In this study, the mechanical properties of two different permanent soft lining materials and their bonding to poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) were compared. Both of the soft liners were heat-cured commercial materials. The polymerization was carried out by conventional methods suggested by manufacturer, and the curing was done at the temperature of boiling water for 5, 15, 25, and 35 min. The sample groups were tested in the computer-aided tensile-testing machine at a rate of 2 mm/min. The slow rate helps the collection of more and more reliable data. At this time, the stress-strain curves were used to calculate ultimate tensile strength, elastic modulus, resilience, and toughness. The measurements were carried for PMMA, Molloplast B, Flexor, and a combination of PMMA,/soft liner. After introducing the soft lining material on PMMA of the same thickness, the new material structure was more elastic than the original PMMA. Flexor showed adhesive failure at studied curing periods, but Molloplast B gave larger tear strength values and cohesive rather than adhesive failure at the 25-min and 35-min curing times.

Dynamic mechanical properties of dental base material reinforced with glass fiber
Karacaer, O; Dogan, A; Dogan, OM; Usanmaz, Ali (Wiley, 2002-08-22)
Dynamic mechanical properties of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) reinforced with glass fibers were investigated. The composite used as dental base material contained other additives for different purposes to give the same appearance as natural dentals. The fiber-polymer bonding and orientation of fibers in polymer matrix are very important in the application of the product. To see that, the fibers were treated with silane and compared with untreated fibers. The commercial polymer and monomer used were the ...
Viscoelastic characteristics of chain extended/branched and linear polyethylene terephthalate resins
Yılmazer, Ülkü; Xanthos, M; Bayram, Göknur; Tan, V (Wiley, 2000-03-01)
Two chemically modified chain extended/branched polyethylene terephthalate (PET) resins and one unmodified resin, considered to be linear, were characterized in terms of their melt flow, die swell, and viscoelastic properties. The three resins had reportedly similar nominal intrinsic viscosities but exhibited different viscoelastic behavior. The modified resins had lower melt flow index, higher die swell, higher complex viscosity and higher storage modulus than the unmodified one. The Cole-Cole plots of the...
Tensile Bond Strength of a Highly Cross-Linked Denture Tooth to the Compression-Molded and Injection-Molded Denture Base Polymers
DOĞAN, ARİFE; Korkmaz, Turan; DOĞAN, ORHAN MURAT; Keskin, Selda; DEMİR, HAKAN (Informa UK Limited, 2009-01-01)
This study compared tensile bond strengths between conventional compression-molded heat (HC)-, auto (AP)-, and microwave-polymerized (MC) poly(methyl methacrylate)-based denture resins and a relatively new injection-molded, microwave-polymerized polyurethane based resin (MI) bonded to a highly cross-linked denture tooth. In the first part of the experiments, denture teeth were used as received. In the second part, they were treated with dichloromethane to see its effect on bonding of conventional denture ba...
Flexible and conducting composites of polypyrrole and polydimethylsiloxane
Cahmak, G; Kucukyavuz, Z; Kucukyavuz, S (Wiley, 2004-07-15)
Conductive and flexible polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS)/polypyrrole (PPy) composites were synthesized electrochemically. Electrochemical syntheses were performed at +1.10 V by using p-toluene sulfonic acid (PTSA) as supporting electrolyte and water as solvent. Composites were characterized by cyclic voltammetry, thermogravimetric analysis, differential scanning calorimetry, scanning electron microscopy, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Conductivity measurements and mechanical tests were also perform...
Thermal and dynamic mechanical properties of microwave and heat-cured poly(methyl methacrylate) used as dental base material
Muhtarogullari, IY; Dogan, A; Muhtarogullari, M; Usanmaz, Ali (Wiley, 1999-12-13)
In this study, the particle size distribution, molecular weight, thermal analysis (TGA) differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis, and dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) of poly(methyl methacrylate) used as dental base material were investigated. The commercial raw material used were prepared for microwave curing, and they were cured by microwave and conventional heat methods. The average particle size of the powder studied (103.1 mu m) were much larger than that of the commercia...
