Abstract

Abstract An adhesive composition comprises 100 parts by weight of a polymerizable monomer comprising (a) 1.5 to 100 parts by weight of a compound represented by general formula I or II: <IMAGE> (I) or <IMAGE> (II) where R1 and R1' each stand for hydrogen or a methyl group, R2 stands for a divalent organic residue having 4 to 40 carbon atoms, X1 and X2 each stand for -O-, -S- or -NH-, a is 0 or 1, and R3 stands for a group of the formula <IMAGE> having 6 to 40 carbon atoms, where R4 and R4' each stand for a hydrocarbon group having 1 to 29 carbon atoms, and optionally replaced by a halogen atom, or a hydroxyl, amino or carboxyl group, b is an integer of 0 to 3, and Z stands for -O-, -COO- or -NH-, a plurality of R4' (when b is 2 or 3) being the same or different, at least one of R4 and R4' having at least three carbon atoms, and (b) 0 to 98.5 parts by weight of a vinyl monomer copolymerizable with the above compound; and 0.01 to 20 parts by weight of a curing agent. It shows a superior adhesive strength on any of hard tissues in a living body, such as teeth and bones, metals, organic polymers and ceramics. It maintains a high adhesive strength for a long time even if it is exposed to moisture, or immersed in water. It is particularly effective for use in dentistry, though it is useful for a variety of other purposes, too.
