Objectives: To assess the performance of a universal adhesive in different application modes in non-carious cervical lesions clinically and by optical coherence tomography (OCT).
Methods: 55 adult patients with three non-carious cervical lesions (NCCL) each participated in the study. Lesions were restored with Scotchbond™ Universal (SBU, 3 M) applied in the self-etch (SBU-SE) and the selective-enamel-etch mode (SBU-SEE) in combination with Filtek™ Supreme XTE (3 M). OptiBond™ FL (OFL, Kerr) was used as a control. Restorations were clinically assessed (FDI criteria) after 14 days, 6 and 12 months and in parallel imaged by OCT (interfacial adhesive defects), starting immediately after filling placement. Cumulative failure rates (CFR) and means of interfacial adhesive defect were statistically evaluated.
Results: After 12 months, CFRs were lower in the SBU groups (0.0% each) than in the OFL group (20.0%, p = 0.001). Clinically, small marginal fractures occurred three times more often in the SBU-SE than in the SBU-SEE group (p = 0.001). Immediately after filling placement and at each reassessment OCT revealed more interfacial defects at enamel interfaces for SBU/SE compared to SBU/SEE and OFL (p ≤ 0.044). At dentin/cement more defects were seen with OFL compared to SBU/SE and SBU/SEE (p ≤ 0.001). Before restoration loss, more interfacial defects appeared compared to remaining restorations (p = 0.132/0.002).
Conclusions: Clinical evaluation and OCT imaging revealed higher interfacial integrity for SBU in both application modes compared to OFL. OCT detected interfacial bond failures prior to clinical deterioration or restoration loss.
Clinical Significance: Scotchbond Universal showed an equivalent or improved bonding performance compared to the reference adhesive. Selective enamel etching is recommended. The parameter interfacial adhesive defect seems to be a valuable predictor for evaluation of adhesive restoration systems.

The oil film formed by the adhesion of crude oil to the resin-asphalt adsorption layer is difficult to peel off due to the strong oil-solid interaction, which severely limits further improvements in oil recovery. Although conventional compound oil displacement systems can effectively reduce oil-water interfacial tension, facilitate oil droplet deformation, and alleviate the Jamin effect, they are insufficient in controlling the wettability of oleophilic rock surfaces. In this paper, sodium nonylphenol polyoxyethylene ether sulfate (NPES) and sodium lauric acid ethanolamine sulfonate (HLDEA) were compounded to construct an efficient oil displacement system that simultaneously achieves wettability control of lipophilic surfaces and ultralow oil-water interfacial tension.

Biomimetic patterning emerges as a promising antibiotic-free approach to protect medical devices from bacterial adhesion and biofilm formation. The main advantage of this approach lies in its simplicity and scalability for industrial applications. In this study, we employ it to produce antibacterial coatings based on silicone materials, widely used in the healthcare industry.

Solid polymer electrolytes (SPEs) have attracted much attention due to their excellent flexibility, strong interfacial adhesion, and good processibility. However, the poor interfacial contact between the separate solid polymer electrolytes and electrodes leads to large interfacial impedance and, thus, hinders Li transport. In this work, an ionic liquid-modified comb-like crosslinked network composite solid-state electrolyte with an integrated electrolyte/cathode structure is prepared by in situ ultraviolet (UV) photopolymerization.
