Abstract

The glass-transition temperature of a range of acrylic resin materials used in prosthetic dentistry was determined. The techniques used to make the measurement included: thermal mechanical analysis, dynamic mechanical thermal analysis, and differential scanning calorimetry. It was found that the measuring techniques used yielded very similar results, and as a consequence it was concluded that: familiarity and easy availability of thermal mechanical analysis lead to the recommendation that this technique should be employed as the standard glass-transition evaluation technique for denture-base acrylic resins.
