Background: The prevalence of acrylic resin dentures fracture due to accidental drop is relatively high especially when it is being cleaned by patient. The effort to strengthen acrylic resin denture was done by adding Bambusa arundinacea (Retz.) Willd fibers, which was based on previous research. It has been proven that the addition of bamboo fiber to self-cured acrylic resin can increase the tensile strength. It has acceptable tensile properties, relatively low cost, high toughness, and good thermal properties. Purpose: To determine the impact strength of heat-cured acrylic resin after the addition of Bambusa arundinacea (Retz.) Willd. fibers at various lengths and weights. Methods: Bambusa arundinacea (Retz.) Willd. fibers with lengths of 2 mm, 6 mm, 12 mm and weights of 3wt%, 6wt%, 9wt% were added to heat-cured acrylic resin. The impact strength of heat-cured acrylic resin was tested using the Charpy method with mini impact tester KRY type. The test results were calculated using the impact strength formula. The research data were analyzed using one-way anova test and Tukey HSD test. Results: The data analysis showed that there was a significant difference in impact strength of heat-cured acrylic resin after the addition of Bambusa arundinacea (Retz.) Willd fibers. Conclusion: Addition of Bambusa arudinacea (Retz.) Willd. fibers increased the impact strength of heat-cured acrylic resin respective to the increment of length and weight of Bambusa arudinacea (Retz.) Willd. fibers.

Background: One of the materials for denture bases is heat-cured acrylic resin (PMMA). This material still lacks impact strength as a mechanical strength property. The addition of reinforcing material is known to increase the mechanical strength of PMMA. One of the reinforcing materials added to PMMA is nano cellulose from rice husks, one of the wastes from agricultural products. Purpose: This study aims to determine rice husk nano cellulose's addition to the PMMA denture base's impact strength. Method:  The research sample consisted of six groups, each group consisting of 8 samples selected by simple random. The PI, P2, P3, P4, P5, and K groups were PMMA with 1%, 2%, 3%, 4%, 5% nano cellulose, and without nano cellulose. Result: Mean impact strength test results were 41.50 x 10-3 ± 3.891 J / mm2 for P1, 44.13 x 10-3 ± 3,980 J / mm2 for P2, 45.63 x 10-3 ± 4,438 J / mm2 for P3, 46.87 x 10-3 ± 4,824 J / mm2 for P4, 49.12 x 10-3 ± 4.016 J / mm2 for P5 and 36.25 x 10-3 ± 1.982 J / mm2 for K. One way Anova test results with p-value of 0.000 indicates differences in the six groups (p<0.05). Conclusion: This study concludes that the impact strength value of PMMA with the addition of rice husk nano cellulose has increased compared to the control group without the addition of rice husk nano cellulose.

Non-dental glass fiber is one of the materials that can be used to increase the impact strength of a acrylic resin base plate, containing a similar composition to that of dental e-glass fiber. Orientation and positions of fiber affect the reinforcement effectiveness. This research aimed to examine the effect of the orientation of non-dental glass fiber in the compression position on the impact strength of an acrylic resin base plate. The research was conducted on 16 acrylic resin plates with fiber (65 mm x 10 mm x 2.5 mm) addition. The samples were divided into 4 groups (combination of different woven orientation unidirectional, bidirectional woven in the compression position, and control). The material used in this study was heat-cured acrylic resin QC-20 brand, non-dental glass fiber (without any brand). Impact strength was tested using an impact testing machine. The data obtained were analyzed using one-way ANOVA test and LSD (p<0.05). In this research the impact strength of the base plate with the addition of fiber increased 8.54 ± 2.21; 13.21 ± 2.34; 16.81 ± 2.80 kJ/m2 compared to that of the control group, i.e. 4.98 ± 1.05 kJ/m2. One-way ANOVA test showed a significant effect (p<0.05) of the fiber orientation variations on the compression position. This research concluded that the addition of nondental e-glass fiber (composed of SiO252.56-56.88%), diameter 17.12–20.03 µm) in the compression zone increases theimpact strength of acrylic resin base plate. Fibers with unidirectional orientationprovides the highest increase in the impact strength of acrylic resin base plate.

Introduction: Acrylic resin is the most common material for the denture base because the acrylic resin has good esthetics, ease of processing, reparability, and inexpensive. A disadvantage of acrylic resin is that it is easy to be cracked. One of the ways to resolve this problem is by adding agave sisalana fiber and E-glass fiber. The purpose of this study was to find out the effect of the addition of agave sisalana fiber and E-glass fiber on the impact strength of an acrylic resin denture plate reparation. Material and Method: The experiment involved twenty-seven plates of heat-cured acrylic with the dimensions of 55x 10 x 10 mm with the 26 x 5 x 4 mm for the cavity to measure, each measurement divided into three groups, with nine samples for each group. The first group was a control group (without fiber), the second group was a group with agave sisalana fiber addition, the third group was a group with e-glass fiber addition. All plates were soaked in distillation water for one day at 37o C. Plates were tested for impact strength using the Charpy method. All data obtained were analyzed with one-way ANOVA followed by LSD (Least Significant Difference) with p<0,05. Result and Discussion: The result showed that the influences of impact strength between without fiber with agave sisalana fiber and E-glass fiber addition on acrylic denture reparation. Acrylic denture reparation in both fibers with concentration 3,3%, agave sisalana fiber has the highest impact strength rather than e-glass fiber. Conclusion: The conclusion of this study is that there is an increase in impact strength with agave sisalana fiber and E-glass fiber addition on acrylic denture reparation and agave sisalana fiber has the highest impact strength.

Background: The criteria of conventional curing of polymethyl methacrylate do not match the standard properties of the denture base materials. Objectives: This research was conducted to investigate the addition of TiO2 nano practical on impact strength, thermal conductivity and color stability of acrylic resin cured by microwave in comparison to the conventional cured of heat-polymerized acrylic resin. Materials and Methods: 120 specimens made of high impact acrylic resin were divided into two main groups according to the type of curing (water bath, microwave), then each group was subdivided into two groups according to the addition of 3% TiO2 nano-fillers and control group (without the addition of TiO2 0%). Each group was subdivided according to the type of test into 3 groups with 10 specimens for each group. Data were statistically analyzed using Student t-test to detect the significant differences between tested and control groups at significance level (P<0.05). Results: According to curing type methods, the results showed that there was a significant decrease in impact strength of microwaved cured resin, but there was no significant difference in the thermal conductivity and color stability of resin. In addition, by using nanofiller, there was a significant increase in the impact strength and color stability with the addition of 3% TiO2 nanofillers, but no significant difference was found in the thermal conductivity of the acrylic resin. Conclusion: The microwave curing of acrylic resin had no change in the color stability and thermal conductivity in comparison to the water bath, but the impact strength was decreased. The addition of 3% TiO2 improved the impact and the color stability, but the thermal conductivity did not change.

This study determined and compared the influences of various processing techniques including air circulating oven (ACO), dry heat oven (DHO) and water bath (WB) on the impact strength (IS) and microhardness (HV) of the conventional heat cure acrylic resin (CHCAR) and rubber reinforced heat cure acrylic resin (RRHCAR). Samples were fabricated using CHCAR (control Group A; n=114) and RRHCAR (experimental Group B; n=114). Group A and B were further divided into subgroups according to processing techniques: ACO, DHO and WB (n=38 each) for both testing variables microhardness and impact strength (n=19 each). Charpy testing machine and Vickers microhardness tester were utilized. Analysis of variance was applied to determine the presence of significant differences among processing techniques while P-value ≤ 0.05 was considered as significant. Water bath (P-value [0.001) and DHO technique (p-value [0.001) showed significant differences between both groups� impact strength and microhardness. Microhardness of group A and B showed a significant difference (p-value 0.002) when processed by ACO. Impact strength and micro hardness were improved in RRHCAR compared to CHCAR processed by ACO and DHO in comparison to WB technique. Rubber reinforced heat cure acrylic resin revealed improvement in the impact strength and microhardness. The air circulating oven exhibited highest microhardness in both testing materials. Dry heat oven showed improved values of impact strength in conventional heat cure acrylic resin.

The aim: This study evaluates the effect of adding silanized halloysite nanotubes to the polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) resin on its hardness, impact strength, transverse strength. Materials and methods: Three groups of acrylic resin were prepared, one group without HNTs, was used as a control group (A). The other two groups contained 0.3% (B), 0.6% wt of silanized halloysite nanotubes (C). For each one, hardness, impact strength and transverse strength were measured. One-way ANOVA and Tukey’s test were used for comparison. Results: Regarding to the impact test, there was no significant difference between 0.3% concentration and the pure (control) group while 0.6% concentration had significant decrease compared to the pure group and so between the 0.3% group 0.6% group. For the hardness test, the 0.3% group had no significant difference with the pure group and a significant difference between group 0.6% group and the pure group while there was a no significant decrease between the 0.3% and 0.6% group with the higher hardness mean in the 0.3% compared to 0.6% group. For the transverse strength, both 0.3% wt concentration and 0.6% concentration showed significant difference compared to the pure group and also between each other with the lowest impact strength in 0.6% group followed by 0.3% group with the highest transverse strength in the pure group. Conclusions: The silanation of halloysite nanotubes reduces the mechanical properties of the heat-cured acrylic denture base material. The more concentration of silanazed halloysite nanotubes is added, the more weakening occurs in the acrylic material relating to the hardness, transverse strength and impact strength.

Pragmatic markers, either primary or secondary, contribute to the specificity of languages and are sensitive on being translated. This study traces the use of well, the commonest pragmatic marker in the English discourse, in a corpus of translated Arabic novels. The study, too, addresses the influence of the translators&rsquo; phonological awareness on their word choices, in the same corpus. Adjacent consonants, consonant-starting and quarter-syllabic words are studied in four groups: free writing of native authors as a control group (G1), literary translations by native English translators (G2), literary English translations by Arabic translators (G3) as well as literary English translations by joint effort (native-speaking and non-native-speaking translators) [G4]. The findings are statistically compared using one-way ANOVA test. Results show a statistically significant difference in the use of the pragmatic marker well and in the use of the three phonological patterns among the four groups. The findings are interpreted and implications are offered for the pragmatic gap and linguistic competence between native-speaking and non-native-speaking translators.

Impact strength data is a noteworthy factor for designing airport pavements, civilian and military structures etc and it is ought to be modelled precisely. In order to achieve an appropriate modelling data, it is important to select a suitable estimation method. One such commonly used statistical tool is the two parameter Weibull distribution for modelling impact failure strength accurately besides the variations in test results. This study statistically commandsthe variations in the impact failure strength (number of blows to induce failure) of fibre reinforced concrete (FRC) subjected to drop hammer test. Subsequently, a four-different novel method for the computation of Weibull parameter (Shape parameter) based on the earlier researchers test results has been proposed. The accuracy of the proposed four novel method is demonstrated by comparing with power density method and verified with goodness of fit test. Finally, the impact failure strength of FRC is offered in terms of reliability. The proposed four NEPFM is very suitable and efficient to compute the shape parameter in impact failure strength applications.
