This study determined and compared the influences of various processing techniques including air circulating oven (ACO), dry heat oven (DHO) and water bath (WB) on the impact strength (IS) and microhardness (HV) of the conventional heat cure acrylic resin (CHCAR) and rubber reinforced heat cure acrylic resin (RRHCAR). Samples were fabricated using CHCAR (control Group A; n=114) and RRHCAR (experimental Group B; n=114). Group A and B were further divided into subgroups according to processing techniques: ACO, DHO and WB (n=38 each) for both testing variables microhardness and impact strength (n=19 each). Charpy testing machine and Vickers microhardness tester were utilized. Analysis of variance was applied to determine the presence of significant differences among processing techniques while P-value ≤ 0.05 was considered as significant. Water bath (P-value [0.001) and DHO technique (p-value [0.001) showed significant differences between both groups� impact strength and microhardness. Microhardness of group A and B showed a significant difference (p-value 0.002) when processed by ACO. Impact strength and micro hardness were improved in RRHCAR compared to CHCAR processed by ACO and DHO in comparison to WB technique. Rubber reinforced heat cure acrylic resin revealed improvement in the impact strength and microhardness. The air circulating oven exhibited highest microhardness in both testing materials. Dry heat oven showed improved values of impact strength in conventional heat cure acrylic resin.

Abstract Materials and Methods: In total, 90 specimens were prepared to be used in the study. The specimens were divided into (3) main groups depended on the presence of sisal fibers powder, first group (30) specimens of heat cure PMMA without additives (control), second and third experimental groups of 60 specimens of heat cure PMMA with salinized sisal fibers powder with two different weight percentages (1 and 3%) wt. Three point bending test was used to measure the flexural strength of the specimens, while the impact strength was done by impact testing Charpy’s machine and tensile test was performed according to ASTM (D-638). Data analysis was performed using (ANOVA) test. The results of this study refer to a highly significant in the flexural strength and tensile strength of specimens reinforced with sisal fibers powder compared with control specimens. Non-significant difference was detected in impact strength among the reinforced groups and control gro. Reinforcement of acrylic resin with natural sisal fibers powder affects its flexural strength and tensile strength with non-significant in impact strength.

Abstract Objectives This study aimed at assessing the effect of the addition of silver nanoparticles (SNPs) to a silicone soft liner on its tensile bond strength to denture base resin. Materials and Methods SNPs were added to Mucopren cold cure soft liner in 0 (control), 0.5, 1, 2, and 3 wt% concentrations and bonded in 120 stainless steel molds with processed heat cure acrylic resin blocks. Liner/resin combination samples were divided into two groups. The first half was stored for 2 days in distilled water at 37°C and then subjected to tensile bond strength, while the other half were thermocycled 3000 times before testing. Mean bond strength, expressed in mega pascals (MPa), was determined in the tensile test with the use of a universal testing machine at a crosshead speed of 5 mm/min. Statistical Analysis Data were analyzed using SPSS via one-way analysis of variance test, t-test, and Tukey’s posthoc, at a 95% confidence level (p < 0.05). Results Addition of SNPs and thermocycling both caused a significant reduction in the tensile bond strength of Mucopren to acrylic resin; however, in the thermocycled group, the bond strength increased with the increase in the concentration of SNPs (p < 0.001). Conclusion Addition of SNPs to Mucopren soft silicone liner reduces its tensile bond strength to denture acrylic resin.

Background. The current study evaluated the compressive, flexural and impact strengths of heat-cured acrylic resins reinforced by TiO2 nanoparticles (NPs). Methods. TiO2 NPs were provided and characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) to determine their morphology and crystalline structure. For three mechanical tests, 12 acrylic resin groups (n=9), totaling 108 specimens, were prepared using a special mold for each test, with TiO2 nanoparticle contents of 0, 0.5, 1 or 2 wt% in different groups. After curing, the compressive, flexural and impact strengths of the specimens were examined according to ISO 1567. Results. In the SEM and XRD study of TiO2 NPs, anatase was identified as the major crystalline phase followed by rutile (average particle size: 20.4 nm). SEM images showed that the nanocomposite with 1 wt% NPs had a more homogenized blend. 1 wt% TiO2 nanocomposite exhibited a higher, but non-significant, impact strength compared to the controls. ANOVA showed significant differences in the impact and flexural strengths between nanocomposites with various contents of TiO2 NPs. Conclusion. The nanocomposite with 1 wt% TiO2 NPs exhibited fewer micro-pores and micro-cracks in the SEM cross-sections. A non-significant increase was also observed in the impact strength with TiO2 NPs at 1 wt%. Further increase in TiO2 NPs decreased both the impact and flexural strengths. The compressive strength of the heat-cured acrylic resin was not affected by the incorporation of NPs.

Background: A residual monomer might have impact on the quality of acrylic resin since its caused allergic reactions and inflammation. Chitosan is a biocompatible material and potential to reduce residual monomers and ameliorate the impact strength of acrylic resin Objective of the study: To examine the effect of an acrylic resin matrix mixed with chitosan together with 1% and 2% acrylic acid as denture base and orthodontic material on residual monomers and impact strength. Methodology: There were 30 samples for the test analysis. The impact strength test sample formed with a plate size of 55 × 10 × 10mm, whereas the residual monomer test sample was prepared into powder. The test samples were divided into 3 groups, of 10 samples. Group 1 acrylic resin only, group 2 acrylic resin matrix mixed with chitosan and 1% acrylic acid, group 3 is the same as group 2 but with a concentration of 2% acrylic acid. Gas chromatography was used for measuring the residual monomers. The impact strength was tested by the Charpy impact. The data was evaluated using the ANOVA and correlation test. Results: There were significant differences (p < 0.05) in acrylic resin without addition with the matrix of acrylic resin with chitosan and acrylic acid 1% and 2% to the number of monomers and impact strength. Conclusion: The mixture of acrylic resin with chitosan and acrylic acid 1% and 2% can reduce the amount of residual monomer and increase the impact strength.
