Objectives: This study is an attempt to enhance the properties of conventional PMMA denture material by incorporation of a polyfunctional polyol derived from palm oil by copolymerization with methyl methacrylate monomer to overcome the low fatigue resistance property of PMMA. Methods: A series of copolymerizations of palm oil polyol with MMA was performed in solution. The polyol was added from 40-20 %, MMA from 20-40% , benzoyl peroxide as initiator was at 0.04% and toluene used as solvent was at 60 % of the total weight. The copolymerization was carried out in a 500ml-round-bottom reaction flask, equipped with a magnetic …

Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the degree of conversion and cross-linking of polyurethane dimethacrylate (PUDMA), derived from palm oil polyol, for dental resin application. Methods: Polyurethane dimethacrylate was synthesized by reacting excess amount of Methylene diphenyl diisocyanate (MDI) with palm oil polyol. The resulting isocyanate polyurethane prepolymer was then acrylated using hydroxymethacrylate (HEMA). Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy was used to ascertain the formation of PUDMA, and to determine the degree of conversion (DC) of: I) PUDMA, II) Bis-GMA, III)Bis-EMA,IV) Bis-GMA/TEGDMA (3:1), V) Bis-GMA/TEGDMA(3:1)/Bis-EMA (3:1), VI) PUDMA/Bis-EMA (3:1), VII) Bis-GMA/TEGDMA(3:1)/PUDMA (1:1), and VIII) Bis-GMA/TEGDMA(3:1)/PUDMA/Bis-EMA (1-1-1). The photo …

Objectives:Biocompatibility is an important desirable property for a dental polymer and it can be achieved by utilizing more materials from natural sources. The flexural strength of an experimental polymer prepared from MMA monomer modified with palm-oil polyol was compared to two commercial resins,namely the Lucitone 199® (Dentsply Trubyte, USA) and Impact (Ivoclar Vivadent, Liechtenstein). Methods: The experimental polymer was prepared by copolymerizing MMA monomer and palm oil polyol. The resulting polymer was cast into a plate form and sectioned using a precision diamond saw (Buhler, Germany) to form 10 specimens of dimension, 65mm x 11mm x 5mm. These specimens were …
Demineralization Potential Of Qat Extracts At Composite Restoration Interface, Noor Hayaty Abu Kasim Abu Kasim N.H.
Demineralization Potential Of Qat Extracts At Composite Restoration Interface, Noor Hayaty Abu Kasim Abu Kasim N.H.
Noor Hayaty Abu Kasim Abu Kasim N.H.
Objective: To evaluate the demineralization potential of qat extracts at composite restoration interface. Methods: Class V cavities were prepared on the buccal surface of thirty extracted sound premolars and were restored with a nanohybrid composite (Grandio, VOCO, Germany). Specimens were subsequently coated with nail varnish exposing 2mm of enamel around the restoration margin. The specimens were divided into three equal groups of 10 and were then immersed in acid gel and qat extracts (10% and 20%) for 4 weeks. All specimens were removed and washed using deionized water and later examined by direct vision and stereomicroscope prior to sectioning. Specimens …
