ABSTRACT
Water may influence the mechanical properties of the acrylic resins. Thus, the effect of water storage on the impact strength (IS) of one denture base (Lucitone 550 - L) and four reline resins (Tokuyama Rebase II - T; UfiGel Hard - U; Kooliner - K; New Truliner - NT) was evaluated. Bars of L were made (60 x 6 x 2 mm) and relined (2 mm) with T, U, K, NT and L. Intact specimens of each material (60 x 6 x 4 mm) were also fabricated for comparative purposes. Specimens were submitted to Charpy impact tests without water storage (control) and after immersion in water for 7, 90 and 180 days. Data (kJ/m²) analyzed by two-way ANOVA and Tukey's test (p=0.05) revealed that after 90 days, U exhibited an increase in the IS (0.93) compared to 7 days (0.58). K (1.48) and L/K (7.21) exhibited a decrease at the 7-day period (1.01 and 3.23, respectively). NT (0.60) showed an increase in the IS after 180 days (1.52), whereas L/NT (7.70) showed a decrease (3.17). Water immersion improved the IS of U and NT, and decreased the IS of K, L/K, and L/NT. Water may affect differently the IS of acrylic resins and, consequently, the resistance to fracture of relined denture bases.
RESUMO
A água pode influenciar as propriedades mecânicas das resinas acrílicas. Assim, o efeito do armazenamento em água na resistência ao impacto (RI) de uma resina para base de prótese (Lucitone 550-L) e quatro materiais reembasadores (Tokuyama Rebase II-T; UfiGel Hard-U; Kooliner-K; New Truliner-NT) foi avaliado. Barras da resina L foram confeccionadas (60 x 6 x 2 mm) e reembasadas (2 mm) com T, U, K, NT e L. Amostras não reembasadas de cada material também foram confeccionadas (60 x 6 x 4 mm) para fins comparativos. As amostras foram submetidas aos testes de impacto tipo Charpy sem armazenamento (controle) e após imersão em água por 7, 90 e 180 dias. Os resultados (kJ/m²) analisados por meio de ANOVA dois fatores e teste de Tukey (p=0,05) revelaram que, após 90 dias, U exibiu aumento na RI (0,93) comparado com 7 dias (0,58). K (1,48) e L/K (7,21) exibiram diminuição no período de 7 dias (1,01 e 3,23, respectivamente). NT (0,60) apresentou aumento na RI após 180 dias (1,52), enquanto L/NT (7,70) apresentou redução (3,17). A imersão em água melhorou a RI de U e NT e diminuiu a RI de K, L/K, e L/NT. A água pode afetar de maneira diversa a RI das resinas acrílicas e, consequentemente, a resistência à fratura das bases de próteses reembasadas.
