The purpose of this article was to review the biocompatibility, physical, and mechanical properties of the polyamide denture base materials. An electronic search of scientific papers from 1990-2014 was carried out using PubMed, Scopus and Wiley Inter Science engines using the search terms "nylon denture base" and "polyamide denture base". Searching the key words yielded a total of 82 articles. ...

Abstract Nanocalorimetry and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy are combined to measure the calorimetric properties molecular spectra of same sample (sample amount about 5 ng) polyamide 66 (PA66). By determining IR difference absorption between a quenched annealed at varying temperatures ( T ) annealing time t ), initial steps homogeneous nucleation is for first revealed on scale, l...
