Statement of problem. Interfacial toughness is important in the mechanical property of layered dental ceramics such as core-veneered all-ceramic dental materials. The interfaces between adjacent layers must be strongly bonded to prevent delamination, however the weak interface makes delamination by the growth of lateral cracks along the interface. Purpose. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of the reaction layer on the interfacial fracture toughness of the core/veneer structure according to the five different divesting. Materials and methods. Thirty five heat-pressed Lithia-based ceramic core bars (IPS Empress 2), $20mm{\times}3mm{\times}2mm$ were made following the five different surface divesting conditions. G1 was no dissolution or sandblasting of the interaction layer. G2 and G3 were dissolved layer with 0.2% HF in an ultrasonic unit for 15min and 30 min. G4 and G5 were dissolved layer for 15min and 30min and then same sandblasting for 60s each. We veneered bilayered ceramic bars, $20mm{\times}2.8mm{\times}3.8mm$(2mm core and 1.8mm veneer), according to the manufacturer's instruction. After polishing the specimens through $1{\mu}m$ alumina, we induced five cracks for each of five groups within the veneer close to interface under an applied indenter load of 19.6N with a Vickers microhardness indenter. Results. The results from Vickers hardness were the percentage of delamination G1:55%, G2:50%, G3:35%, G4:0% and G5:0%. SEM examination showed that the mean thickness of the reaction layer were G1 $93.5{\pm}20.6{\mu}m$, G2 $69.9{\pm}14.3{\mu}m$, G3 $59.2{\pm}20.2{\mu}m$, G4 $0.61{\pm}1.44{\mu}m$ G5 $0{\pm}0{\mu}m$. The mean interfacial delamination crack lengths were G1 $131{\pm}54.5{\mu}m$, G2 $85.2{\pm}51.3{\mu}m$, and G3 $94.9{\pm}81.8{\mu}m$. One-way ANOVA showed that there was no statistically significant difference in interfacial crack length among G1, G2 and G3(p> 0.05). Conclusion. The investment reaction layer played important role at the interfacial toughness of body ceramic bonded to Lithia-based ceramic.

본 연구는 Type II 가스실린터의 20,000 회 피로시험과 파열시험시 음향방출시험을 병행하여 용기의 손상정도를 평가하고자 하였으며, 실험에 사용된 용기는 결함 크기가 $3mm{\times}3mm{\times}50mm$ (폭${\times}$깊이${\times}$길이)이고 결함 방향이 용기의 종방향 및 횡방향인 인공결함용기와 건전한 용기 등 세 종류이다. 피로시험시 발생된 음향방출신호는 종방향결함의 경우 전체 신호 중 결함에서 발생된 이벤트의 비율이 50 % 이상이며, 음향방출신호의 위치표정도 매우 정확하게 일치하였다. 또한 파열시험에서는 인공결함용기가 결함 위치에서 에상파열압력보다 낮은 압력으로 파열될거라는 예상과는 달리 인공결함용기의 파열압력은 건전한 용기와 큰 차이가 없었으며, 단지 종방향 인공결함용기의 경우 파열위치가 결함 위치와 근접하게 발생하였다. 이는 종방향 결함의 길이만큼 복합재료의 두께가 얇아지는 효과로 나타나게 되어 금속라이너의 피로반복시 결함 발생과 성장위치에 영향을 미친 것으로 판단된다.
