    Disinfection and effects on the materials of dental gloves were investigated when two kinds of latex and one kind of plastic glove were immersed in two types of functional water or invert soap. Disinfection was confirmed by immersing the gloves in functional waters or invert soap for 30 seconds. The surfaces of dental gloves immersed in functional water or invert soap were examined with a scanning electron microscope. As the time that gloves were immersed increased, the change in the surface also increased. Changes in the surface of latex gloves were markedly observed by immersion in AQUA acid water. Tensile stress and tensile elongation did not change following on immersion. Therefore, pin-holes were not confirmed in the gloves.

    The effects of additives in reversible (agar) impression materials and gypsums on the compatibility of both materials were investigated. Based on a pure 9% agar material, six types of agar impression materials including ones that contained no additive, 0.5% benzalkonium chloride, 0.3% potassium sulfate, 0.5% starch, 0.1% borax and 0.3% potassium sulfate +borax were respectively prepared. Pure gypsum was mixed with distilled water or solutions of 0.3% potassium sulfate and 0.3% potassium sulfate +0.01% sodium citrate. The surface roughness of stone models obtained from the agar and agar/alginate combined impressions was measured. As a result, borax in agar was the main cause of the incompatibility of agar impression with gypsum. The addition of potassium sulfate with borax improved the incompatibility of both impressions with gypsums mixed with any solution.

    The effects of immersion disinfection of both hydrophobic and hydrophilic vinyl silicone impressions taken with individual resin trays on the reproducibility of stone models were investigated. Impressions were immersed in solutions of either 2% glutaraldehyde for 30 minutes and 24 hours or l% sodium hypochrolite for 15 minutes and 24 hours. Hydrophobic vinyl silicone impressions taken with individual resin trays did not affect the reproducibility of stone models by the immersion disinfection, and proved to be stable following long-term immersion. On the other hand, the immersion disinfection of hydrophilic vinyl silicone impressions taken with the individual resin trays caused dimensional change of stone models following short-term immersion. The findings indicated that immersion disinfection of hydrophilic vinyl silicone impressions should be monitored.

    To improve the compatibility of reversible hydrocolloid (agar) or agar/alginate combined impressions with dental stones, the surfaces of impressions were fixed with 5% solutions of weak acids (acetic, lactic, citric, tartaric, phosphoric and oxalic acid) for 30 seconds. Surface roughness and hardness of the stone models obtained from the control or fixed impressions were measured. The stone surfaces were also observed with a scanning electron microscope (SEM). Weak acids, except citric, effectively improved the compatibility of agar impression materials with dental stones. The fixing of agar or combined impressions with the phosphoric acid solution is recomended.

    A non-phosphate bonded investment including quartz capsuled with stabilized zirconia was developed for casting titanium. The mechanical properties of castings were compared between the experimental investment and a commercially available phosphate-bonded silica investment. The tensile strength values were almost the same for both castings, while the elongation was higher than that of castings from the commercial investment. Although the inner hardness was almost the same for both castings, the hardness in the surface layer was lower. The reaction layer of the casting was clearly thinner. These results suggested that the capsulizing zirconia significantly reduced the reaction of molten titanium with silica, which improved the quality of titanium casting.

    To improve the properties of dental resin, three kinds of urethane dimethacrylates (UDMA) with different atomic groups and different numbers of single bonds between the vinyl groups, were synthesized. The effects of the types of atomic group of the skeleton in the UDMA molecule on the properties of its polymer were investigated. Our finding showed that the physical and mechanical properties of the polymer were strongly dependent on the number of single bonds between the vinyl groups located at both the terminal end and the atomic group of the skeleton in the UDMA molecule. Thus, the addition of UDMA comprised of the cyclohexane to TEGDMA increased the elastic modulus and the Knoop hardness. Furthermore, the addition of UDMA containing the ethyleneglycol to TEGDMA increased the deflection, and decreased the flexural strength.
