Mechanical Properties Of Polymer Infiltrated Ceramic Network Materials

The mechanical properties of the picn are equivalent to the properties of nanoceramic resins lower to lithium disilicate glass ceramic and superior to feldspathic porcelain.

Mechanical properties of polymer infiltrated ceramic network materials.

Comparing the results to natural teeth a very promising step toward imitating natural teeth has been realized with picns which was also reported by he and swain. Of a range of novel polymer infiltrated ceramic network picn materials. Dental restorative materials with high mechanical properties and biocompatible performances are promising. The flexural strength and elastic modulus were measured using three point bending.

Four ceramic network densities ranging from 59 to 72 of theoretical density resin infiltrated picn as well as pure polymer and dense ceramic cross sections were subjected to vickers indentations hv 5 for hardness evaluation. Dental restorative materials with high mechanical properties and biocompatible performances are promising. In this work polymer infiltrated ceramic network materials picns were fabricated via. Four ceramic network densities ranging from 59 to 72 of theoretical density resin infiltrated picn as well as pure polymer and dense ceramic cross sections were subjected to vickers indentations hv 5 for hardness.
