Abstract
Durability of adhesion between stainless steel or acrylic resin and precious metals treated with bis(2-acrylamidoethyl)disulfide(BAEDS)was evaluated using PMMA/MMA-TBBO resin and experimental fluoropolymer/MMA-TBBO resin.Changes in tensile bond strength were tested after thermal stress cycling in water.Treatment with BAEDS containing disulfide bond was effective for gold and its alloys.However, durability against thermal stress depended on the type of adherends and resin.Adhesion of acrylic resin with PMMA/MMA resin debonded after a small number of thermocycles.
