Statement Of Problem: Retention is essential for maxillofacial prosthesis. Adhesives are commonly used for retention because of their simplicity, availability, and cost-effectiveness. Studies that have estimated the differences in bond strength between the types of adhesives and the impact of reapplication are sparse.

Purpose: The purpose of this observational clinical study was to estimate the peel bond strength and reapplication effects of water-based and silicone-based adhesives at 0, 24, and 48 hours.

Material And Methods: A total of 46 participants were enrolled, with 23 participants in each adhesive test group-water-based and silicone-based adhesive. Silicone elastomeric strips were attached to the ventral aspect of the participants' forearm 5 cm away from the radial styloid prominence. The strength of each adhesive group was tested at 0 hours, and its reapplication effects were evaluated at 24 and 48 hours. The peel bond strength was estimated by using a universal testing machine, and the data were recorded in N/m and statistically analyzed by the independent Student t test and Spearman rho correlation coefficient tests (α=.05).

Results: The mean ±standard deviation of peel bond strength at 0 hours for silicone-based adhesive (111.5 ±2.5 N/m) was higher than that for water-based adhesive (99.9 ±3.9 N/m) (P<.001). On reapplication, the silicone-based adhesive had a higher peel bond strength (113.5 ±2.8 N/m) than the water-based adhesive (105.2 ±3.0 N/m) (P<.001). The results were statistically significant between the 2 groups at different time intervals (P=.04).

Conclusions: The mean peel bond strength of the silicone-based adhesive was higher than that of the water-based adhesive. The reapplication of adhesives improved the bond strength in both the groups.

Dative bonds are typically polar, weaker, and longer than electron-sharing covalent bonds. The intriguing diatomic BeF anion uniquely exhibits triple Be-F dative bonding with a considerable bond dissociation energy (BDE) of 88 kcal/mol. Here, we report exceptionally strong dative-bonded systems, [CO]BeF and [CO]BeF, with BDE values exceeding 155 kcal/mol by integrating [CO] and [CO] groups into the BeF framework.

Mechanical bonds arise between molecules that contain interlocked subunits, such as one macrocycle threaded through another. Within polymers, these linkages will confer distinctive mechanical properties and other emergent behaviors, but polymerizations that form mechanical bonds efficiently and use simple monomeric building blocks are rare. In this work, we introduce a solid-state polymerization in which one monomer infiltrates crystals of another to form a macrocycle and mechanical bond at each repeat unit of a two-dimensional (2D) polymer.

Watson-Crick and Hoogsteen hydrogen bonds aid the formation of highly ordered structures in genomic DNA that dynamically govern genetic modes such as gene regulation and replication. Hence, measuring and distinguishing these two types of hydrogen bonds in different DNA contexts are essential for understanding DNA architectures. However, due to their transient nature and minimal structure differences at the sub-nanometer scale, differentiating Watson-Crick hydrogen bonds from Hoogsteen hydrogen bonds is difficult.
