OBJECTIVESFiber-reinforced composites (FRC) with different polymer matrix compositions are available on the market. The aim of this study was to compare the degree of monomer conversion of FRC that contained either dimethacrylate resin matrix or semi-IPN resin matrix. In addition, the effect of different types of light-curing units and durations of light irradiation on the degree of conversion was evaluated.MATERIALS AND METHODSContinuous unidirectional fibers impregnated with dimethacrylate or semi-IPN resin were compared. As control materials, a particulate filler composite resin and an unfilled resin were used. The materials were photopolymerized using various irradiation times and different types of light-curing units (quartz–tungsten–halogen with standard or turbo tip, light-emitting diode and plasma-arc). Degree of monomer conversion (DC%) was determined by FT-IR spectrometry. The infrared spectra were recorded at seven different time points after polymerization.RESULTSANOVA showed significant differences between the materials tested, and the curing units (P<0.05). The DC% of semi-IPN and dimethacrylate matrix FRC was not statistically different (P>0.05) compared to that of unfilled resin. Conventional quartz–tungsten halogen with turbo tip showed the highest DC% (69–72.3%), whereas the plasma-arc curing unit showed the lowest degree of conversion (47–62%).SIGNIFICANCEWithin the limitations of this study, it can be concluded that semi-IPN matrix of FRC did not show a difference in the degree of conversion compared to dimethacrylate resin FRC when quartz–tungsten or a light-emitting diode polymerization unit was used. The plasma-arc light-curing unit showed a lower degree of conversion with all materials compared to the light-emitting diode and quartz–tungsten–halogen lamps.
