Aim And Objectives: To characterize and analyze the structural presentation of a new denture base copolymer with a spiro-acetal cross-linker at 10 and 20 wt.% concentrations by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and field emission scanning electron microscopy-energy-dispersive X-ray (FESEM-EDX) spectroscopies. Also, to evaluate the glass transition temperature (T) of the new copolymer.

Aim: This study aimed to synthesize and characterize a novel -GMA analog, termed P--GMA, through structural modification by replacing hydroxyl (-OH) groups with phosphonooxy [-O-P(=O)(OH)] groups and to evaluate and compare its viscosity with -GMA.

Materials And Methods: -GMA, triethylamine, dichloromethane, and phosphoryl chloride were utilized for the synthesis of P--GMA through phosphorylation. Fourier discerned the chemical structure of the synthesized P--GMA transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and its viscosity was assessed by rheometry in oscillatory shear mode over a frequency sweep range of 0.

Aim: To formulate and characterize the chemical structure of a new dental composite with photodimerized cinnamyl methacrylate (PD-CMA) photo-crosslinking comonomer and to evaluate the monomer-to-polymer conversion (MPC) and glass transition temperature () of the new composite copolymers.

Materials And Methods: CMA was PD by ultraviolet C-type (UVC) irradiation. The research groups were a control group C0 without PD-CMA and two trial groups: E10 (10 wt.
