Polymerisation shrinkage is widely recognised as a major drawback of resin based dental restoratives. Bis-GMA is often employed as the principal dimethacrylate monomer. Due to its high viscosity, Bis-GMA is normally mixed with large proportions of low viscosity glycol dimethacrylates.

A series of different methacrylate monomers (with either 1 or 2.5% dimethyl-p-toluidine, DMPT) was gelled with poly(ethyl methacrylate) powder (containing benzoyl peroxide) thus forming a room temperature curing system. When doped with 5.625% chlorhexidine diacetate the release from the tetrahydrofurfuryl

Novel elastomer/methacrylate systems have been developed for potential soft prosthetic applications. Mixtures of varying compositions of an isoprene-styrene copolymer elastomer and tetrahydrofurfuryl methacrylate (SIS/THFMA) formed one-gel systems and were heat cured with a peroxide initiator. The blends were characterised in

A polymer system consisting of poly(ethyl methacrylate)/tetrahydrofurfuryl methacrylate (PEMA/THFMA) was investigated as a biomaterial for cartilage repair using chondrocyte culture. The PEMA/THFMA system and Thermanox control were shown to support chondrocytes seeded directly onto the surface for up to 28

This study investigates the physical properties of a range of dental resins containing up to 30% by weight of tetrahydrofurfuryl methacrylate (THFMA). The principal monomer was 2,2-bis-(4(2-hydroxy-3-methacryloyloxypropoxy)-phenyl)-propane (bis-GMA) or 1,6-bis-(methacryloxy-2-ethoxycarbony lamino)-2,4,4-trimethyl-hexane (UDMA). Heat-cured resins were tested for Young's modulus, flexural
