Abstract

Abstract A stain resistant no-mix orthodontic adhesive is disclosed. The adhesive comprises: (a) a first component having a relatively low viscosity and which contains an acrylic or methacrylic diester of ethoxylated bisphenol-A, an acrylic or methacrylic diester of an alkanediol, and benzyl acrylate or methacrylate; and (b) a second component containing a filler and an acrylic or methacrylic diester of ethoxylated bisphenol-A, an acrylic or methacrylic diester of an alkanediol, and benzyl methacrylate or acrylate, said filler being present in an amount within the range of from about 50 to about 80 weight percent of said second component, wherein, one of said first and second components contains a perioxide catalyst and the other of said components contains a tertiary amine activator for said peroxide catalyst.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 148 words
An orthodontic adhesive composition that becomes reactive and sets to a stain resistant material when a layer of one component is placed in contact with a layer of the other component, which consists essentially of: (a) a first component having a relatively low viscosity and which contains an acrylic or methacrylic diester of ethoxylated bisphenol-A, an acrylic or methacrylic diester of an alkanediol, and benzyl acrylate or methacrylate; and (b) a second component containing a filler and an acrylic or methacrylic diester of ethoxylated bisphenol-A, an acrylic or methacrylic diester of an alkanediol, and benzyl methacrylate or acrylate, said filler being present in an amount within the range of from about 50 to about 80 weight percent of said second component, wherein, one of said first and second components contains a peroxide catalyst and the other of said components contains a tertiary amine activator for said peroxide catalyst.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 148 words
An orthodontic adhesive composition that becomes reactive and sets to a stain resistant material when a layer of one component is placed in contact with a layer of the other component, which consists essentially of: (a) a first component having a relatively low viscosity and which contains an acrylic or methacrylic diester of ethoxylated bisphenol-A, an acrylic or methacrylic diester of an alkanediol, and benzyl acrylate or methacrylate; and (b) a second component containing a filler and an acrylic or methacrylic diester of ethoxylated bisphenol-A, an acrylic or methacrylic diester of an alkanediol, and benzyl methacrylate or acrylate, said filler being present in an amount within the range of from about 50 to about 80 weight percent of said second component, wherein, one of said first and second components contains a peroxide catalyst and the other of said components contains a tertiary amine activator for said peroxide catalyst.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 19 words
The adhesive formulation of claim 1 wherein both said components contained ethoxylated bisphenol-A dimethacrylate, 1,6-hexanediol dimethacrylate, and benzyl methacrylate.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 17 words
The adhesive formulation of claim 1 wherein the tertiary amine activator is contained in said first component.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 17 words
The adhesive formulation of claim 2 wherein the tertiary amine activator is contained in said first component.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 52 words
The adhesive formulation of any of claims 1-4 wherein the filler includes colloidal silica and finely divided quartz or finely divided barium or strontium glass that has been acid washed and heat treated at an elevated temperature sufficient to cause a significant reduction in the specific surface area of the glass powder.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 15 words
The adhesive formulation of any of claims 1-4 wherein the tertiary amine activator is N,N-bis(β-hydroxyethyl)-2-methyl-p-toluidine.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 13 words
The adhesive formulation of claim 5 wherein the tertiary amine activator is N,N-bis(β-hydroxyethyl)-2-methyl-p-toluidine.
