The objective of this study was to investigate the influence of nanoparticle loading and the use of silane (TSPM), phosphate (PAM) or carboxylic (CAM) methacrylates as coupling agents on key properties of experimental resin luting agents. An experimental photocurable resin blend composed with 50 wt% of Bis-GMA and 50 wt% of TEGDMA was obtained. To study the influence nanoparticle loading, five different experimental resin luting agents were prepared with a total mass fraction of 60% of inorganic fillers. Silanated 2-μm barium borosilicate glass microparticles and 7-nm silica nanoparticles were used; the mass fraction of nanoparticles was set at 0 (control), 1 (G1), 2.5 (G2.5), 5 (G5) and 10% (G10). To study the influence of coupling agents, the resin blend was loaded with a 60% mass fraction of inorganic fillers (59/1 mass ratio of micro/nanoparticles) of Ba-B-Al-Si glass and colloidal silica coated with 5 wt% of TSPM, PAM or CAM; no filler treatment was performed in the control group. The properties evaluated were flexural strength () and modulus (Ef), Knoop hardness number (KHN), and film thickness (FT). Dispersion/interaction of particles with the resin phase was assessed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM).The degree of conversion (DC) was evaluated only to study the influence of coupling agents. Data were submitted to statistical analysis (5%). Results for nanoparticle loading: for , G1 > G2.5 = G5 = G10, and control > G10. For Ef, G2.5 > control = G1 > G5 > G10. For KHN, G5 = G10 > control = G1 = G2.5. For FT, control = G1 < G5 = G10, and G2.5 < G10. Incorporation of nanoparticles was associated with observation of clusters in the SEM analysis. Results for different coupling agents: for  and Ef, TSPM > CAM > control > PAM. For KHN, TSPM > CAM > PAM = control. For FT, TSPM < control < CAM < PAM. The SEM analysis revealed clustering of nanoparticles for all groups and better interaction between the organic-inorganic phases for TSPM and CAM. No significant differences in DC were observed. The results demonstrated that moderate incorporation of silanated silica nanoparticles may improve the properties of hybrid resin cements. However, mass fraction above 2.5% had a detrimental effect on the luting agent properties and the increase of clusters is associated with the increase of nanoparticles. The use of TSPM generated agents with improved properties as compared with the acidic methacrylates, with CAM showing better performance than PAM. The use of PAM generated agents with properties usually poorer compared with the material with no coupling agent.
