The effects of ferric chloride mordant solution, two cleansing solutions, and three chemical adhesion promoters were examined on resin-dentin adhesion. Adhesion was increased with the use of ferric chloride solution. An NPG-GMA or butyl acrylate-acrylic acid copolymer type of adhesion promoter also increased resistance to shear separation.

The outstanding adhesive performance of mussel byssal threads has inspired materials scientists over the past few decades. Exploiting the amino-catechol synergy, polymeric pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSAs) have now been synthesized by copolymerizing traditional PSA monomers, butyl acrylate and acrylic acid, with mussel-inspired lysine- and aromatic-rich monomers. The consequences of decoupling amino and catechol moieties from each other were compared (that is, incorporated as separate monomers) against a monomer architecture in which the catechol and amine were coupled together in a fixed orientation in the monomer side chain. Adhesion assays were used to probe performance at the molecular, microscopic, and macroscopic levels by a combination of AFM-assisted force spectroscopy, peel and static shear adhesion. Coupling of catechols and amines in the same monomer side chain produced optimal cooperative effects in improving the macroscopic adhesion performance.
