[Preparation of hard crown and bridge resin without PMMA powder (author's transl)].
Elimination of PMMA powder to prepare better hard crown and bridge resin had been pointed out by the authors even though polyfunctional methacrylates were used. Application of hydrophobic coloidal silica instead of PMMA pearl with triethyleneglycol dimethacrylate and Bis-GMA was studied. Polyermization was carried out in the hot air stream at 120 degrees approximately 130 degrees C or in a pressure vessel at 4.5 kg/cm2 gauge, 100 degrees C. Mechanical properties, brinell hardness, compressive strength, an amount of water sorption, comparative average abrasion loss depth with those of PMMA, were measured. They were improved very much by this new system.
