“…On the other hand, the acrylate double-bond band at 810 cm −1 decreases considerably during the MW treatment: this can be attributed to the reaction between the C=C double-bonds with primary/secondary amines, but also to the thermal contribution related to the microwave radiation which induce bond opening, as already reported in literature, [32,33] and as detailed in Figure S3, Supporting Information. Differences in kinetics were found for the different amine structures, but the trend is identical for all.…”

“…High degree of MC of provisional restorations may help to ensure adequate physical and mechanical properties for the restorations. 21 Additionally, it was expected that the high conversion could also reduce the risk of unreacted monomer release that may cause cytotoxic effects. 22 It is known that monomer with low glass transition temperature (Tg) and high flexibility could contribute to high degree of MC of the polymer.…”

“…The acrylic resin is available in two main forms as regards to the material polymerization method: heat-cured acrylic resin using hot water or microwave energy and self-cured acrylic resin. During the polymerization, occurs the conversion of the monomer (methyl methacrylate (MMA)) into polymer (polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA)) [ 2 , 6 ]. However, this conversion is not complete, which results in an amount of residual monomer, which can directly affect the structural integrity of the polymer compromising its flexural strength, hardness, and biocompatibility [ 2 , 7 ].…”
