Details of lab processed indirect fiber composites

Name Composition Types / architecture Processing method
Vectris Launched in 1996 by Ivoclar Matrix- BisGMA and TEGDMA(24-39 Wt %) decandioldimethacrylate UDMA - 0.3&0.1wt%. preimpregnated E &R glass - 60Wt% for pontic and around 45-50% for the other materials. Frame, Single, and Pontic. Single and Frame are glass-fibre woven E fibers.(Mesh) VectrisPontic unidirectional R glass-fibres (Unidirectional) Initial polymerization -1 min with light curing unit
final polymerization -light and heat curing unit (Targis power) for 25 minutes.
FiberKor (Jeneric/Pentron) S-glass fibers(60%) in 100% bis-GMA matrix FibreKor 2K strips contain 2,000 individual fibers, FibreKor4K strips contain 4,000 fibres and FibreKor 16K strips contain 16,000 fibres. (Unidirectional) Initial polymerization -light cuirng unit (alpha lightI)for 1minute followed by light-heat curing for 15 minute in(alpha lightII) 45
EverStick net (Stick tech Ltd) E-glass fibers impregnated with PMMA. Mesh type glass fibers The wetting of fibers is done with stick resin and polymerization as for fiberKor.
