Effect of Molding Technique on Iwo Physical Properties of Acrylic Resin Specimens
Abstract:
The aim of this study was to compare dimensional changes and flexural strength of specimens processed by conventional and injection-molding techniques. SR-Ivocap Triplex Hot Resin was used for conventional pressure-packed, and SR-Ivocap High Impact was used for injection-molding techniques. Measurements were recorded at 24-hour, 48-hour and 12-day intervals. Three-point test and statistical analysis were carried out. After each water storage period, the acrylic specimens produced by injection method exhibited less dimensional change compared to those produced by the conventional technique. Within the limitation of this study, dimensional changes and flexural strength of acrylic resin specimens were influenced by molding technique, and the SR-Ivocap injection procedure exhibited higher dimensional accuracy and flexural strength compared to conventional molding.

Physical Properties Affecting Solubility
As for any solution, the solubility of a gas in a liquid is affected by the attractive intermolecular forces between solute and solvent species. Unlike solid and liquid solutes, however, there is no solute-solute intermolecular attraction to overcome when a gaseous solute dissolves in a liquid solvent since the atoms or molecules comprising a gas are far separated and experience negligible interactions. Consequently, solute-solvent interactions are the sole...

Physical Properties of Ethers
An ether molecule has a net dipole moment due to the polarity of C–O bonds. Subsequently, boiling points of ethers are lower than those of alcohols of comparable molecular weight and slightly higher than those of hydrocarbons of comparable molecular weight (Table 1).
Ethers can act as hydrogen bond acceptors, making them more water-soluble than hydrocarbons, but since ethers cannot act as hydrogen bond donors, they are much less soluble in water than alcohols. Ethers are considered...
