Objective: Chemicals used during canal disinfection and endodontic sealers have a deleterious effect on dentin bond strength. The aim of this study was to evaluate a novel clinical sequence to improve the resin-dentin microtensile bond strength (μTBS) to endodontically treated teeth.

Materials And Methods: Twenty human molars were distributed in four experimental groups (n = 5, N = 20): C-control group without exposure to any endodontic chemical substances (2.5% sodium hypochlorite, 17% EDTA and endodontic cement); LDh-late dentin hybridization (Dh) with Dh at the time of final restoration, after exposure to chemical substances; IPDS-immediate pre-endodontic dentin sealing, with Dh before exposure to chemical substances; and PLDh-late Dh after exposure to chemical substances and after dentin repreparation with ultrasonic diamond tip. Teeth were restored with resin composite and the microtensile test was performed after 24 h.

Results: The highest bond strength values were found in the PLDh, IPDS, and C groups, without statistically significant differences among them. The lowest value was found in the LDh group. The LDh group presented a decrease of 70% when compared with the control group.

Conclusion: The resin-dentin microtensile bond strength was significantly improved by dentin hybridization before exposure to chemicals used during endodontics. Otherwise, substantial dentin repreparation is necessary to restore the bond strength after this exposure.

Clinical Significance: Early dentin hybridization (IPDS) before endodontic treatment not only improves the microtensile bond strength to dentin but also omitting this procedure would require significant repreparation of the exposed dentin after endodontic treatment to restore the bond strength. Hence, it allows the preservation of healthy tooth structure (no need for repreparation), as well as the reinforcement of weakened cusps and improvement of isolation (if combined with deep margin elevation, when necessary).

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 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.
