Acrylic resin is a well-known material that has been used for a long time in the medical field. It most commonly comes in liquid-powder form, where the powder is a polymer and the liquid is a monomer. The “ortho” resin is made of polymethyl methacrylate
The commercial form of polymethyl methacrylate is Plexiglas. Its mechanical properties are good: Knoop hardness between 18 and 20, tensile strength of around 60 Mpa, modulus of elasticity of 2.4 Gpa. The acrylic resin used in ODF is said to be fast thermopolymerizable.
The stability of the color and the mechanical properties of the devices depends on the degree of conversion of the polymers. A recent study shows that post-curing with heat appears to improve the properties of Acrylic Resin
