ABSTRACT Aim To evaluate and compare shear bond strength (SBS) and debonding characters of the Transbond XT (BisGMA-based composite), Esthet-X flow (flowable composite), Filtek Z-350 (flowable composite). Materials and methods A total of 90 human premolars were divided into group I, Transbond XT (n = 30); group II, Esthet-X flow (n = 30) and group III, Filtek Z-350 (n = 30), the preadjusted edgewise stainless steel premolar brackets were bonded to evaluate the shear bond and debonding properties. Results The results of the statistical analysis comparing the three groups indicated no statistically significant differences between the groups. In general, the SBS with groups I and III exhibited similar bond strength with 11.58 ± 1.3 MPa and 11.07 ± 1.0 MPa respectively. Groups III exhibited least bond strength of 10.7 ± 2 MPa. In modified adhesive remnant index (ARI) the majority of bond failures occurred at enamel-adhesive interface or cohesive type failure in all the three groups. Groups II and III showed increased frequency of score 2, 4 and 5 compared to group I which showed increased frequency of score 0 and 1. Conclusion When considering the SBS and ARI scores obtained, flowable composites can be effectively applied to orthodontic bracket bonding.

Transient liquid phase diffusion brazing is used in precision, hermetic joining applications as a replacement for diffusion bonding to reduce cycle times, reduce bonding pressure, and improve yields. In the present study, stainless steel 316L laminae are diffusion brazed with an interlayer of nickel nanoparticles and compared with samples joined by conventional diffusion bonding and electroplated nickel-phosphorous diffusion brazing. Comparison is made with regard to microstructural evolution, diffusional profile, and bond strength. All bonding was carried out in a uni-axial vacuum hot press at 1000°C with a heating rate of 10°C/min, a dwell time of 2 h and a bonding pressure of 10 MPa. Bond strength measurements show that the sample brazed with a nickel nanoparticle interlayer has the lowest void fraction at 4.8±0.9% and highest shear strength at 141.3±7.0 MPa. Wavelength dispersive spectroscopic analysis of sample cross-sections shows substantial diffusion of Ni and Fe across the nickel nanoparticle bond line. Scanning electron micrographs show no secondary phases along the nickel nanoparticle bond line.

Austenitic stainless steel AISI 316L is used for components of cryogenic engine in satellite launch vehicles due to its better mechanical properties at low temperatures. In one such application, AISI 316L stainless steel bellows are used in electro-pneumatic command valve of a cryogenic engine. This valve employs a hydro-formed bellow of 0.14mm thickness as an actuator element. When one of the electro-pneumatic command valve was vibrated without pressure, crack was noticed at the inner diameter of the bellow. Detailed metallurgical analysis indicated that the cracking to be due to fatigue.
