Abstract
- Objectives: To evaluate the effect of the filler content in the cohesive strength (sigma), Weibull modulus (m) and degree of conversion (DC) of an experimental adhesive system.<br />Methods: A HEMA/Bis-GMA/TEGDMA-based adhesive was formulated and filled with silica nanofillers in the following weight percentages (wt%): R0=0%; R1=1%; R3=3%; R5=5% and R10=10%. The adhesive of Adper Scotchbond Multi-Purpose (SBMP) system was used as a commercial reference. Twenty dumbbell-shaped specimens with cross-sectional area of 0.5mm(2) were made per group and tensile tested with a crosshead speed of 0.5mm/min until fracture. The cohesive strength was calculated in MPa. DC was obtained through FTIR after light curing for 25s. Data were submitted to one-way ANOVA and Tukey's test (alpha=0.05) and to Weibull analysis.<br />Results: Mean sigma results were: R0=65.4+/-8.4; R1=73.2+/-8.8; R3=72.0+/-8.4; R5=73.1+/-9.7; R10=85.5+/-13.1 and SBMP=79.0+/-11.0MPa. R10 presented the highest sigma, while R0 showed the lowest. R5 and SBMP did not differ significantly (p<0.05). Weibull analysis revealed no significant difference in structural reliability between groups. The experimental adhesives presented similar results of DC, which, in turn, were significantly higher than the SBMP.<br />Conclusions: The addition of 10% filler in weight improves the cohesive strength of the adhesive, not interfering in the structural reliability or the degree of conversion.
