    Polymerization shrinkage evaluation in experimental dental composite filled with montmorillonite nanoparticles
    2018 - CAMPOS, LUIZA M.P.; BOARO, LETICIA C.; SANTOS, TAMIRIS M.R.; SANTOS, VINICIUS J.; GRECCO-ROMANO, REBECA; SANTOS, MARIANA J.; PARRA, DUCLERC F.
    This study aimed to develop experimental dental restorative composites by the addition of montmorillonite (MMT) nanoparticles in a polymeric matrix-based BisGMA/TEGDMA, to assess the possibility of a different dimensional behavior during the photo-polymerization. The characterization of experimental composites was established with the following analyses: thermal–mechanical analysis (TMA), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy. Data for TMA were analyzed using one-way ANOVA and Tukey test (p\0.05). It was observed that the experimental composites filled with MMT nanoparticle showed statistically similar polymerization shrinkage values (by TMA analysis) in the concentration of 30% and statistically lower polymerization shrinkage values in the concentration of 50%, compared to composites filled with barium glass (BG—control groups). These results may be related to the interaction polymeric matrix/MMT nanoparticles and the formation of nanocomposites, observed by XRD and TEM analyses.

    Evaluation of flexural modulus, flexural strength and degree of conversion in BISGMA/TEGDMA resin filled with montmorillonite nanoparticles
    2016 - CAMPOS, LUIZA M.P.; BOARO, LETICIA C.; SANTOS, TAMIRIS M.R.; MARQUES, PAMELA A.; ALMEIDA, SONIA R.Y.; BRAGA, ROBERTO R.; PARRA, DUCLERC F.
    This study had as its main objective to evaluate the flexural properties (strength and modulus) and degree of conversion of a dimethacrylate resin containing different amounts of nanoparticulated clay Montomorillonite (MMT) as filler. A series of composites containing similar amounts (in volume) of barium glass particles was also tested as control data. Eight formulations with polymeric matrix-based BisGMA/TEGDMA (Bisphenol A Bis(2-hydroxy-3 methacryloxypropyl)Ether/ Triethyleneglycol Dimethacrylate), four added with MMTand four added with barium glass in the volume concentration of 20, 30, 40 and 50 vol% were studied. The degree of conversion was determined using near-IR spectroscopy. Elastic modulus and flexural strength were determined by the three-point bending test. The dispersion of MMT nanoparticles was determined by means of X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy analysis. The fillers montomorillonite and barium glass interacted with polymer matrix-based BisGMA/TEGDMA in a distinct manner. Although the addition of montomorillonite nanoparticles resulted in similar degree of conversion and higher elastic modulus values at all concentrations tested, only at the 20 vol% the flexural strength was statistically higher, compared to the control groups filled with barium glass. This could be related to the need of concentration optimization of montomorillonite for each type of polymer matrix in order to adjust or improve mechanical properties. The addition of low concentrations (
