Effect of Time Passage on Some Physical Properties of Silicone Maxillofacial Elastomers
Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2011 Changes in color and other physical properties of silicone facial prosthesis are the main reasons for its replacement. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of time passage on some physical properties such as tensile strength, modulus of elasticity, elongation at break, tear strength, hardness, color stability, and contrast ratio (CR)
