Table 3.

A comparison of functional group conversions obtained after 4 min reaction time from FTIR (X), flexural modulus (E), flexural strength (σ), flexural toughness (G_c), and energy required to strain 11% (G_c’) measured from three-point bend test in Fig. 5 between bulk photo-CuAAC polymer denoted as BZ-AZ and dimethacrylate-based polymer denoted as BisGMA/TEGDMA. The letters indicate statistically significant differences (p<0.05) via a one-way ANOVA and a Tukey's test.
