IMPRESSION MATERIALS Flashcards
Yield Strength is
the stress at which a test specimen exhibits a specific amount of plastic strain
Elastic strain
deformation that is recovered upon removal of an externally applied force or pressure
Plastic strain
deformation that is not recoverable when the externally applied force is removed
ALGINATE used At ASDOH
Jeltrate – Regular by Dentsply
AccuDent XD by Ivoclar vivadent
Jeltrate Working and set time
Working time: 2’15
Set time: 3’30
AccuDent XD work and set time
Working time: 2’ & 1’30’’
Set time: 2’45’’ & 3’45’’
Regular alginate setting and work time time is…*****
2½ to 5 minutes set
2‘ working time
Fast alginate setting and work time is…
1 to 2 minutes
30 to 45’‘ working time
The relative amounts of water and powder influence
the flexibility of alginate by…
more water = more flexibility
Alginate impressions are less likely to tear
during removal from the mouth when
they are removed rapidly
Which alginate Water will evaporates if the impression is stored in air, and the impression will…
Shrink
If the impression is placed in water, it absorbs
water and
Expand
Also known as “rubber base” Highest tear strength Not dimensional stable, should be poured within one hour after setting
POLYSULFIDE IMPRESSION
Base polysulfide polymers fillers plasticizers Catalyst lead dioxide (or copper) fillers By-product water
Condensation PVS is supplied as two pastes at ASDOH, What are they?
• The base paste contains poly(dimethylsiloxane),
tetraethylorthosilicatefiller
• The accelerator paste contains metal organic ester
