Olefin Metathesis Polymerization: Acyclic Diene Metathesis (ADMET)00:53

Olefin Metathesis Polymerization: Acyclic Diene Metathesis (ADMET)

2.3K
Acyclic diene metathesis polymerization or ADMET polymerization involves cross-metathesis of terminal dienes, such as 1,8-nonadiene, to give linear unsaturated polymer and ethylene. As ADMET is a reversible process, the formed ethylene gas must be removed from the reaction mixture to complete the polymerization process.
Similar to cross-metathesis, ADMET also involves the formation of metallacyclobutane intermediate by [2+2] cycloaddition of one of the double bonds of a terminal diene with...

Anionic Chain-Growth Polymerization: Overview

2.7K
The polymerization process that involves carbanion as an intermediate is called anionic polymerization. It is also a type of addition or chain-growth polymerization. Anionic polymerization gets initiated by a strong nucleophile such as an organolithium or a Grignard reagent. The most commonly used initiator for anionic polymerization is butyl lithium. Monomers involved in anionic polymerization must possess a vinyl group bonded to one or two electron-withdrawing groups. For instance,...

Area of Science:

  • Dental Materials Science
  • Biomaterials Engineering
  • Antimicrobial Research

Background:

  • Dental caries and periodontal diseases are often linked to bacterial biofilms.
  • Developing effective antimicrobial strategies within dental adhesive systems is crucial for long-term restoration success.
  • Incorporating antimicrobial agents into adhesive resins offers a promising approach to prevent biofilm formation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the anti-biofilm potential of silver methacrylate (Ag) and di-n-butyldimethacrylatetin (Sn) incorporated into experimental adhesive systems.
  • To assess the impact of these metal methacrylates on the physical, mechanical, and biological properties of the adhesive resin.
  • To determine the optimal concentration for achieving anti-biofilm effects without compromising material integrity.

Main Methods:

  • Ag and Sn methacrylates were added to an adhesive resin at 0.5%, 1%, and 2% concentrations.
  • Evaluated properties included anti-biofilm potential, degree of conversion (DC), microtensile bond strength (μTBS), water sorption/solubility (WSR/SL), and cytotoxicity.
  • Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) was used to analyze bonded interfaces, and ion leaching was quantified.

Main Results:

  • Ag and Sn methacrylates at 1% and 2% concentrations demonstrated anti-biofilm activity against Mutans streptococci.
  • Ag at 2% concentration negatively affected DC and μTBS.
  • Water sorption/solubility was significantly affected by Ag (1%, 2%) and Sn (2%), while cytotoxicity remained comparable to controls across all tested concentrations.
  • Silver ion leaching was significantly higher than tin ion leaching.

Conclusions:

  • Silver and tin methacrylates, particularly at 1% concentration, exhibit promising anti-biofilm effects in dental adhesive systems.
  • The 1% concentration of Ag and Sn methacrylates provides an anti-biofilm effect without compromising key mechanical properties or cell viability.
  • Further research is warranted to optimize metal methacrylate concentrations and investigate long-term clinical performance and safety profiles.
