This work aims to determine the degree of conversion of polymers obtained using diurethane dimethacrylate (UDMA) monomer by two different techniques: differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and Fourier transform infrared ...

The objectives of this study were to verify thermal properties, degree of conversion, and morphological features of several dimethacrylate polymers with different glycerol content and obtain the better proportion system ...

Urethane dimethacrylate (UDMA) is a monomer widely used in photopolymerization reactions to produce biomaterials, due to its advantageous properties such as mechanical resistance and relatively low viscosity. However, this ...

The efficiency of 4,4′-bis(N,N-diethylamino)benzophenone (DEABP) for the polymerization of dimethacrylate monomers in thick sections (1–2 mm) was studied. DEABP (λmax = 365 nm) represents a complete initiating system as ...

This work presents the analysis of a polymerization-induced macrophase separation taking place during free-radical copolymerization of styrene and dimethacrylate in the presence of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) as a ...

Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the photobleaching rate of CQ in different dental resins. Methods: The photodecomposition rate of CQ/amine system in bis-GMA/TEGDMA, bis-EMA and UDMA polymerizing monomers ...

The photodecomposition of camphorquinone (CQ)/amine during the photo polymerization of a dimethacrylate-based resin under continuous irradiation was investigated in thick samples. The global CQ photoconsumption was measured ...
