Abstract
summary Adhesive bonding of titanium was investigated with the use of five primers and two luting agents. All of the primers contained acidic methacrylate monomers for promotion of metal bonding. Titanium metal specimens were bonded with seven combinations of five primers and two luting agents. Durability of the bond was evaluated by means of thermocycling. Although all five primers enhanced the bond strength to titanium, three of the primers (Super‐Bond Liquid, Metal Primer and Tokuso Rebase MR. Bond) demonstrated more durable bonds than the other two primers (Acryl Bond and All‐Bond 2 Primer B). The tri‐n‐butylborane (TBB)‐initiated luting agent exhibited better bonding ability as compared to conventional composite resin. The strongest and the most consistent bond was achieved by the combination of 4‐methacryloyloxyethyl trimellitate anhydride (4‐META) primer and TBB resin.
