摘要:
A method and composition for controlling calculus formation in the mouth is reported based upon a combination of a low and high molecular weight polymer. The first polymer is a synthetic anionic polymer having a molecular weight of at least 4000. The second polymer has a molecular weight up to about 2500 and is formed from a mixture of mono- and di- carboxylic vinyl monomers reacted with hypophosphite groups.
摘要:
A method and composition for controlling calculus formation in the mouth is reported based upon a combination of inorganic polyphosphates and certain low molecular weight copolymers. These copolymers are formed from a mixture of mono- and di-carboxylic vinyl monomers reacted with hypophosphite groups. Particularly effective are phosphorous containing acrylate/maleate polymers of weight averaged molecular weight ranging from about 400 to 5000.
