Abstract

Acrylic resin is widely used in dental practice. However, the residual monomer in acrylic resin could act as a negative biocompatability on human body. The aim of this study was to evaluate the amount of the monomer elution from polymerized orthodontic acrylic resin. Orthodontic acrylic resin was used in the study. The curing condition of the resin was controlled by temperature, pressure, aquatic and atmospheric environment. The duration and amount of monomer elution and timedependent plot was recorded by high performance liquid chromatography. The result showed that the only monomer eluted from the resin was methyl methacrylic acid. And the amount of the monomer elution has diminished considerably by time progress especially within 24 hours. Furthermore, elution of the residual monomer was significantly lower in group of pressure, moisture and elevated temperature than control (p<.05). According to this study, it was thought that the elution of residual monomer might be influenced by curing environment.

치과 임상에서는 여러 목적으로 Polymethyl methacrylate를 주성분으로 한 아크릴릭 레진이 사용되고 있으며, 특히 가철성 교정장치는 대부분 이것을 사용한다. 그러나 아크릴릭 레진은 중합이 완벽하게 이루어지지 않을 경우 인체에 악영향을 줄 수 있는 미반응 모노머가 레진에 잔존할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 다양한 방법(온도, 압력, 수중 혹은 공기 중)으로 중합 조건과 시간을 달리 하여 교정용 아크릴릭 레진에서 발생하는 미반응 모노머의 용리량을 고성능 액체 크로마토그래피를 이용하여 정성 및 정량분석 하고자 하였다. 연구 결과, 모든 군에서 MMA를 제외한 다른 모노머는 용리되지 않았으며, 중합 방법에 따른 모든 실험군에서 미반응 모노머의 용리는 유의하게 감소하였고(P<0.05) 중합 방법을 한 가지만 사용하였을 때보다 2가지 이상 복합적으로 변화시켰을 때 모노머의 용리량이 더 감소함을 알 수 있었다. 또한 시간경과에 따라 모노머의 용리량이 유의하게 감소하여, 특히 1일 후 부터 급격한 감소를 보였다. 이상의 결과를 보아 중합 방법을 달리하였을 때 모노머의 용리량을 더 많이 감소시키고, 다른 중합 조건들도 복합적으로 사용하는 것이 용리량을 더 효과적으로 줄일 수 있을 것으로 생각된다. 그리고 중합 과정에서 온도, 수분, 압력의 조건을 강화하여 3일 이상 중합 시간을 가지는 것이 미반응 모노머의 용리량을 최소화할 수 있을 것으로 생각되었다.
