Abstract
Purpose. Comparative analysis of the strength of hybrid restoration composites of light polymerization during their local loading using the phenomenon of acoustic emission. The following restoration composites were studied: Latelux, Tetric N-Ceram, Charisma Classic. Results. It was determined that the nature of the destruction of all composites is the same: elastic-plastic at the initial stage of the load with a transition to brittle as its further growth. Three types of composite failure are observed: correct, incorrect and mixed. The first predominated during fracture under the action of local loading of the Latelux composite, for Tetric N-Ceram and Charisma Classic materials a mixed type of fracture is characteristic. Conclusions. Analysis of the parameters of the AE signals showed that the signals had the highest amplitude and energy when the Tetric N-Ceram composite was destroyed, and the lowest – Latelux. All dental composites are dominated by high-energy ductile-brittle and brittle fracture, which indicates the spread of micro- and macrocracks of various sizes in materials. Key words: polymer composites, strength, acoustic emission method.
