The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of acidic primers on bonding magnetic steel alloys. Three alloys (XM27, 447J1, and AUM20) were primed with one of the following materials: Acryl Bond, Estenia Opaque Primer, Eye Sight Opaque Primer, M. L. Primer, or Super-Bond liquid. The specimens were bonded with a tri-n-butylborane initiated resin, and bond strength was determined both before and after thermocycling in water. Unprimed specimen was considered as the control. Average bond strength varied from 0 to 45.3 MPa for the XM27 alloy, 0.3 to 43.6 MPa for the 447J1 alloy, and 0.5 to 41.1 MPa for the AUM20 alloy. Of the five primers, Estenia Opaque Primer exhibited better adhesive performance than the other materials regardless of the type of steel alloy. It can be concluded that the use of the Estenia Opaque Primer, which contains an adhesive monomer (10-methacryloyloxydecyl dihydrogen phosphate; MDP), is recommended for bonding the three magnetic steel alloys with TBB-initiated resin.
