This study investigated the effect of rinsing alginate impressions using acidic electrolyzed water on the dimensional change and deformation of stone models.
Two brands of alginate impression materials were used. The impressions were rinsed using tap water or acidic electrolyzed water with a pH of 2.3, an oxidation-reduction potential of 1, 230mV, and a residual chlorine concentration of 45.0ppm for 30sec or 3min. The sectional profiles of the stone models obtained from them were measured using a threedimensional coordinate measuring system.
For the same rinsing time, there was no significant difference in dimensional change between the two types of rinsing water. The change in shape from the master die was approximately the same for the stone models obtained from rinsed impressions using either water. The results suggest that the use of acidic electrolyzed water rather than tap water for rinsing is an acceptable treatment for alginate impressions.
