TEGDMA (with 0.5 wt% DMAEMA) | TEGDMA (no DMAEMA) | Non-ordered Composite (with 0.5 wt% DMAEMA) | Ordered Composite (no DMAEMA) | |
---|---|---|---|---|
Modulus (GPa) | 1.91 (0.11) | 1.88 (0.24) | 4.92 (0.30) | 4.49 (0.48) |
Failure Strain (%) | 29 (2.9) | 29 (4.7) | 8.3 (1.2) | 14.2 (2.5) |
Compressive Strength (MPa) | 198.9 (26.7) | 220.7 (56.3) | 165.4 (21.2) | 192.1 (17.2) |
Toughness* (J/m3 × 107) | 3.12 (0.65) | 3.05 (0.86) | 0.77 (0.31) | 1.81 (0.48) |
Toughness was calculated as the integrated area under the stress-strain curve[19].
