Description

This study was undergone to find the cause of crack growth of denture-based heat cured resin. By measuring the crack growth of precracked specimens in the three point bending constant load test, the effects of environmental solutions(ethanol, acetic acid, lactic acid, citric acid, acetone, NaCl, ascorbic acid and distilled water)and their concentrations were investigated. The results suggested that these solutions, in addition to stress would participate in the crack growth of the denture base. Considering that both ethanol and acetic acid had especially great effects, it was determined that alcoholic drinks and dishes with vinegar promote crack growth. Furthermore, the crack growth rate reduced with time in other environmental solutions because the stress was dispersed by many microcracks formed around the main crack. It was considered that these cracks would from new starting points for crack growth with increasing load.
