Abstract

In order to clarify the effect of fluorination of an adhesive resin on the durability of the resin bond to precious metal alloys, 2,2,2-trifluoroethyl methacrylate (TFEMA)-poly(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl methacrylate) (PTFEMA)/TBBO adhesive resin was prepared. The tensile bond strength of this resin to precious metal alloys treated with 9,10-epithiodecyl methacrylate (EP8MA) generally increased in the order Ag alloy
