ABSTRAK Pendahuluan: Gigi artifisial akrilik berbahan dasar resin memiliki fungsi estetis yang sangat diperhatikan dan harus selalu dijaga kebersihannya. Ekstrak kulit manggis 15% klorheksidin 0,2% dapat digunakan sebagai bahan pembersih gigi tiruan. Tujuan penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis apakah ada pengaruh perendaman dalam ekstrak selama 1 tahun 2 terhadap stabilitas warna. Metode...

Objective: Zirconium dioxide (ZrO2) nanofillers were added to denture liners improve their physical properties. The main goal of this research was evaluate the impact adding nano zirconium oxide fillers on color change, water sorption and solubility silicone acrylic liners. Materials Method: surface ZrO2 nanoparticles modified via treatment with silane coupling agent (3-aminopropyl) triethoxysi...

Stochastic transitivity (ST) is a property of preferences among pairs of objects formed from three alternatives, a, b, and c. In general, ST states that if a is preferred to b, and b is preferred to c, then a will be preferred to c. Stochastic transitivity can be weak, moderate, strong or strict (see text). In the present paper, we analyse the presence and degree of ST in the data from two expe...

Water-base pressure sensitive adhesives dominate the market of adhesives applied to paper. These materials are formulated as emulsions of acrylic polymers in water. Surfactants are used to stabilize the hydrophobic polymer particles. When water-based adhesives are dried, particles coalesce and surfactant segregates to interparticle domains that provide pathways for water to enter the adhesive f...

In this paper, the synthesis of new montmorillonite nanocomposite hydrogel (MMTNH) based on poly (acrylic acid-co-acrylamide) grafted onto starch, is described. Montmorillonite (MMT) as nanometer base, acrylic acid (AA) and acrylamide (AAm) as monomers, ammonium persulfate (APS) as an initiator, N,N-methylenebisacrylamide (MBA) as a crosslinker and starch as a biocompatible polymer were pre...

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM Two potential problems commonly identified with a denture base incorporating a resilient liner are failure of the bond between acrylic resin and soft liner material, and loss of resiliency of the soft liner over time. Since patients may drink different beverages, it is important to evaluate their effects on physical properties of soft lining materials. PURPOSE The objecti...

Acrylic-based coatings are produced in formulations to suit all the major markets within the coatings industry. Industrial, decorative, printing inks, powder, and wall coverings are some of the market areas where acrylic-based coatings are widely used. Water emulsion and film-forming acrylic-based coatings are of particular importance due to their relative high performance and extremely low vol...

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM Fracture of a repaired denture base often occurs at the junction of the base and repair materials rather than within these materials. PURPOSE The purpose of the study was to evaluate the shear bond strengths of 4 denture base acrylic resins following the use of 3 chemical solvents and to examine treated acrylic resin surfaces under a field emission scanning electron micro...

This study investigated the dimensional stability of denture bases influenced by packing methods, in relation to post-pressing times, in the Clássico acrylic resin which was prepared according to manufacturer recommendations. Forty maxillary wax bases were made and randomly assigned into 2 groups of 20 specimens each according to the conventional and RS system packing methods. In each method, t...
