The purpose of this study was to characterize denture and soft liner adhesion and to determine the adhesive and/or cohesive strength of different soft tissue liners bonded to the denture base by use of a new technique. Two groups of five permanent soft liners (dry or exposed to water for 6 months) were tested by use of a tensile mode to characterize the failure characteristics of soft liners bonded to denture base resin. The method differed from previous test methods because of the specimen's ability to align axially during the test. The results indicated significant differences in the bonding of liners to the denture base, and light-cure systems exhibited the greatest amount of stress needed for failure. Low bond strength was observed when the adhesion was poor or when the cohesive strength of the soft liner was low and lead to pure adhesive or cohesive failure. When both adhesive and cohesive bonds were strong, failure occurred at high stresses. Combinations of adhesive and cohesive failures (mixed mode) were also observed in intermediate cases.

D008689	Methacrylates	Acrylic acids or acrylates which are substituted in the C-2 position with a methyl group.	Methacrylate
D008855	Microscopy, Electron, Scanning	Microscopy in which the object is examined directly by an electron beam scanning the specimen point-by-point. The image is constructed by detecting the products of specimen interactions that are projected above the plane of the sample, such as backscattered electrons. Although SCANNING TRANSMISSION ELECTRON MICROSCOPY also scans the specimen point by point with the electron beam, the image is constructed by detecting the electrons, or their interaction products that are transmitted through the sample plane, so that is a form of TRANSMISSION ELECTRON MICROSCOPY.
