title: Dynamic mechanical thermal analysis of dental polymers. II. Bis-phenol A-related resins.
abstract: Dynamic mechanical analysis of bis-phenol A-related resins for dental usage provided loss tangent maxima at their transitions and an Arrhenius-type dependence of transition temperature and frequency. A constant maximum in the loss tangent curves, over the frequency range for the unfilled resins below their glass transition temperature, was thought to be caused by their high degree of unsaturation. The calculated activation energies showed the polycarbonate denture base resin required considerably greater energy for segmental motion than the other tested materials. In contrast, the ethylene imine-based temporary crown and bridge material exhibited the lowest activation energy.
