DESCRIPTION
This my viva presentation on final year project.TRANSCRIPT
Glass polyalkenoate cements (GPCs)
are important material for the modern
clinical dentistry
Advantages:
-chemically bond to the apatite mineral
of teeth
-avoid secondary carries
- inherently good adhesion
- have potential to replace amalgam
Limitation
-brittleness
-poor inferior fracture toughness and
wear resistance
Due to limitation of GPCs, this study lead to set of
fundamental to investigate alternative in the way
to optimize the application of GPCs in term of
Focused on the optimization of GPCs in term of:
-Compressive strength
-Setting reaction
Objectives
1. To follow the setting reaction of GPCs
2. To study influence of MMT on compressive strength of GPC
3. To investigate the influence of Na on the setting reaction of cement
GPCs composed of glass powder alumino-silicate and aqueous solution of polyacrylic acid.
Formation: acid degrade network structure of glass and releasing metal cations (Ca2+, Na+, or Al3+) [1].

The COO− groups and the released Al3+ and Ca2+ ions enables cross linking of these chains, giving a solid network
around the glass particles. The binding of the COO− groups
with Ca2+ ions from the enamel occur and form a chemical
bond between the cement and the tooth structure [3].
Reaction involved is acid-base reaction where glass being a
base , accepts protons from acid even though it is not soluble
in water. The number and type of anions and cations
released from the glass particle will determine the extent of
cross linking in polysalt matrix [4].

Setting reaction of GPC
- The primary step is hardening step after glass and aqueouspolyacid mix each other about 3-5 minutes.
-Through FTIR study, Crisp and Wilson [5] assigned that acalcium salt was formed leading to gelation at initial step.
- The secondary mechanism is post-hardening steps. This stepis involves the formation aluminum salt species and contributeto the improvement of mechanical properties that measuredrelative with time
Composition of glass influence setting reaction of GPCs
- Al in the glass structure is important to create negative sites tobe attacked by polyacid.
- Na result the cementlikely to have disportionate influence onits properties [1]

FTIR technique used : to determine setting reaction by
assigning particular peaks that develop due to acid-base reaction.
- the absorption of original glass powder is totally different with glasses
that have been produced.
Compressive strength increase with the addition of MMT.
- ADA-MMT addition increase the mean compressive of GPCs [6]

increased the compressive value
property of MMT : able to act as filler by intercalation reaction and fill in the
layer within GPCs.
The hydrogen bond that formed between acid and MMT layer also may
influence the increase of strength of the GPCs.
According to Drowling et al. (2006), the formation of hydrogen bond
occurred between carboxylic acid group and amine group of ADA-MMT
have a greater reinforcing effect on the mechanical properties of the
material system to which they have been added.
The amount of MMT used that is 2.5 wt% also suitable for both glasses in
cements formation. Drowling et al. (2006) highlighted that MMT addition with
excess of 2.5 wt% cause in difficulty to mix with the glass.
4.4 mole% of Na2O might cause the differences interaction in the LG66 cements.
When comparing the trends of compressive strength for both cements, it was found that LG3 cements showed rapid increase within 14 days. After 14 days, the compressive strength became slightly lower.
For LG66 cements, the compressive strength continually increases even after 28 days.
It shows that the setting reaction of LG3 cements were faster than LG66 cements. This situation most likely related to the alkali metal anions leaching process.
Na+ in LG66 ions have tendency to slower the setting reaction by competes calcium and Ca2+ and Al3+ to bind with carboxylate group of PAA.
At initial aging time, Na+ may disrupt the crosslinking . However, this situation only temporary and take place at early stage of reaction. Na+ has mobile properties to move freely and will leave the carboxylate group [7] (Akinmade and Hill, 1991). Therefore, after Na+ released from carboxylategroup, Ca2+ and Al3+ will replace to form crosslink.
Similar finding was obtained by De Barra and Hill (1998). In their study, they found that the influence of Na+ content glasses give significant reduction in compressive strength at early stage of reaction and became considerably reduced as aging time increase.

For original glass, there was only one absorption peak between 1050 – 980 cm-
1.
After 5 minutes aging time, two new peaks already developed
1)1710 – 1390 cm-1: formation of COO-M+
2) 900 cm-1 : hydrated silica gel (Si-OH).
The change of absorption pattern between 1200 – 900 cm-1 were related to the evaluation of band as cement formed.
The stretching vibration observed at 1650 cm-1 due to the binding vibration water that appeared after the leaching (Davis and Tomozawa, 1996). Peak at region 3700 to 2400 cm-1 came from O-H stretch.
For original glass, there was only one
absorption peak between 1050 – 980
cm-1.
Generally, the absorption peaks of
LG66 cements were similar with LG3
cements.
Two new peaks developed after 5
minutes set of cements.
1) 1710 – 1400 cm-1 : COO-M+
2) 900 : hydrated silica gel (Si-OH).
The change of absorption pattern
observed between 1200 – 900 cm-1
and the stretching vibration at 1650
cm-1 were also same with LG3
cements. Peak at region 3700 to
2400 cm-1 came from O-H stretch.
• As time elapsed, the shoulder peaks at 1570 cm-1 and 1550 cm-1
increase in intensity (Figure 8 & 9) due to formation COO-M+ as metalions (Al3+ and Ca2+) crosslink with the carboxyl group in the acid [9].
• In contrast, the intensity of shoulder peak at 1710 cm-1 decreases inintensity due to uptake of H+ from acid by silica network to form silicagel layer during the cross linking of metal ions and COO- in cementsformation.
• Setting reaction of LG66 cement is slower than LG3 cement. Na+ inLG66 cement have tendency to compete with Al3+ and Ca2+ anddelay the crosslinking process [1].

LG66 cement: peak of COO-M+ is
weak - delay reaction of cross
linking due to the presence of
sodium.
This is also the main reason why
the working time in this stage is
too slow and GPCs formed have
low compressive strength.
shoulder peak Si-O(Si) stretch is
also still very weak. The setting
reaction of LG66 cement
seemed slower than LG3
cement.
Sodium ions have tendency to
compete with other ion like
calcium and aluminium cations
and may inhibit the crosslinking
process.

A slight difference between spectrum at 920 cm-1 that corresponded to hydratedsilica gel.
With addition of MMT, this peak is seemed hardly to observe.
The intensity of this peak was very small compared with glass without MMT. This mayhave been because of hardening reaction that took place.
Cements with MMT easily to form hard surface and less working time compare thancements without MMT.

The compressive strength for both GPCs were improved with the
addition of MMT.
LG3 cement achieved 74 Mpa (with MMT) and 53 Mpa (without
MMT).
LG66 cement achieved 66 MPa (with MMT) and 53.24 Mpa (without
MMT).
It proves that MMT able to act as filler by intercalation reaction
within GPCs. The formation of hydrogen bonding also provides the
great effect on the compressive strength.
For both GPCs, the peak at1700 cm-1 (COOH) decreased in
intensity.
While peak at1540 cm-1 (COO-M+ ) peak increased in intensity.
The peak at 900cm-1 corresponded silica gel (Si-OH).
Setting reaction of GPCs from LG3 glass was faster than GPCs
from LG66 glass.
