In previous notes, I recommended Panavia V5 resin cement with ClearFil Ceramic Primer Plus (Kuraray Noriteka Dental Inc.) which has 10-MDP monomer. This monomer has the phosphate that allows chemical bonding to the oxide surface of zirconia.

In this article, the authors use Alloy Primer (Kuraray America) & Ea-Z-y Primer (Parkell) for the same purpose of chemical bonding after pretreatment of microabrasion with 50 micro aluminum oxide powder for micromechanical bonding on the intaglio surface of Zirconia crown. All these increase shear bond strength and retention of Zirconia crown besides proper preparation of tooth abutment.
