RESUMEN
This article is aimed at discussing the combined effect of mineral admixture and servicing temperature, especially in cold environment, on the properties of magnesium phosphate repair mortar (MPM). The influence mechanism of fly ash content on the microstructure and performance of MPM were firstly investigated, and then the evolution rules in properties of fly ash modified MPM cured at - 20 °C, 0 °C, 20 °C and 40 °C were further revealed. The results show that the incorporation of fly ash has no significant effect on the setting time and fluidity of MPM. When MPM is modified with 10 wt% and 15 wt% fly ash, its mechanical properties, adhesive strength, water resistance, and volume stability are effectively improved. Fly ash reduces the crystallinity and continuity of struvite enriched in hardened MPM, and its particles are embedded among struvite and unreacted MgO. The compressive strength of MPM-10 cured for various ages increases with the elevating of curing temperature, while the flexural strength, interfacial bonding strength, strength retention and linear shrinkage exhibits the opposite laws. When cured at 0 °C and - 20 °C, MPM-10 still has good early strength, water resistance and interfacial bonding properties, which indicates that MPM-10 provides with an ability of emergency repair of cracked components served in cold environments.
RESUMEN
The development of high-filled 3D printing resin necessitates a bonding protocol for dental indirect restorations to achieve optimal bond strength after cementation. This study evaluates shear bond strengths of high-filler 3D printed materials for permanent restorations with various surface treatments. Rodin Sculpture 1.0 (50% lithium disilicate fillers) and 2.0 Ceramic Nanohybrid (>60% zirconia and lithium disilicate fillers) were tested, with Aelite All-Purpose Body composite resin as control. Samples were prepared, post-cured, and sandblasted with alumina (25 µm). Surface roughness was analyzed using an optical profilometer. Two bonding protocols were compared. First, groups were treated with lithium disilicate silane (Porcelain Primer) or zirconia primer (Z-Prime Plus) or left untreated without a bonding agent. Beam-shaped resin cement (DuoLink Universal) specimens were bonded and stored in a 37 °C water bath. Second, additional sets of materials were coated with a bonding agent (All-Bond Universal), either followed by silane application or left untreated. These sets were then similarly stored alongside resin cement specimens. Shear bond tests were performed after 24 h. SEM images were taken after debonding. One-Way ANOVA and post hoc Duncan were performed for the statistical analysis. Rodin 1.0 exhibited increased adhesive failure with silane or zirconia primer coating, but significantly improved bond strengths with bonding agent application. Rodin 2.0 showed consistent bond strengths regardless of bonding agent application, but cohesive failure rates increased with bonding agent and filler coating. In all groups, except for Rodin 1.0 without bonding agent, silane coating increased cohesive failure rate. In conclusion, optimal shear bond strength for high-filler 3D printing materials can be achieved with silane coating and bonding agent application.
RESUMEN
This review systematically examines the multitude of factors influencing bonding strength in bamboo-based composite materials, given the rising prominence of bamboo as a green building material. With bamboo's inherent variability in mechanical properties and structure, engineered bamboo products have emerged to address challenges related to connections and joints. Such advancements have necessitated a detailed exploration of adhesive systems, a significant cost determinant in bamboo production. The adhesive bonding mechanism in bamboo, akin to wood, involves intricate processes including adhesive spreading, penetration, and solidification, influenced by the unique chemical composition of bamboo. The interfacial bond quality plays a pivotal role in determining the durability and performance of the final products, with numerous factors such as bamboo species, layered structure, adhesive type, and treatment types impacting the mechanical properties. Particular attention is given to the disparities in physical and mechanical properties between the bamboo culm's core and shell layers, attributing complexities to the gluing process. Examining shear failure strength reveals its criticality in mechanical investigations, with variations in bonding strength affecting the outcome. The review underscores the need for consistent quality control and adept manipulation of these influential factors for the successful manufacture of bamboo-based products. A comprehensive discussion ensues on the variables controlling the bonding properties of the developed bamboo products, aiming to evaluate and highlight the optimal parameters and procedures essential for enhancing the quality and reliability of bamboo-based composite materials for sustainable construction applications.
RESUMEN
Given the severe protein denaturation and self-aggregation during the high-temperature desolubilization, denatured soy meal (DSM) is limited by its low reactivity, high viscosity, and poor water solubility. Preparing low-cost and high-performance adhesives with DSM as the key feedstock is still challenging. Herein, this study reveals a double-enzyme co-activation method targeting DSM with the glycosidic bonds in protein-carbohydrate complexes and partial amide bonds in protein, increasing the protein dispersion index from 10.2 % to 75.1 % improves the reactivity of DSM. The green crosslinker transglutaminase (TGase) constructs a robust adhesive isopeptide bond network with high water-resistant bonding strength comparable to chemical crosslinkers. The adhesive has demonstrated high dry/wet shear strength (2.56 and 0.93 MPa) for plywood. After molecular recombination by enzyme strategy, the adhesive had the proper viscosity, high reactivity, and strong water resistance. This research showcases a novel perspective on developing a DSM-based adhesive and blazes new avenues for changes in protein structural function and adhesive performance.

Addressing the issue of low bonding strength in Ti/Mg laminated composites due to interfacial oxidation, this study employs a differential temperature rolling method using longitudinal induction heating to fabricate Ti/Mg composite plates. The entire process is conducted under an argon gas protective atmosphere, which prevents interfacial oxidation while achieving uniform deformation. The effects of reduction on the mechanical properties and microstructure of the composite plates are thoroughly investigated. Results indicate that as the reduction increases, the bonding strength gradually increases, mainly attributed to the increased mechanical interlocking area and a broader element diffusion layer. This corresponds to a transition from a brittle to a ductile fracture at the microscopic tensile-shear fracture surface. When the reduction reaches 47.5%, the Ti/Mg interfacial strength reaches 63 MPa, which is approximately a 20% improvement compared to the bonded strength with previous oxidation at the interface. Notably, at a low reduction of 17.5%, the bonding strength is significantly enhanced by about one time. Additionally, it was found that a strong bonded interface at a high reduction is beneficial in hindering the propagation of interfacial cracks during tensile testing, enhancing the ability of the Ti/Mg composite plates to resist interfacial delamination.
RESUMEN
Bonding area (BA) and bonding strength (BS) interplay dictates tensile strength of a tablet and, hence, tabletability. Using a series of alkali halides with mechanical properties spanning more than one order of magnitude, the role of compaction pressure and mechanical properties on tabletability is systematically investigated and explained using the BA-BS interplay. Results reveal that BA dominates the BA-BS interplay at low pressures, where more plastic powders attain higher tensile strength due to larger BA. In contrast, BS dominates the interplay at high pressures, when difference in BA between powders is minimized. Under the typical compaction pressures of 100-300 MPa, tablet tensile strength is the highest for materials with intermediate hardness, or plasticity, due to an optimal BA-BS interplay.

Surface preparation is an important step in adhesive technology. A variety of abrasive, chemical, or concentrated energy source treatments are used. The effects of these treatments vary due to the variety of factors affecting the final strength of bonded joints. This paper presents the results of an experimental study conducted to determine the feasibility of using fiber laser surface treatments in place of technologically and environmentally cumbersome methods. The effect of surface modification was studied on three materials: aluminum EN AW-1050A and aluminum alloys EN AW-2024 and EN AW-5083. For comparison purposes, joints were made with sandblasted and laser-textured surfaces and those rolled as reference samples for the selected overlap variant, glued with epoxy adhesive. The joints were made with an overlap of 8, 10, 12.5, 14, and 16 mm, and these tests made it possible to demonstrate laser processing as a useful technique to reduce the size of the overlap and achieve even higher load-bearing capacity of the joint compared to sandblasting. A comparative analysis was also carried out for the failure force of the adhesive bond and the failure energy. The results show the efficiency and desirability of using lasers in bonding, allowing us to reduce harmful technologies and reduce the weight of the bonded structure.
RESUMEN
It would be very beneficial to have a method for joining of ceramics to titanium reliably. Although several techniques have been developed and tested to prevent extensive interfacial chemical reactions in titanium-ceramic systems, the main problem of the inherent brittleness of interfaces was still unsolved. To overcome this problem also in dental applications, we decided to make use of an interlayer material that needs to meet the following requirements: First, it has to be biocompatible, second, it should not melt below the bonding temperatures, and third, it should not react too strongly with titanium, so that its plasticity will be maintained. Considering possible material options only the metals: gold, platinum, palladium, and silver, fulfill the first and second requirements. To find out-without an extensive experimental testing program-which of the four metals fulfills the third requirement best, the combined thermodynamic and reaction kinetic modeling was employed to evaluate how many and how thick reaction layers are formed between the interlayer metals and titanium. With the help of theoretical modeling, it was shown that silver fulfills the last requirement best. However, before starting to test experimentally the effect of the silver layer on the mechanical integrity of dental ceramic/Ag/Ti joints it was decided to make use of mechanical analysis of the three-point bending test, the result of which indicated that the silver layer increases significantly the bond strength of the joints. This result encouraged us to develop a new technique for plating silver on titanium. Subsequently, we executed numerous three-point bending tests, which demonstrated that silver-plated titanium-ceramic joints are much stronger than conventional titanium-ceramic joints. Hence, it can be concluded that the combined thermodynamic, reaction kinetic, and mechanical modeling method can also be a very valuable tool in medical research and development work.

The durability of wooden heritage objects and sites can be affected by external environmental factors, leading to decay, cracking, and other forms of deterioration, which might ultimately result in significant and irreversible loss. In this study, a FEVE resin was modified with Ag2O/OH-MWCNTS (MA), denoted as MAF, where three concentrations were prepared using in situ precipitation, and the resulting composite adhesive was characterized by a high viscosity and effective bacteriostatic properties, demonstrating a better viscosity and thermal stability, as well as antibacterial properties, than pure FEVE resin. The results show that MAF adhesives present good thermal stability, as evidenced by a lower mass loss rate following treatment at 800 °C compared to the pure FEVE resin. At a consistent shear rate, the viscosity of MAF demonstrates a notable increase with the proportion of MA, which is better than that of FEVE. This suggests that the nano-Ag2O particles in MA act as physical crosslinking agents in FEVE, improving the viscosity of the composite adhesive MAF. The adhesion strength between MAF and wood exhibits a similar trend, with wooden samples showing higher shear strengths as the proportion of MA increases in comparison to FEVE. Simultaneously, the antibacterial effects of the MAF adhesive exceeded 1 mm for Trichoderma, Aspergillus niger, and white rot fungi. The antibacterial activity of the MAF adhesive exhibited a direct correlation with the concentration of Ag2O/OH-MWCNTS, with the most pronounced inhibitory effect observed on Trichoderma. The MAF adhesive demonstrates promising prospects as an adhesive for wooden heritage artifacts, offering a novel approach for the rapid, environmentally friendly, and efficient development of composite adhesives with superior adhesive properties.
RESUMEN
This study investigates the secondary bonding of aircraft skin/stiffener assemblies using press conduction welding with carbon fiber/polyetherketoneketone thermoplastic composites and polyetherimide adhesive. Recognizing the challenges posed by conventional welding methods in maintaining material integrity and uniformity, this research explores an alternative methodology that mitigates these issues while ensuring high-strength bonds. The press conduction welding parameters were selected based on single-lap shear tests and applied in the bonding of skin and omega stiffener components. The temperature range was determined using differential scanning calorimetry. The pressure was held at 1 MPa for 180 s. The welding temperature that produced a high-bonding strength was identified experimentally; these key variables were then used in the welding process of the skin and omega stiffener. By analyzing how the fibers tear and the effectiveness of interdiffusion between the plies, we were able to gain insights into the bonding strength and fractured surface. The findings suggest that press conduction welding provides a viable route for secondary bonding in thermoplastic composite structures, highlighting its advantages in terms of processing efficiency and integrity. This study contributes to the understanding of the mechanical behaviors of bonded joints and underscores the significance of temperature control in the welding process.
RESUMEN
The development of a biomass adhesive as a substitute for petroleum-derived adhesives has been considered a viable option. However, achieving both superior bonding strength and toughness in biomass adhesives remains a significant challenge. Inspired by the human skeletal muscles structure, this study reveals a promising supramolecular structure using tannin acid (TA) functionalized poly-ß-cyclodextrin (PCD) (TA@PCD) as elastic tissues and chitin nanocrystals (ChNCs) as green reinforcements to strengthen the soybean meal (SM) adhesive crosslinking network. TA@PCD acts as a dynamic crosslinker that facilitates reversible host-guest interactions, hydrogen bonds, and electrostatic interactions between adjacent stiff ChNCs and SM matrix, resulting in satisfactory strength and toughness. The resulting SM/TA@PCD/ChNCs-2 adhesive has demonstrated satisfactory wet and dry shear strength (1.25 MPa and 2.57 MPa, respectively), toughness (0.69 J), and long-term solvents resistance (80 d). Furthermore, the adhesive can exhibit desirable antimildew characteristics owing to the phenol hydroxyl groups of TA and amino groups of ChNCs. This work showcases an effective supramolecular chemistry strategy for fabricating high-performance biomass adhesives with great potential for practical applications.

To enhance the quality stability of 3D printing concrete, this study introduces a novel machine learning (ML) model based on a stacking strategy for the first time. The model aims to predict the interlayer bonding strength (IBS) of 3D printing concrete. The base models incorporate SVR, KNN, and GPR, and subsequently, these models are stacked to create a robust stacking model. Results from 10-fold cross-validation and statistical performance evaluations reveal that, compared to the base models, the stacking model exhibits superior performance in predicting the IBS of 3D printing concrete, with the R2 value increasing from 0.91 to 0.96. This underscores the efficacy of the developed stacking model in significantly improving prediction accuracy, thereby facilitating the advancement of scaled-up production in 3D printing concrete.
RESUMEN
The wood industry faces challenges in producing eco-friendly, high-performance, and formaldehyde-free adhesives. In this study, carboxylated styrene-butadiene rubber (XSBR) was blended with polyamidoamine-epichlorohydrin (PAE) resin, and a controlled amount of CaCO3 powder was incorporated to create an adhesive with exceptional strength. The resulting three-layer plywood demonstrated remarkable dry and wet shear strengths of 3.09 and 2.36 MPa, respectively, and of 2.27 MPa after boiling water tests, comparable to that of phenolic resins. Additionally, the adhesive exhibited strong adhesion across various materials including glass, metal, etc. This exceptional performance was due to two primary factors: (1) the high-density chemical cross-linking reaction and the physical entanglement between XSBR and PAE; (2) the organic-inorganic hybrid involving metal ion complexation developed by CaCO3, which fostered molecular chain connections and enhanced the adhesive-material interface. These findings offer valuable references for further research in the field of wood adhesives.
RESUMEN
Tabletability is an outcome of interparticulate bonding area (BA) - bonding strength (BS) interplay, influenced by the mechanical properties, size and shape, surface energetics of the constituent particles, and compaction parameters. Typically, a more plastic active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) exhibits a better tabletability than less plastic APIs due to the formation of a larger BA during tablet compression. Thus, solid forms of an API with greater plasticity are traditionally preferred if other critical pharmaceutical properties are comparable. However, the tabletability flip phenomenon (TFP) suggests that a solid form of an API with poorer tabletability may exhibit better tabletability when formulated with plastic excipients. In this study, we propose another possible mechanism of TFP, wherein softer excipient particles conform to the shape of harder API particles during compaction, leading to a larger BA under certain pressures and, hence, better tabletability. In this scenario, the BA-BS interplay is dominated by BA. Accordingly, TFP should tend to occur when API solid forms are formulated with a soft excipient. We tested this hypothesis by visualizing the deformation of particles in a model compressed tablet by nondestructive micro-computed tomography and by optical microscopy when the particles were separated from the tablet. The results confirmed that soft particles wrapped around hard particles at their interfaces, while an approximately flat contact was formed between two adjacent soft particles. In addition to the direct visual evidence, the BA-dominating mechanism was also supported by the observation that TFP occurred in the p-aminobenzoic acid polymorph system only when mixed with a soft excipient.

Formaldehyde adhesive is the primary source of indoor formaldehyde pollution, posing a serious threat to human health. Soybean meal (SM), as an abundant biomacromolecule and co-product of soybean oil industry, emerges as a promising alternative to formaldehyde adhesive. However, the SM adhesive exhibits inferior water resistance and unsatisfactory bonding strength. In this study, a novel core-sheath structure with an inexpensive pulp cellulose core and a hyperbranched polymer sheath is synthesized and introduced into SM to develop a robust bio-based adhesive. Specifically, aldehyde-functionalized pulp cellulose is grafted with hyperbranched polyamide, which is terminated via epoxy groups, to synthesize a core-sheath hybrid (APC@HBPA-EP). The core-sheath APC@HBPA-EP serves as both a crosslinker and an enhancer. The results show that the wet shear strength of the modified SM adhesive exhibits a remarkable 520 % increase to 0.93 MPa, and its dry shear strength reaches 2.10 MPa, meeting the established indoor use standards. The Young's modulus of the modified SM adhesive shows a significant 282 % increase to 19.27 GPa. Additionally, the modified SM adhesive exhibited superior impact toughness (7.48 KJ/m2), which increased by 24 times compared with pure SM adhesive. This study provides a versatile strategy for developing robust protein adhesives, hydrogel patch, and composite coatings.

The use of hybrid abutment crowns bonded extraorally to a titanium bonding base has aesthetic and biological benefits for the prosthetic rehabilitation of oral implants. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of luting agents between a zirconium dioxide crown and the titanium bonding base on crown/abutment retention and the subsequent durability of the prosthetic superstructure. Fifty-six implant abutment samples, all restored with a lower first premolar zirconium dioxide crown, were used and divided into seven groups (n = 8/group) according to the type of luting agent used: group 1, SpeedCEM Plus; group 2, Panavia SA Cement Universal; group 3, Panavia V5; group 4, RelyX Unicem 2 Automix; group 5, VITA ADIVA IA-Cem; group 6, Ketac CEM; and group 7, Hoffmann's Phosphate Cement. All specimens were subjected to thermomechanical loading (load of 49 N, 5 million chewing cycles and 54.825 thermocycles in water with temperatures of 5 °C and 55 °C). The surviving samples were exposed to a pull-off force until crown debonding from the bonding base. Overall, 55 samples survived the thermomechanical load. Group 2 showed the highest mean pull-off force value (762 N), whereas group 6 showed the lowest mean value (55 N). The differences between the seven groups were statistically significant (ANOVA, p < 0.001). The debonding failure pattern was mainly adhesive and was noticed predominantly at the zirconium dioxide-luting agent interface. Within the scope of the present investigation, it was shown that most of the luting agents are suitable for "cementation" of a zirconium dioxide crown onto a titanium base since the debonding forces are above a recommended value (159 N).
RESUMEN
This study aims to address the issues posed by frost damage to concrete structures in cold regions, focusing on reinforcement and repair methods to increase the service life of existing structures instead of costly reconstruction solutions. Due to the limitations of conventional concrete in terms of durability and strength, this research focused on ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) by replacing part of the cement with recycled brick powder (RBP) to strengthen ordinary C50 concrete, obtaining UHPC-NC specimens. Mechanical tests investigated the bonding performance of UHPC-NC specimens under various conditions, including interface agents, surface roughness treatments, and freeze-thaw after 0, 50, 100, and 150 cycles with a 30% replacement rate of RBP. Additionally, a multi-factor calculation formula for interface bonding strength was established according to the test data, and the bonding mechanism and model were analyzed through an SEM test. The results indicate that the interface bonding of UHPC-NC specimens decreased during salt freezing compared to hydro-freezing, causing more severe damage. However, the relative index of splitting tensile strength for cement paste specimens showed increases of 14.01% and 14.97%, respectively, compared to specimens without an interface agent. Using an interface agent improved bonding strength and cohesiveness. The UHPC-NC bonding model without an interfacial agent can be characterized using a three-zone model. After applying an interfacial agent, the model can be characterized by a three-zone, three-layer bonding model. Overall, the RBP-UHPC-reinforced C50 for damaged concrete showed excellent interfacial bonding and frost resistance performance.
RESUMEN
A method is presented herein for the design of wood bio-adhesives using sewage sludge extracts (SSE). SSE was extracted from SS using deep eutectic solvents and processed with glycerol triglycidyl ether (GTE) to disrupt the secondary structure of proteins. An additive was also used to improve mechanical performance. The resulting bio-adhesive (SSE/GTE@TA) had a wet shear strength of 0.93 MPa, meeting the Chinese national standard GB/T 9846-2015 (≥0.7 MPa). However, the high polysaccharide content in SSE would weaken the mechanical properties of wood bio-adhesives. The key to improve bio-adhesive quality was the formation of a strong chemical bond via Maillard reaction as well as higher temperatures (140 °C) to reduce polysaccharide content via dehydration. This approach has lower environmental impact and higher economic efficiency compared to incineration and anaerobic digestion of sewage sludge. This work provides a new perspective on the high-value utilization of SS and offers a novel approach to developing bio-adhesives for the wood industry.

Low-temperature lead-free silver pastes deserve thorough investigation for sustainable development and application of MgTiO3 ceramics in electronic devices. In this study, a series of Bi2O3-B2O3-ZnO-SiO2-Al2O3-CaO glasses with suitable softening temperatures were prepared via melt quenching using a type of micrometer silver powder formed by silver nanoparticle aggregates. The composite pastes containing silver powder, Bi2O3 glass powder and an organic vehicle were then screen-printed. The effects of glass powder concentration and sintering temperature on the microstructure of the surface interface were also investigated. The results showed that the silver paste for microwave dielectric ceramic filters (MgTiO3) possessed good electrical conductivity (2.28 mΩ/â¡) and high adhesion (43.46 N/mm2) after medium temperature (670 °C) sintering. Thus, this glass powder has great application potential in non-toxic lead-free silver pastes for metallization of MgTiO3 substrates.
RESUMEN
The FeCrMoSi amorphous coatings were fabricated on the surface of a 304 stainless steel (SS) base material using atmospheric plasma spraying. A comprehensive investigation was carried out to evaluate the structure, morphology, adhesion to base material, hardness, hydrophobicity, interfacial contact resistance, and corrosion resistance of the coatings. The results show a remarkable hardness of 1180.1 HV, a strong bond strength of up to 64.3 N/mm2, and excellent hydrophobicity with a water contact angle reaching 141.2°. Additionally, in an acidic environment with fluoride ions (0.5 M H2SO4 + 2 ppm HF, 80 °C), the FeCrMoSi amorphous coating demonstrated superior corrosion resistance compared with 304 SS while maintaining similar electroconductibility. Detailed analysis of the structural characteristics and corrosion resistance of FeCrMoSi amorphous coatings provided valuable insights into their mechanics. These promising results signify a bright future for FeCrMoSi amorphous coatings in various industrial sectors, including transportation, petroleum, and electric power industries.
