Effects of water boiling, microwave, and water bath post-polymerization on mechanical properties of acrylic denture resins

Abstract: Acrylic restorations in the mouth are exposed to strong occlusal forces. Their mechanical properties depend on the type and method of their polymerization. The aim of this study is a comparative analysis of mechanical properties (flexural strength and modulus of elasticity) of acrylic materials before and after the post-polymerization treatments (water boiling, microwave irradiation and water storage). The study included denture base resins, as well as an acrylate for orthodontic appliances impregnated with ae… Show more

“…Previous studies have indicated the potentially toxic effect of certain unbound substances from acrylic materials 11,[16][17][18] . Research by Kostic et al indicated a decrease in the amount of these components in the samples of the material after their immersion in the aqueous environment 19 and the post-polymerization procedures 20 .…”

“…Incomplete polymerization increases liquid absorption and solubility of dental acrylates. Residual monomer acts as a plasticizer in the material, but the decrease in the quality of the material can be attributed to the release of residual monomer into saliva and the compensatory absorption of liquid from the oral environment, which leads to the plasticization of the material and makes it more flexible and resilient [ 36 ]. The amount and rate of water absorption depend on network density, potential hydrogen bonds, and polar interactions.…”

“…The release of residual monomer into the oral cavity is intensive [38,39], especially in the case of cold polymerized acrylates, which contain a significant amount of residual monomer. Some studies [31][32][33][34] have shown that the additional polymerization (post-polymerization) of acrylate polymers and immersion into a water bath, can improve their biological and mechanical properties, by decreasing residual monomer content.…”
