16
Q

what are coupling agents?

A

methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane

silane interacts and bonds with glass

17
Q

What does high filler content mean?

A

higher surface hardness

18
Q

what does high filler content mean re. volume setting contraction?

A

higher filler the lower % of volume setting contraction

19
Q

The higher filler means what to thermal expansion?

A

higher filler, the less co efficient of thermal expansion

20
Q

what does camphorquinone do re. polymerisation

A

yields necessary free radical to start polymerisation

21
Q

at what level does camphorquinone become excited?

A

40-60 nm- visable blue light

22
Q

What is blue light most readily generated by?

A

quartz halogen lights

23
Q

What is the downside to resin in composite?

A

susceptible to shrinkage upon polymerisation

24
Q

what are resins?

A

modified methacrylate/acrylate

oxirane- ring opening

25
Q

what is the function of the filler>

A

shock absorber

26
Q

What is the function of the coupling agent?

A

transfers stress from loading from rigid riller to more flexible and ductile matrix

27
Q

What are the types of resin composites?

A

conventional- used for posterior/ occlusal restoration
micro filled- anterior
hybrid
nano composites

28
Q

What other properties are there to resin composite?

A

gradual set from outer surface

required incremental cure

29
Q

with increased porosity?

A

less strength

less fatigue

30
Q

with decreased coupling?

A

less strength

less fatigue

31
Q

What is cfactor?

A

measure of bond strength

number of bonded surface/number of unbonded surfaces
