Rapid curing of acrylic denture-base materials.
A rapid-cure polymerization of cure, including a terminal boil, with respect to transparency, residual monomer, mechanical properties, and generation of gaseous porosity. It was found that in order for porosity-free resin to be produced during rapid curing, a low concentration (approximately 0.26%) of benzoyl peroxide initiator in the powder component is vital, and a very small concentration (approximately 0.025%) of the chemical activator dimethyl-p-toluidine in the monomer component is an advantage. Mechanical properties were only influenced where substantial porosity existed, but it was recognized that a material "tailor-made" for rapid curing would be most welcome.
