p-DCPD (poly dicyclopentadiene) is the resin that the versatile mechanical properties can be changeable via the control of inner monomer and catalysts. In this work, to improve the strength of composites, surface treated MGF (milled glass fiber) was used as an reinforcement in p-DCPD by molybdenum (Mo) catalyst matrix. The optimum concentration of surface treatment was obtained and the cohesion of MGF themselves increased with concentration. In case of 0.2 wt% silane concentration, the maximized mechanical properties of MGF/p-DCPD composite exhibited because of minimized MGF cohesion. When butyl silane showing minimizing cohesion was used as the optimized alkyl length, high tensile and flexure strength exhibited due to the steric hindrance effect among MGFs. Mechanical and their fractured surfaces of MGF/p-DCPD composites was compared for 4 different chemical functional groups. Norbornene functional groups containing similar chemical structure to DCPD matrix exhibited higher interfacial adhesion between MGFs and DCPD matrix.

The composite fiber adsorbents containing amidoxime group were prepared and separation properties of uranium ion from seawater were investigated. The amount of uranium adsorption was increased with an increase in adsorption time. When the mole ratio of monomer and comonomer, such as acrylonitrile (AN), tetraethyleneglycol dimethacrylate(TEGMA), and divinylbenzene (DVB), were 1 :0. 1 :0.003, this resin showed the maximum adsorption ability for uranium at a level of pH 8. The amount of uranium adsorption was also increased linearly to one hour with an increase in the content of adsorbent which was added in the composite fiber adsorbents(CFA). The maximum adsorption for uranium of CF A showed at $25^{\circ}C$. Hence, the adsorption ability of CF A for calcium and magnecium ions were increased gradually by the recycling of adsorption and disorption, the adsorption content of their on were 0.3, 0.9mmole/g-adsorbents, respectly. It also showed that the adsorption contents of Ca and \1g ions were much lower than them of uranium. The desorption of uranium on the CF A was carried out , bout 100% within 30min, and the desorption rate of various CF A were equalled.

The physical properties of polymer are greatly influenced by the extent to which a resin cures. The presence of un reacted monomer can, have a plasticizing effect on the polymer, thereby altering the physical and mechanical properties of dentin bonding agent (DBA). If the DBA does not polymerize sufficiently, it will leave a weak bonding layer and lead to lower bond strength. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the shear bond strengths(SBS) and the degree of conversion (DC) of 4 commercialy avilable dentin bonding systems which are composed of 2 multi-bottle systems [Scotchbond Multi-Purpose (SMP), AeliteBond(AB)] and 2 onebottle systems [SingleBond(SB), One-Step(OS)]. For shear bond strength measurement, labial surfaces of freshly extracted bovine incisors were ground with # 600 grit SiC paper to expose dentin. Four different groups of samples were formed, with 10 samples. being made for each of the 4 commercial DBA in each group according to the curing sequences of DBA and overlayer thickness of composites: Group I (standard cure and 1mm thick composites) : The DBA was light cured and the composites of 1mm thickness was applied ; Group II (standard cure and 2mm thick composites) : The DBA was light cured and the composites of 2mm thickness was applied; Group III (simultaneous cure and 1mm thick composites) : The DBA was not light-cured and simultaneously cured with composites of 1mm thickness; Group N (simultaneous cure and 2mm thick composites) : The DBA was. not light-cured and simultaneously cured with composites of 2mm thickness. The SBS was measured immediately after the composites was bonded to the bovine dentin using an Instron machine. The DC of the DBA was examined in a thin film under simulated conditions of the experimental groups according to the curing sequences and overlayer thickness of composites in the SBS test. using a Fourier transform Infrared(FTIR) spectrometer. The following results were obtained from SBS tests and DC measurements 1. In SBS tests, the multi-bottle DBA(SMP, AB) had a generally higher bond strength values than the one bottle DBA(SB, OS). In DC measurements, the one bottle DBA(SB, OS) had a significantly higher DC than the multi-bottle DBA(SMP, AB). 2. In all DBAs except OS, there was no significant difference between the bond strength of group I (standard cure and 1mm thick composites) and that of group III (simultaneous cure and 1mm thick composites). SMP, SB in Group I had a significantly higher DC than those in group III, but AB, OS in group I had a significantly lower DC than those in group III 3. All DBAs in Goup II (standard cure and 2mm thick composites) had significantly higher bond strength and DC than those in Group N (simultaneous cure and 2mm thick composites). 4. In all DBAs, there was no significantly different SBS and DC between Group I and Group II, but all DBAs in Group III had significantly higher SBS and DC than those in Group IV.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the shear bond strength between Ni-Cr alloy and composite resin using universal adhesive systems coMPared to conventional method using metal primers. Materials and methods: For this study, a total of 120 cast commercial Ni-Cr alloy (Vera Bond 2V) disks were embedded in acrylic resin, and their surfaces were smoothed with silicon carbide papers and airborne-particle abrasion. Specimens of each metal were divided into 6 groups based on the combination of metal primers (Metal primer II, Alloy primer, Metal & Zirconia primer, MKZ primer) and universal adhesive systems (Single Bond Universal, All Bond Universal). All specimens were stored in distilled water at $37^{\circ}C$ for 24 hours. Shear bond strength testing was performed with a universal testing machine at a cross head speed of 1 m/min. Data (MPa) were analyzed using one-way ANOVA and the post hoc Tukey's multiple comparison test (${\alpha}$=.05). Results: There were significant differences between Single Bond Universal, All Bond Universal, Metal Primer II and Alloy Primer, MKZ Primer, Metal & Zirconia Primer (P<.001). Conclusion: Universal Adhesive system groups indicated high shear bond strength value bonded to Ni-Cr alloy than that of conventional system groups using primers except Metal Primer II. Within the limitations of this study, improvement of universal adhesive systems which can be applied to all types of restorations is recommended especially non-precious metal alloy. More research is needed to evaluate the effect of silane inclusion or exclusion in universal adhesive systems.
