The physical properties of a new sealing cement.
This study was performed on a newly developed sealing cement, TS60, to evaluate its physical properties, namely sealing, setting time, compressive strength, solubility and ease of removal. It was compared with Temporary Stopping (GC Dental Industrial Corp., Tokyo, Japan), Eugedain (zinc oxide-eugenol based material, Showa Yakuhin Kako Co. Ltd, Tokyo, Japan) and Cavit-G (calcium sulphate based material, Espe Gmbh, Seefeld, Germany), which are typical commercially available sealing cements. The results of the study revealed that TS60 had excellent sealing properties, good compressive strength, low solubility, and was readily removable by heating and melting.
