The purpose of this study was to compare the microshear bond strength of a self-etching primer adhesive to dentin prepared with different diamond points, carbide burs and SiC papers, and also to determine which SiC paper yield similar strength to that of dentinal surface prepared with points or burs. Fifty-six human molar were sectioned to expose the occlusal dentinal surfaces of crowns and slabs of 1.2 mm thick were made. Dentinal surfaces were removed with three diamond points, two carbide burs, and three SiC papers. They were divided into one of eight equal groups (n = 7); Group 1: standard diamond point(TF-12), Group 2: fine diamond point (TF-12F), Group 3: extrafine diamond point (TF-12EF), Group 4: plain-cut carbide bur (no. 245), Group 5: cross-cut carbide bur (no. 557), Group 6 : P 120-grade SiC paper, Group 7: P 220-grade SiC paper, Group 8: P 800-grade SiC paper. Clearfil SE Bond was applied on dentinal surface and Clearfil AP-X was placed on dentinal surface using Tygon tubes. After the bonded specimens were subjected to uSBS testing, the mean uSBS (n = 20 for each group) was statistically compared using one-way ANOV A and Tukey HSD test. In conclusion, the use of extrafine diamond point is recommended for improved bonding of Clearfil SE Bond to dentin. Also the use of P 220-grade SiC paper in vitro will be yield the results closer to dentinal surface prepared with fine diamond point or carbide burs in vivo.

This study compared the microtensile bond strength $({\mu}TBS)$ of three single step adhesives to dentin. Occlusal superficial dentin was exposed in fifteen human molars. They were assigned to three groups by used adhesives: Xeno group (Xeno III). Prompt group (Adper Prompt L-Pop). AQ group (AQ Bond). Each adhesive was applied to dentin surface. and composite of same manufacturer was constructed. The bonded specimens were sectioned into sticks with an interface area approximately $1mm^2$, and subjected to $\mu$ TBS testing with a crosshead speed of 1mm/minute. The results of this study were as follows; 1. The ${\mu}TBS$ to dentin was $48.78\pm9.83MPa$ for Xeno III. $30.22\pm4.52MPa$ for Adper Prompt L-Pop. and $26.31\pm7.07MPa$ for AQ Bond. 2. The mean ${\mu}TBS$ of Xeno group was significantly higher than that of Prompt group and AQ group (p<0.05). 3. There was no significant difference between the ${\mu}TBS$ of Prompt group and AQ group.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate clinical applicability of light cured glass ionomer cement as a othodontic adhesive. The metal brackets and plastic brackets were bonded with light cured glass ionomer cement(Fuji Ortho $LS^{(R)}$) after polishing with a slurry of pumice, surface conditioning with 10% polyacrylic acid and chemically cured resin(Mono-$Lok2^{(R)}$) after acid etching with 38% phosphoric acid on the extracted human bicuspids. The shear bond strength was tested with a universal testing machine(HGS-100A, Shimadzu Co., Japan) after storage in normal saline at $37^{\circ}C$ or 24 hours and 48 hours. The results were as follows: 1. The shear bond strength of light cured glass ionomer cement group polished with a slurry of pumice was significantly lower than that of chemically cured resin group(P<0.01). 2. The shear bond strength of light cured glass ionomer cement group conditioned with 10% polyacrylic acid was significantly lower than that of chemically cured resin group(P<0.01). 3. The shear bond strength of light cued glass ionorner cement group conditioned with 10% polyacrylic acid was slightly higher than that of light cured glass ionomer cement group polished with a slurry of pumice, but there was no significant difference(P>0.05). 4. There was no significant difference between metal bracket group and plastic bracket group irrelevant off enamel conditioning(P>005). In summary, although the shear bond strength of light cured glass lionomer cement was lower than that of chemically cured resin, it night be clinically applicable.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of the surface treatments of resin bases in indirect bracket bonding technique by study of shear bond strengths and failure patterns. Ninety metal brackets were bonded to the stone models of specimens involving bovine lower incisor with light-cured adhesive(Light-Bond). After removal of brackets with the resin base from the stone models, the surfaces of resin bases in thirty brackets were treated with Plastic Conditioner and the surfaces of resin bases in another thirty brackets were treated with sandblaster and the remaining thirty brackets were served as controls. All brackets were transferred to the specimens and bonded using sealant. The shear bond strength was tested on universal testing machine, and failure pattern was assessed with the adhesive remnant index(ARI). The results were as follows: 1. Surface treatments of resin bases with Plastic Conditioner or sandblasting showed statistically higher shear bond strengths than no treatment group. 2. No significant difference in shear bond strength was found between Plastic Conditioner treatment and sandblasting treatment groups. 3. No significant difference in ARI scores was found among the three groups. 4. As the result of correlation analysis between shear bond strengths and hnl scores, failure at adhesive/bracket base interface tends to increase when the shear bond strength was high, but it was not significant statistically. The above results suggest that improvement of bond strength can be obtained by surface treatment of resin base in the indirect bonding technique.

This study was performed to compare the shear bond strength of orthodontic adhesive to amalgam according to different light sources (halogen-based light and light emitting diode (LED)) and amalgam surface treatments. Ninety extracted human premolars were randomly divided into 6 groups (4 experimental and 2 control groups) of 15 by light sources and surface treatments. Orthodontic brackets were bonded and shear bond strength was measured with an Instron universal testing machine. The findings were as follows: The bond strength of adhesive to amalgam surface was 3-5.5 MPa which was lower than that of acid-etched enamel (19 MPa) control. In the sandblasted amalgam surface, the shear bond strength of the halogen light group was higher than that of the LED group (p < 0.05) but. in the non-treated amalgam surface. there was no significant difference in the shear bond strength according to the light sources (p> 0.05). Within the same light source. sandblasting had no significant effect on the shear bond strength of the adhesive bonded to amalgam surface (p > 0.05). There was no significant difference in shear bond strength according to the light sources in acid-etched enamel control groups. This results suggest that there can be a limit in using light curing adhesives when brackets are bonded to an amalgam surface. Additional clinical studies are necessary before routine use of halogen light and LED light curing units can be recommended in bonding brackets to an amalgam surface.

The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of different light direction exposure times and setting times when using plasma arc light on shear bond strength of metal brackets. 240 extracted human premolars were randomly assigned to one of 16 groups Standardized brackets were bonded to enamel using different light curing units (Plasma arc light and Halogen light), exposure times (Plasma arc light 2. 4, 6 seconds and Halogen light 20 seconds). and light directions [Vertical direction [V] and Oblique direction [O]). 8 groups were tested after 5 minutes and the remaining 8 groups after 24 hours. The metal brackets were bonded with Transbond XT. Shear bond strength was measured by a universal testing machine. The results were as fellows: There were as differences between the shear bond strengths of the Vertical groups (V) and Oblique groups (O). regardless of exposure times and types of light curing units (p>0.05). The shear bond strength of the group with 2 seconds of plasma light were significantly lower than other exposure time groups (P<0.05). The shear bond strength tested after 5 minutes was lower than after 24 hours (p<0.05) The Adhesive Remment Index (ARI) score showed no statistically significant difference among the different groups. The results of this study suggested that the light direction of plasma arc light had no influence on the shear bond strength of metal brackets to enamel. and exposure times more than 4 seconds produced shear bond strengths similar to those Produced with a conventional halogen curing light.

This study verified the stability of a high-strength combined buried pile retaining wall and its applicability in the field. A cast-in-place (C.I.P) retaining wall and the high-strength combined embedded pile retaining wall were compared and analyzed numerically. The numerical analysis assessed the ground behavior and stability (and thus field applicability) of a high-strength combined buried pile retaining wall using data measured in the field. The experimental results showed that the cross-sectional force and displacement of the high-strength bonded pile retaining wall were reduced by 13.6~19.7%, the shear force increased by 0.7~4.7%, and the bending moment increased by 4.5~8.8% relative to the values for the C.I.P retaining wall. Examination of the amount of subsidence in the ground around the excavation showed that the maximum settlement of the C.I.P retaining wall was 46.89 mm and that at the high-strength combined buried pile retaining wall was 39.37 mm. Overall, designing a high-strength combined embedded pile retaining wall by applying the maximum bending moment and shear force calculated using the elastic beam method to the site ground was shown to achieve the safety of all members, as member forces were generated within the elastic region.

대기압 저온 플라즈마는 간단한 구조 및 제작, 쉬운 조작성, 낮은 온도 특성, 높은 화학적 반응성과 같은 많은 장점에도 불구하고, 플라즈마의 에너지가 낮아 다양한 산업적 응용에 제약을 받아왔다. 이러한 단점을 극복하기 위해서 대기압에서 저온 플라즈마의 에너지를 높이는 여러 시도가 있었으며, 그 중 가까이 인접해 있는 둘 이상의 플라즈마 젯들의 결합 현상(plasma jet-to-jet coupling)을 이용하여 플라즈마 강도를 높이려는 시도가 보고되었다. 본 연구에서는 플라즈마를 발생시키는 유리관을 서로 모아 벌집모양의 배열을 갖는 플라즈마 젯 어레이 장치를 만들어 플라즈마 젯 사이에 상호결합을 유도하여 강한 플라즈마 발광을 발생시켰다. 플라즈마 젯 어레이 장치 중 가운데 위치한 플라즈마 젯은 대기압 플라즈마 젯의 형태를 구현하는 역할을 하고, 가운데를 둘러싼 주변의 여러 플라즈마 젯들은 중앙의 플라즈마 젯에 많은 하전입자를 제공하여 플라즈마 젯의 발광강도를 높이는 역할을 하는 것을 확인했다. 헬륨기체를 사용한 이 플라즈마 젯은 $100^{\circ}C$ 이하의 온도임에도 불구하고 ITO 유리의 유리면을 식각할 만큼 높은 에너지를 가졌다. 이러한 대기압 저온플라즈마 장치에서 플라즈마의 강도를 더 높이기 위해서는 플라즈마 젯 간 결합이 더 많이 일어나는 것이 중요하므로, 이를 위해 주변의 플라즈마 젯의 개수를 높이는 시도를 하였다. 플라즈마 젯 어레이 소자의 중심에 위치한 유리관의 크기를 크게 하고, 주변부의 유리관의 크기를 상대적으로 작게 하여 벌집형태의 배열보다 더 많은 유리관을 주변부에 위치시킨 후 플라즈마를 발생시키고 전기 광학적 특성을 측정하였다. 그 결과, 실험조건에 따라 가운데 플라즈마 젯에서 3배에서 5배 이상 높은 플라즈마의 발광강도를 얻었으며, 플라즈마 젯도 더 안정적으로 발생하였다. 주변부의 유리관의 개수가 증가하면 더 많은 양의 하전 입자들이 플라즈마 결합 과정에 참여하게 되고 결과적으로 더 큰 플라즈마의 발광강도를 나타내는 것이다. 본 실험은 하전입자의 상호작용에 의해 발생하는 서로 인접한 플라즈마 젯 간의 결합이 대기압 저온 플라즈마 젯의 플라즈마 발광강도를 높이는 좋은 방법임을 보였다. 이러한 플라즈마 젯 간의 결합은 대기압 저온 플라즈마의 에너지를 높일 수 있는 쉽고 간단한 방법이며, 이 방법을 이용하여 대기압 저온 플라즈마를 표면처리, 표면개질은 물론, 식각 및 증착, 나아가서는 의료/바이오 분석 기술 등 다양한 학문적, 산업적 응용에도 적용할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.
