title: The application of fluorinated aromatic dimethacrylates to experimental light-cured radiopaque composite resin, containing barium-borosilicate glass filler--a progress in nonwaterdegradable properties.
abstract: This study investigated the durability, especially the nonwaterdegradable qualities, of experimental light-cured composite resin containing barium-borosilicate glass filler. For this purpose, Bis-GMA, a typical component of base monomer in conventional composite resin, was replaced by Bis-GMA-F which is water-repellent. After over 20,000 thermal cycles, the composite resin containing Bis-GMA retained only 60 approximately 70% of its initial compressive, diametral tensile, flexural strength and flexural elastic modulus. However, the experimental composite resin containing Bis-GMA-F as a resin matrix showed no loss of compressive, diametral tensile strength or flexural elastic modulus, although flexural strength showed some deterioration. It was considered that the difference between Bis-GMA-F and Bis-GMA, as resin matrix, caused variation in the characteristics of water sorption.
