To study the effects of incorporating a further crosslinking agent and a novel surfactant on the water absorption behaviour of experimental VPS impression materials.
Part 1: The water uptake behaviour of Aquasil-Ultra-Monophase (AqM) was studied gravimetrically in three media (DW, 1%NaOCl and Perform ID), at 23 °C and 37 °C, over a period of one and four-months (n = 5) to gain information on long-term immersion. Part 2: Five experimental materials were formulated: Exp-I and II as hydrophobic and Exp-III-V as hydrophilic, containing an additional cross-linking agent (TFDMSOS) and Rhodasurf CET-2 surfactant. Their water uptake and desorption (both at 23 °C) properties (gravemetrically), solubility, pH and diffusion coefficient (DC) data were compared with three commercial, hydrophilic VPS impression materials, over seven days (n = 5). The results were analysed statistically.
Part 1: Significant differences in water absorbed by AqM were observed in the three media at 23 °C. Aq M had a significantly higher uptake in 2% Perform ID, than in DW and NaOCl. At 37 °C, over four-months the uptake profiles were more enhanced and differed. Part 2: All Exp and commercial materials significantly increased in weight in both media (DW and 1% NaOCl at 23 °C), with differing uptake profiles and non-reached equilibrium. Exp-VPS absorbed significantly less water than commercial-VPS. Desorption of all VPS from both parts was faster than absorption, followed Fickian diffusion kinetics and reached equilibrium within 1-3 days. Desorption DCs for Exp-VPS were higher than commercial materials (10 versus 10 m s). The solubility was higher in 1% NaOCl compared to DW. The pH of DW after immersion of samples significantly increased compared to 1% NaOCl.
The incorporation of novel cross-linking agent, TFDMSOS and non-ionic surfactant, Rhodasurf CET-2, (ethoxylated-cetyl-oleyl alcohol) improved the dimensional stability of hydrophilic Exp-VPS in DW and 1% NaOCl. These materials merit further research in producing accurate casts of the patient's anatomy following disinfection.
研究进一步交联剂和新型表面活性剂对实验性 VPS 印模材料吸水行为的影响。
第 1 部分:通过重量法在 3 种介质(DW、1%NaOCl 和 Perform ID)中,在 23°C 和 37°C 下,对 Aquasil-Ultra-Monophase(AqM)的吸水率进行研究,在一个月和四个月的时间内(n=5),以获得长期浸泡的信息。第 2 部分:配制了 5 种实验材料:Exp-I 和 Exp-II 为疏水性,Exp-III-V 为亲水性,均含有额外的交联剂(TFDMSOS)和 Rhodasurf CET-2 表面活性剂。在 7 天内(n=5),通过重量法比较了它们的吸水率和脱吸(均在 23°C)、溶解度、pH 值和扩散系数(DC)数据,与 3 种商业亲水 VPS 印模材料进行比较。对结果进行了统计学分析。
第 1 部分:在 23°C 下,AqM 在三种介质中的吸水率存在显著差异。AqM 在 2%Perform ID 中的吸收量显著高于 DW 和 NaOCl。在 37°C 下,四个月后,吸收曲线更加明显不同。第 2 部分:在 23°C 的两种介质(DW 和 1%NaOCl)中,所有 Exp 和商业材料的重量均显著增加,吸收曲线不同,未达到平衡。Exp-VPS 的吸水率明显低于商业-VPS。所有 VPS 的解吸速度均快于吸收,随后遵循菲克扩散动力学,在 1-3 天内达到平衡。Exp-VPS 的解吸 DC 高于商业材料(10 对 10 m s)。在 1%NaOCl 中的溶解度高于 DW。与 1%NaOCl 相比,DW 浸泡样品后的 pH 值显著升高。
新型交联剂 TFDMSOS 和非离子表面活性剂 Rhodasurf CET-2 的加入提高了亲水性 Exp-VPS 在 DW 和 1%NaOCl 中的尺寸稳定性。这些材料在经过消毒后,为生产患者解剖结构的精确印模提供了进一步的研究价值。
