Q

Modulus of elasticity

  • Discovered by?
  • Do metals or ceramics have a larger E? Which can handle tensile forces better?
A

Slope of the stress/strain curve at the elastic portion

Hooke

Ceramics have larger E as they are bonded covalently/ionically, which is stronger than metallic bond. Metals can tolerate large tensile strain, but not as much compression

59
Q

Describe the PMMA polymerization process according to Ivobase scientific documentation

A

Liquid (MMA) and resin powder (PMMA) are mixed together to form a dough-like kneadable substance.

The initiator is split into radicals either by heat or by chemical reaction with the catalyst. It interferes with the electron system of the double bond of the monomer molecule ands splits this bond. After the addition of the monomer molecule, a chain radical is formed which then attacks another monomer and links with it. Chain growth occurs then chain radicals connect to form a macromolecule.

This would usually result in volume loss due to the individual molecules being closer to each other. Injection based system overcomes this.

Q

Typical pros/cons for chemical cure

What about Ivobase?

  • total cure time
  • How many lb’s of constant pressure?

Ivobase: Stronger, monomer conversion is less than 1%, minimal shrinkage, no direct skin contact with monomer. Total cure time is one hour. 15 pounds of constant pressure.

62
Q

Five stages of mixing denture acrylic

Typical ratio of monomer to polymer?

A
  1. Sandy stage - Fluid mass occurs as polymer is settling into monomer
  2. Stringy stage - Monomer starts to attack the polymer - very sticky, tacky and adheres to sides of the jar
  3. Smooth dough like stage - Monomer diffuses into polymer. Does not adhere to sides; No tackiness
  4. Rubber like stage - Further penetration of monomer into polymer; resin cannot be packed
  5. Stiff (set)

A: 1 monomer to 3 polymer

63
Q

Types of errors during packing dentures? (3)

A
  1. Porosity due to not enough packed material or pressure is lost
  2. Gaseous porosity due to excessive heat (above 212°F) due to gaseous - If thick denture base can rise in heat too quickly
  3. Granular porosity due to usage of inadequately mixed resin - Not enough monomer - Dried out monomer
