The epoxy resin die material tested in this research did not improve its dimensional accuracy following retarding polymerization or modifying the epoxy resin base/activator ratio. The epoxy resin material exhibited higher contraction variability across all tested groups. This shrinkage can significantly affect the dimension of the master cast.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
