The bonding strength and color reproducibility of titanium-ceramic prosthesis were analyzed the effect according to the surface treatments of titanium and the glazing temperatures of the low fused porcelain. The result of bonding strength compared with respect to the surface treatments was observed that the STB1 group coated by TiN had strongest boding strength and then came the SB1 group used special bonding agent, the SGB1 group coated by gold in that order. The bonding strength by the glazing temperature was indicated that the group with $770^{\circ}C$ of glazing temperature was observed increasing the bonding strength as compared with it of the other group, and the group with $810^{\circ}C$ of glazing temperature was observed to be decreased the bonding strength. Glazing temperature increases, the color by the surface treatment of titanium influenced the color of titanium-ceramic on account of getting higher brightness(${\Delta}L$). As a this result, the SB1 and SGB3 groups was evaluated to has the best color reproducibility.

PURPOSE. The aim of this in-vitro investigation was to describe the effect of reinforcement with different fibers on impact strength of heat polymerized poly-methyl methacrylate (PMMA) denture base resin and to analyze the effect of surface treatment of the fibers on the impact strength. MATERIALS AND METHODS. The specimens were fabricated from the dies formed as per standard ASTM D4812. 2% by weight of glass, polyethylene and polypropylene fibers were incorporated in the PMMA resin. The Izod impact testing was performed on the unnotched specimens and the values obtained were analyzed using appropriate one way ANOVA, followed by unpaired t-test. Fractured ends of the samples were subjected to the SEM analysis. RESULTS. The polypropylene fibers with plasma treatment showed the highest impact strength ($9.229{\times}10^2$ J/m) followed by the plasma treated polyethylene fibers ($9.096{\times}10^2$ J/m), untreated polypropylene fibers ($8.697{\times}10^2$ J/m), untreated polyethylene fibers ($7.580{\times}10^2$ J/m), silane treated glass fibers ($6.448{\times}10^2$ J/m) and untreated glass fibers ($5.764{\times}10^2$ J/m). Also the surface treatment of all the fibers has shown the significant improvement in impact strength. Findings of the SEM analysis justified the improvement in impact strength after surface treatment. CONCLUSION. Reinforcement with the fiber is an effective method to increase the impact strength of PMMA denture base resin. The surface treatment of fibers further increases the impact strength significantly.

Purpose: Observation of Oxide Film Formation and Bonding Strength according to surface treatment of Co-Cr Alloy for porcelain fused to Metal. Methods: metal specimens $0.5mm{\times}25mm{\times}4mm$ in size were made using Co-Cr alloys for porcelain fused to metal crown (Heraenium P, Tae jung Medis). Dental porcelain $0.5mm{\times}25mm{\times}4mm$ in size was sintered on the metal specimens after changing the etching time, sandblasting condition, and heat treatment temperature. Subsequently, the bonding strength was compared by the three-point flexural strength test using a universal testing machine (UTM) to observe the fracture surface and oxidized layers. Results: With regard to the experimental group treated with acid-etching, Specimen 1 treated for 25 minutes (B-3) showed the highest bonding strength, and Specimen 2 treated only with sandblasting showed the most excellent bonding force at 3.5 bar (C-3). With regard to the experimental group treated with sandblasting at 3.5 bar after acid-etching for 25 minutes, Specimen 3 with heat treatment at $980^{\circ}C$ (D-3) showed the highest bonding strength. Conclusion: The specimen which went through both sandblasting and etching, showed an excellent ceramicmetal bond strength.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect on treatment methods to shear bond strength between composite resin and amalgam when the alloy surface was finished with a diamond wheel or an sandblaster. Forty round acrylic cylinders were fabricated with a diameter of 33mm and a height of 20mm to fit into the device used during shear bond strength testing. A round undercut cavity (diameter, 8mm: depth, 2.5mm) was prepared in the center of the acrylic surface and the cavity was restored using a amalgam. A total of 40 acrylic cylinders with amalgam were divided into 4 groups according to treatment method. The group treatment were as follows : Group 1 : acid etching after finishing the amalgam with diamond wheel Group 2 : no acid etching after finishing the amalgam with diamond wheel Group 3 : acid etching after sandblasting the amalgam Group 4 : no acid etching after sandblasting the amalgam The shear bond strength of composite resin bonded to amalgam of each specimen was tested with a universal testing machine at a crosshead speed of 0.5mm/min and 500kg in full scale. The results were as follow: 1. After diamond finishing, the non-acid etching group had highest shear bond strength with 7.29kg/$cm^2$ and after sandblasting, the acidetching group had lowest shear bond strength with 4.49kg/$cm^2$. 2. In both diamond finishing and sandblasting group, acid etching of the roughened amalgam surface decreased the shear bond strength. 3. The group treated with a diamond wheel had higher shear bond strength those treated with an sandblaster but there was not significanat.

The peel adhesion and plastic deformation in Cu-Cr alloy films, sputter-deposited onto polyimide films, have been studied as a function of Cr content in the film. The adhesion strength has been measured by T-peel test and the amount of plastic deformation in the peeled metal strip was determined qualitatively by XRD technique. Peel adhesion strength has a maximum in the film containing 22-33wt.% Cr and the peel strength of pure Cr film is lower than the maximum. The film having the highest peel strength is deformed most heavily. The effect of Cr content on the peel strength is discussed in terms of the interfacial bond strength and mechanical properties of Cu-Cr alloy film.

This study investigated the shear bond strengths between abrasion-resistant denture teeth and composite resins according to surface treatments. Denture teeth for this study were Trubyte IPN teeth(Dentsply Inc., USA) with interpenetrating polymer network and Endura Posterio (Shofu Inc. Japan) of composite resin teeth, and restorative composite resins were Clearfil FII (Kuraray, Japan) of the self-cured composite resin and Z100(3M Dental Product, USA) of the light-cured composite resin. Five different surface treatments were evaluated: (1) $50{\mu}m\;A1_2O_3$ sandblasting: (2) #100 carbide paper; (3) chloroform; (4) retentive holes; and (5) no treatment. After surface treatments, denture teeth were examined by scanning electron microscopy(SEM), and the maximum shear bond strengths between abrasion-resistant denture teeth and composite resins were measured using Instron. The results were as follows; 1. IPN teeth treated with sandblasting had the highest shear bond strength, and Endura treated with sandblasting and carbide paper had significantly greater shear bond strength than with any other surface treatment. 2. Regardless or composite resins, the shear bond strength on Endura was greater than on IPN teeth. 3. Regardless of denture teeth, the shear bond strength of Clearfil FII was greater han of Z100. 4. In appearance of SEM, IPN teeth treated with sandblasting showed generalized roughness on the all of surface, however, carbide paper treatment resulted in partly rough. Endura treated with sandblasting and carbide paper showed similar surface characteristics. Wetting denture teeth surface with chloroform removed the debris and created a particle-free and smooth surface.

WC-( $Ti_{1-x}$ A $l_{x}$) N coatings of constant changing Al concentration were deposited on S45C substrates by high-ionization sputtered PVD method. The Al concentration could be controlled by using evaporation source for Al and fixing the evaporation rate of the metals (i.e, WC- $Ti_{0.86}$A $l_{0.14}$N, WC- $Ti_{0.72}$A $l_{0.28}$N, and WC- $Ti_{0.58}$A $l_{0.42}$N). The corrosion behavior of WC-( $Ti_{1-x}$ A $l_{x}$)N coatings in a deaerated 3.5% NaCl solution was investigated by electrochemical corrosion tests and surface analyses. The measured galvanic corrosion currents between coating and substrate indicated that WC- $Ti_{0.72}$A $l_{0.28}$N coating showed the best resistance of the coating tested. The results of potentiodynamic polarization tests showed that the WC- $Ti_{0.72}$A $l_{0.28}$N coating deposited with 32W/c $m^2$ of Al target revealed higher corrosion resistance. This indicated that the WC- $Ti_{0.72}$A $l_{0.28}$N coating is effective in improving corrosion resistance. In EIS, the WC- $Ti_{0.72}$A $l_{0.28}$N coating showed one time constant loop and increased a polarization resistance of coating ( $R_{coat}$) relative to other samples. Compositional variations of WC-( $Ti_{1-x}$ A $l_{x}$)N coatings were analyzed by EDS and XRD analysis was performed to evaluate the crystal structure and compounds formation behavior. Surface morphologies of the films were observed using SEM and AFM. Scratch test was performed to measure film adhesion strength.strength. adhesion strength.strength.

We have investigated the relationship between the polar anchoring energy and the surface order parameter in nematic liquid crystal (NLC), 4-n-pentyl-4-cyanobiphenyl (5CB), on the two kinds of the weakly rubbed polyimide (PI) surfaces. The observed polar anchoring energy of 5CB is approximately 2${\times}10^{-4}(J/m^2$) and then increases with increasing the rubbing strength (RS) on weakly rubbed surface (RS=57mm) with side chain at $30^{\circ}C$; same results are obtained on weakly rubbed PI surface without side chain. The surface order parameter of 5CB on rubbed PI surfaces increases with increasing the RS at a weak rubbing region. The surface order parameter of 5CB is strongly related to the characteristics of PI material. Consequently, we suggest that the polar anchoring energy of NLC is strongly attributed to the surface order parameter on rubbed PI surfaces.
