The polymerization reaction was carried out according to a radical mechanism, where potassium persulphate (KPS) and sodium thiosulphate (NTS) were the redox initiators and N,N'-methylenebisacrylamide (NNMBA) was the cross-linking monomer.

Properties of resin based cements critical to the success of adhesive restorations include adequate bond strength, low solubility, biocompatibility, color stability, low film thickness and polymerization shrinkage.1 Resin cements are classified according to the filler type (micro, micro, nano), mode of activation (photo, chemical and dual cure) and bonding mechanism (self-etch and total etch).2 Resin cements contain different monomers linked together during polymerization reaction. The characteristics and properties of resin based cements is dependent on the degree of conversion of monomers to polymers.3

The reaction mechanism usually involved free-radical polymerization reaction which largely depends upon the stability of the intermediate transition states, thus the reaction path can be determine by evaluating the stabilities of these states in the reaction mixture [1-4].
