Abstract

A hydrophobic acidic group-containing polymeric monomer (a); a water-soluble polymeric monomer (b); water (c); a photopolymerization initiator (d); an aromatic tertiary amine (e) having an electron-withdrawing group; a cross-linkable polymeric monomer (f); and a basic compound (g) for producing a water-soluble salt through a reaction with a part of the hydrophobic acidic group-containing polymeric monomer (a) are included as essential compounding ingredients. A one-part dental adhesive composition that exhibits high adhesive strength and high storage stability in adhesion between a teeth, and more particularly enamel or dentine, and a dental repairing material, and more particularly a resin material, is provided. Since the adhesive composition is one-part type, there is no need to mix in an adhering operation, and in addition, it exhibits high adhesive strength without performing preprocessing (etching processing and priming processing), it is suitably used as a one-step type dental adhesive composition for performing an adhering operation in a teeth repairing treatment in one processing.

Claims (22)

1. A one-part dental adhesive composition comprising:

1 through 50 wt % of a hydrophobic acidic group-containing polymeric monomer (a);

22.5 through 60 wt % of a water-soluble polymeric monomer (b);

1 through 50 wt % of water (c);

0.01 through 10 wt % of a photopolymerization initiator (d);

0.01 through 10 wt % of an aromatic tertiary amine (e) having an electron-withdrawing group;

5 through 60 wt % of a cross-linkable polymeric monomer (f); and

a basic compound (g) for producing a water-soluble salt through a reaction with a part of said hydrophobic acidic group-containing polymeric monomer (a) in an amount for adjusting pH of a resultant liquid to 1.5 through 4.0.

2. The one-part dental adhesive composition according to claim 1 ,

comprising said cross-linkable polymeric monomer (f) in a ratio of 25 through 60000 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of said basic compound (g).

3. The one-part dental adhesive composition according to claim 1 ,

wherein said hydrophobic acidic group-containing polymeric monomer (a) is a (meth)acrylate-based polymeric monomer having, in one molecule, at least one univalent or bivalent phosphoric or pyrophosphoric group, and

said basic compound (g) is an aromatic secondary amine or an aromatic tertiary amine for producing the water-soluble salt through the reaction with a part of said hydrophobic acidic group-containing polymeric monomer (a).

4. The one-part dental adhesive composition according to claim 1 ,

wherein said hydrophobic acidic group-containing polymeric monomer (a) is a (meth)acrylate-based polymeric monomer having, in one molecule, at least one univalent or bivalent phosphoric or pyrophosphoric group, and

said basic compound (g) is an aliphatic secondary amine or an aliphatic tertiary amine for producing the water-soluble salt through the reaction with a part of said hydrophobic acidic group-containing polymeric monomer (a).

5. The one-part dental adhesive composition according to claim 1 ,

wherein said hydrophobic acidic group-containing polymeric monomer (a) is a (meth)acrylate-based polymeric monomer having, in one molecule, at least one univalent or bivalent phosphoric or pyrophosphoric group, and

said basic compound (g) is an aliphatic secondary amine having a hydroxyl group or an aliphatic tertiary amine having a hydroxyl group for producing the water-soluble salt through the reaction with a part of said hydrophobic acidic group-containing polymeric monomer (a).

6. The one-part dental adhesive composition according to claim 1 , further comprising a water-soluble volatile organic solvent (h).

7. The one-part dental adhesive composition according to claim 1 , further comprising a filler (i).

8. The one-part dental adhesive composition of claim 1 , comprising 30 through 60 wt % of said water-soluble polymeric monomer (b).
