Background: Several interfacial surface treatments of zirconia surfaces have been proposed to improve adhesion to ceramic veneering. However, information regarding the durability and effect of such treatments on the bond strength following such treatments is lacking.
Aim Of The Study: This study aimed to evaluate the shear bond strength between veneering ceramic and zirconia core after different interfacial surface treatments.
Materials And Methods: Fifty-two discs (8 mm in diameter and 3 mm in height) were fabricated from zirconia blanks using a microtome cutting machine. Zirconia discs were divided into four groups (n = 13). Group I was subjected to air-borne abrasion using (AlO), group II was coated by bioglass, group III was coated with ZirLiner, and group IV was subjected to wash firing (sprinkle technique). A cylinder (4 mm in diameter and 3 mm in height) of veneering ceramic was fired on top of the zirconia core. Shear bond strength (SBS) between zirconia core and veneering ceramic was evaluated by using a universal testing machine. The data was collected and statistically analysed using One-Way ANOVA followed by multiple pairwise comparisons using Bonferroni adjusted significance level. The failure modes were assessed using a stereomicroscope for each group.
Results: The highest mean bond strength was recorded in group III (17.98 ± 2.51 MPa), followed by group II (15.10 ± 4.53 MPa), then group I 14.65 ± 2.97 MPa. The lowest mean bond strength was recorded in group IV (13.28 ± 3.55 MPa).
Conclusions: Surface treatments had an effect on the zirconia-veneer shear bond strength. Liner coating revealed the highest shear bond strength values, significantly higher in comparison to wash firing (sprinkle technique) .

Pnictogen bond (PnB) occurring on the group-15 elements is recognized as σ- or π-hole-based interaction that has garnered attention in the fields of anion recognition and organocatalysis. Due to the polyvalent feature of pnictogens and high directionality, PnB possesses potential in the design of convergent coassembled materials with acceptors containing lone pair electrons or anions, which however is rarely explored so far. Herein, we unveil the role of antimony (Sb)-based PnB donors in producing self-assembled chiroptical materials with lone pair electron containing acceptors.

2,2'-Thio-bis(4,6-dichlorophenol), namely bithionol, is a small molecule endowed with a multifaceted bioactivity. Its peculiar polychlorinated phenolic structure makes it a suitable candidate to explore its potentialities in establishing interaction patterns with enzymes of MedChem interest, such as the human carbonic anhydrase (hCA) metalloenzymes. Herein, bithionol was tested on a panel of specific hCAs through the stopped-flow technique, showing a promising micromolar inhibitory activity for the hCA II isoform.

Stretchable elastic materials with high strength, toughness, and good ionic conductivity are highly desirable for wearable devices and stretchable batteries. Unfortunately, limited success has been reported to attain all of these properties simultaneously. Here, we report a family of ionically conductive elastomers (ICEs) without compromise between mechanical properties (high stiffness, reversible elasticity, fracture resistance) and ionic conductivity, by introducing a multiple network elastomer (MNE) architecture into a low polymer.

Article Synopsis
- The study evaluates the fracture strength of 1 mm-thick CAD/CAM occlusal veneers made from lithium disilicate (LD) and resin nanoceramics (RNC) to assess their viability in dental restoration.
- Using a novel testing protocol, the RNC group demonstrated a significantly higher load-bearing capacity compared to the LD group, indicating better durability under stress.
- Both materials experienced similar crack patterns during testing, emphasizing the importance of understanding mechanical properties for ensuring the longevity of dental restorations.
