Nonthermal Atmospheric Plasma Promotes Bonding Between Adhesive Monomers and Zirconia
The mechanism of how NTAP improved common adhesive monomers interacting with zirconia surfaces was revealed in this study. NTAP, as a relatively high energy-boosting method, could not only improve the surface affinity of zirconia and chemical bonding in-between monomers and zirconia but also enhance the polymerization of different monomers onto zirconia, resulting in improved bonding properties. Thus, further exploration of versatile bonding materials and/or onto different dental substrates could take this into account.
