Sažetak
A cross-linking agent, ethylene glycol dimethacrylate, which is added to poly (methyl methacrylate) (VMMA) denture base resins to improve crazing resistance, has little effect on the mechanical properties o f the resultant denture base. A poly functional cross-linking agent, butadiene acrylate (BDA), has been considered to have a greater cross-linking efficiency and thus altering the mechanical properties. The purpose o f this study was to investigate the effect o f BDA on the impact strength o f a PMMA specimens containing 0%, 1%, 4% and 12% BDA o f monomer volume which had been produced by a conventional dental dough-moulded technique as determined. Mean impact strengths were 1.789 KJ/m2 (SD 0.254), 1.720 KJ/m2 (SD 0.273); 1.715 KJ/m2 (SD 0.280) and 1.838 KJ/m2 (SD 0.244), respectively. These differences were not significant (p >0.05) as tested by the analysis o f variance. It was concluded that the cross-linking agent BDA did not affect the impact strength of the PMMA resin specimens.
