Objective: To examine the effects of six whitening mouthwashes on tooth color and immediate bond strength to the enamel.

Materials And Methods: Human incisors were divided into seven groups (n = 10) according to mouthwashes (R.O.C.S Black Edition White, Splat White Plus, Colgate Plax White Charcoal, Signal White Now, Listerine Advanced White, Colgate Optic White, and distilled water). After the initial color measurements, the teeth were exposed to mouthwash for 4 weeks. Then, the color measurements were repeated. Then, cylindrical composite resin blocks were immediately applied to the enamel surfaces and subjected to shear bond strength tests. Data were analyzed using Kruskal-Wallis and Bonferroni tests (α = 0.05).

Results: Δ𝑏, Δ𝐿, and ΔE values did not present significant differences among the groups. Significant differences among the groups were determined for Δ𝑎 and ΔWI values (p < 0.05). R.O.C.S Black Edition White and Splat White Plus produced clinically acceptable color changes. Signal White Now, Splat White Plus, and Listerine Advanced White created acceptable whiteness changes. The mouthwashes did not statistically affect the bond strength compared to the distilled water (p > 0.05).

Conclusions: Whitening mouthwash containing blue covarine revealed more acceptable color and whitening changes. Mouthwash containing charcoal led to the lowest enamel bond strength values.

Clinical Significance: The content of whitening mouthwashes affected the degree of tooth whitening and shear bond strength to enamel.

Three new hexagonal perovskites with CsMMRhCl (M = Na, Ag; M = Mn, Fe) stoichiometry have been synthesized from solution precipitation reactions. These air-stable compounds crystallize as triply cation-ordered variants of the 6H perovskite structure. This structure contains octahedra that share a common face to form MRhCl dimers that are arranged on a two-dimensional triangular network.

Nowadays, much attention is paid to the development of high-performance and multifunctional materials, but it is still a great challenge to obtain polymer materials with high mechanical properties, high self-healing properties, and multifunctionality in one. Herein, an innovative strategy is proposed to obtain a satisfactory waterborne polyurethane (PMWPU-Bx) by in situ anchoring 3-aminophenylboronic acid (3-APBA) in a pyrene-capped waterborne polyurethane (PMWPU) via supramolecular interactions. The multiple functional sites inherent in 3-APBA can produce supramolecular interactions with groups on PMWPU, promoting the aggregation of hard domains in the polymer network, which confers the PMWPU-Bx strength (7.

This study examines the intricate area of refractory-based high entropy alloys (RHEAs), focusing on a series of complex compositions involving nine diverse refractory elements: Ti, V, Cr, Zr, Nb, Mo, Hf, Ta, and W. We investigate the phase stability, bonding interactions, electronic structures, lattice distortions, mechanical, and thermal properties of six RHEAs with varying elemental ratios using VASP and OLCAO DFT calculations. Through comprehensive analysis, we investigate the impact of elemental variations on the electronic structure, interacting bond dynamics, lattice distortion, thermodynamic, mechanical, and thermal properties within these RHEAs, providing an insight into how these specific elemental variations in composition give rise to changes in the calculated properties in ways that would guide future experimental and computational efforts.

A Microwave-Strengthened Supramolecular Adhesive: from Flexible Pressure Sensitive Bonding to Strong and Muti-Reusable Hot Melt Bonding.

Small

Key Laboratory of Organic Optoelectronics & Molecular Engineering, Department of Chemistry, Tsinghua University, Beijing, 100084, P. R. China.

A microwave-strengthened supramolecular adhesive by introducing maleic acid amide bonds into the cross-linked networks of catechol-based monomers and iron oxide nanoparticles is reported. Under microwave irradiation, the supramolecular adhesive can be rapidly heated up, causing the transformation from maleic acid amide bonds to maleimide bonds and thus the increase of its cohesive strength. The supramolecular adhesive can flexibly bond substrates like pressure sensitive adhesives during the bonding procedure and shows an adhesion strength of 0.
