摘要:
Silica gels of a mean grain size of about 0.5 to 50 .mu.m are subjected to a heat or acid treatment that considerably reduces their surface area and the volume of pores smaller than 50 nm, while maintaining approximately the same grain size distribution and amorphous structure. These products are colorless and can be worked into a resinous molding material in relatively large quantities, especially as a filler for dental materials based on polymerizable monomers, in particular mono-, di- or polyfunctional esters of acrylic or methacrylic acid. In the completely hardened condition, these materials have good mechanical characteristics, less polymerization shrinkage, very low thermal expansion coefficients, excellent transparency and tooth similarity resulting from the favorable refractive index of the filler, as well as very good ability to be polished and abrasion resistance.
摘要:
Oligomeric or prepolymeric organic compounds that contain both polymerizable unsaturated groups and acid radicals, their salts, or their reactive-derivative radicals. The compounds exhibit outstanding adhesion properties, especially to biological substrates, and are appropriate for application as bonding agents, adhesive filling materials, or adhesive cements in the fields of dentistry and medicine.
