Effect Of Thermocycling On The Fracture Toughness Of Composites, Noor Hayaty Abu Kasim Abu Kasim N.H.

Fracture toughness has been recognised to be one of the most important mechanical property for retorative materials. It is the aim of this study to investigate the effect of thermocycling an fracture toughness of a range of dental composites; P50(P)1 , Silux Plus(S)2, Heliomolar(H)3, Clearfil Photo Posterior-light activated(CLA)4 and Clearfil Posterior-chemically activated(CC)3. 110 rectangular pre-notched specimens was prepared for each material utilising a stainless steel mould. The specimens were divided into 11 groups of 10 each. Test groups 1-6 were subjected to 0, 250, 500, 750, 1000 and 10,000 thermal cycles respectively. All specimens were subjected to a 3 point …
