Abstract
Powder-liquid type metal-resin composites, using Ag-Sn irregular particles as the filler, 4-META as coupling agent and UDMA + TEGDMA as resin matrix, were experimentally prepared under 9 different conditions (three different particle sizes and three different filler contents). The flexural strength and flexural modulus were measured. Three different irregular particle size MRCs without redox-initiator at 94% filler content, as well as amalgam, conventional hybrid composite and Ag-Sn spherical particle MRC were evaluated for condensability. The flexural strength of the Ag-Sn irregular particle MRC was significantly influenced by both the filler particle size and filler contents (p < 0.01). It increased when either the filler content increased or the particles size decreased. The highest flexural strength (97.6 MPa) was obtained from the condition of particles size < 20 microns and 94% filler content. The flexural modulus was significantly influenced by filler content and it increased with increasing filler content. The condensability of the Ag-Sn irregular particle MRC was lower than that of amalgam but much higher than presently available conventional composites and spherical particle MRC.
