  • DENTAL COMPOSITION COMPRISING A POLYMERIZATION SHRINKAGE MEDIATOR
    Publication number: 20260207440
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a dental composition comprising at least one polymerization shrinkage mediator. More particularly, the present invention relates to a dental composition comprising at least one polymerizable monomer, at least one polymerization initiator and at least one polymerization shrinkage mediator, wherein the at least one polymerization shrinkage mediator is ethyl 2-phenylacrylate. The present invention also relates to a dental composition comprising the phenylacrylate in a high purity. The dental composition is for production of a dental restoration material, a dental adhesive, a dental cement, a post and core material, an endo-crown material or a pontic in fixed partial dentures. The dental composition is for medical applications.
