COMPARISON OF DIAMETRAL TENSILE, FLEXURAL, AND COMPRESSIVE STRENGTHS OF FIVE CORE BUILD-UP MATERIALS

Abstract

The purpose of this laboratory investigation was to evaluate three mechanical properties; the compressive, diametral tensile and flexural strengths of five different core build-up materials. In this study, a light-actived Hybrid composite resin (President), resin modified glass ionomer (RMGIC) (Vitremer), amalgam (Cavex avalloy), glass-ionomer (GIC) (Logofil) and compomer (Dyract AP) restorative materials were used. 120 samples were prepared according to American Dental Association specification No. 27 for testing diametral tensile strength (DTS), compressive strength (CS) and flexural strength (FS). Forty specimens were prepared in cylindric molds (6 mm in height, 3 mm in diameter) for the CS measurements and forty specimens (3
mm in height, 6 mm in diameter) for diametral tensile strength (DTS). Forty specimens were prepared (25X 2 X 2 mm) for the FS measurements. All cores materials were prepared according to manufacturer’s instruction at a temperature of 23.0 +/- 1.0 degrees C. Haunsfield press and pull machine was used for compressive and flexural strength and the module were determined at a crosshead speed of 0.5 mm/min. Diametral testing was carried out at 1 mm/min. Analysis of variance was used for statistically evaluation. Mean compressive, diametral tensile and flexural strengths with associated standard deviations were calculated for each material. The results of this study indicated that the diametral tensile strength, flexural strength and compressive strength of the resin composite (President) and amalgam material were significantly higher than the other tested materials (p<0.001). On the other hand, the diametral tensile strength, flexural strength and compressive strength of glass ionomer based materials (Logofil, Vitremer) were statistically lower than for resin composites, compomer and amalgam.
