Abstract
Aqueous mixtures of HEMA with glutaraldehyde or propionaldehyde polymerize by addition of catalytic amounts of amines or amino acids. The maximal reaction velocity of the transformation of HEMA/glutaraldehyde with glycine was obtained at pH 0.8. Kinetic data suggested a second-order reaction between glutaraldehyde and glycine, and solubility data suggested formation of a cross-linked polymer. A relatively high bond strength between dentin and resin composite was obtained by pre-treatment of dentin with Gluma (35% HEMA, 5% glutaraldehyde in water) adjusted to pH 1.0 with hydrochloric acid. It is proposed that on application of Gluma, amino-group-containing substances in dentin react with glutaraldehyde and start the formation of a HEMA polymer. This product may be cross-linked by an α,β-unsaturated glutaraldehyde aldol condensation product and may bond to dentin by aldehyde fixation to dentin proteins. Resin composite will bond to this product by copolymerization.
