Visible Light Curable Restorative Composites for Dental Applications Based on Epoxy Monomer
نویسندگان
چکیده
A cationic photo-curable cycloaliphatic epoxy resin has been investigated as reactive monomer in blue light crosslinking process. We have demonstrated that camphorquinone is able to abstract labile hydrogen from the epoxy monomer, giving rise to the formation of carbon-centered radicals that are oxidized by the onium salt; a complete epoxy group conversion was reached after 50 s of irradiation. The presence of water up to 1 wt% was tolerated without any important detrimental effect on the kinetics of light-curing. The presence of the inorganic filler up to 65 wt% did not significantly influence the curing process.

متن کاملEffect of monomer structure on the mechanical properties of light-cured composite resins.
The effects of monomer structure on the mechanical properties of visible light-cured composite resins based on the seven types of aromatic dimethacrylates were investigated. The results of this study suggested that the mechanical properties of the composite resins were dependent upon the chemical structure of the dimethacrylate monomers employed. The composites based on dimethacrylates with hyd...
