[Effects of diaryliodonium on the properties of light-curing composite resin]
1Department of Dental Materials, West China School of Stomatology, Sichuan University, Chengdu 610041, China.
Objective:
To test the effects of two kinds of diaryliodonium on the degree of conversion (DC), the compressive strength (CS) and the cure depth (CD) of the light-curing composite resin.
Methods:
BisS-GMA was used as reisin matrix, with TEGDMA as diluent and SiO2 as inorganic filler. CQ, DMAEMA and two different kinds of diaryliodonium (diphenyliodonium hexafluorophosphate and bis (p-tolyl) iodonium hexafluorophosphate) were used as photoinitiator, respectively. The DC, CS, CD were measured and compared by the FTIR spectroscopy, and the tensile strength of machine et al.
Results:
Diaryliodonium led to greater DC, CS, and CD of the light-curing composite resin. The DC, CS, and CD of the light-curing composite resin increased more with bis (p-tolyl) iodonium hexafluorophosphate than with diphenyliodonium hexafluorophosphate.
Conclusion:
Diaryliodonium can improve the DC, CS, and CD properties of light-curing composite resin. Bis (p-tolyl) iodonium hexafluorophosphate has better performance than diphenyliodonium hexafluorophosphate in improving photosensibility and solubility of the photoinitiator system.

Characteristics of Dienophiles
Generally, the best dienophiles are alkenes containing electron-withdrawing substituents such as carbonyl, nitrile, and nitro groups. The feasibility of a Diels–Alder reaction depends on...

Conformation
The simplest example of a diene is 1,3-butadiene, an acyclic conjugated π system. At room temperature, the molecule exists as a mixture of s-cis and s-trans conformers by virtue of rotation around the carbon–carbon single bond. Although the s-trans isomer is more stable, the...
