The preceramic polymer perhydropolysilazane (PHPS) is an attractive candidate as a coating material to prevent discoloration of veneering resin composites. At the present time, however, a practical method to apply this material is not available. The purpose of this study was to establish a low-temperature method for applying a silica film coating to a veneering resin composite. Two types of PHPS, NP and NL, were coated onto a veneering resin composite. The specimens were exposed to hydrogen peroxide vapor at 97˚C, and the state of the conversion process was evaluated using FT-IR. With exposure to the hydrogen peroxide vapor, a 0.5-µm-thick silica film similar to that produced by baking was formed on the surface of the NP samples in 10 min, while a 0.2-µm-thick film was formed on the NL in 15 min. The silica coating method described in this study may mitigate the discoloration of veneering resin composite.
