Swelling equilibrium of dentin adhesive polymers formed on the water–adhesive phase boundary: Experiments and micromechanical model

Abstract: During their application to the wet, oral environment, dentin adhesives can experience phase separation and composition change which can compromise the quality of the hybrid layer formed at the dentin-adhesive interface. The chemical composition of polymer phases formed in the hybrid layer can be represented using a ternary water-adhesive phase diagram. In this paper, these polymer phases have been characterized using a suite of mechanical tests and swelling experiments. The experimental results were evaluated… Show more

“…Less water miscibility will cause phase separation when monomer resins are cured in the wet, oral environment [28] leading to polymerized adhesive with a range of compositions and mechanical characteristics [41]. This phase separation can inhibit the formation of a structurally integrated bond at the composite/adhesive/tooth interface[39, 40] .…”

“…The variation of the dissolved oxygen under in vitro and in vivo conditions may be a significant factor influencing the photopolymerization behavior of these samples. High degree of conversion of the hydrophilic-rich phase at the miscibility limit may still yield a degradable polymer or a polymer with very poor mechanical integrity due to the low cross-linking density (Misra et al 2014). Degradation of poorly polymerized hydrophilic-rich phases would result in leaching of HEMA and low-molecular-weight degradants into the surrounding tissues.…”

“…In the presence of excess moisture, dentin adhesives can undergo phase separation into hydrophobic and hydrophilic-rich phases, leading to limited infiltration of the cross-linker into the wet, demineralized dentin matrix (Spencer and Wang 2002;Toledano et al 2012). A ternary phase diagram of model dentin adhesive composed of hydrophobic bisphenol A glycerolate dimethacrylate (BisGMA), hydrophilic 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA), and water (Ye et al 2011) has been used to determine quantitatively water miscibility, solubility, and phase partitioning behavior of dentin adhesive (Ye et al 2013;Misra et al 2014). The composition of the model hydrophilic-rich phase was determined quantitatively, and the results indicated limited cross-linkable dimethacrylate monomer and photoinitiators in the hydrophilic-rich phase (Ye et al 2012).…”

“…These ultrasonic experiments were performed for saturated samples at high frequencies (5–10 MHz). Under these high frequencies, a typically stiffer response is obtained for water‐saturated materials owing to the inability of unbound water to migrate under loading, leading to undrained conditions . Also, a dimensional analysis of their expression for elastic modulus appears to indicate some inconsistency.…”

“…Clearly, there are intrinsic merits to understanding how these components perform individually as these insights can be used to better engineer the a–d interface. In our previous study, we reported on the mechanical behavior of the dentin adhesive and the various phases it forms when polymerized in the presence of water under different loading conditions and moisture exposure . In this article, we focus upon the viscoelastic behavior of the collagen–adhesive composites, under conditions that simulate the wet functional environment found in the oral cavity.…”
