Purpose: In this study, thermal properties were observed by measuring the extent of thermal expansion and the amount of thermal residue that appears upon burnout on a workpiece made by using a dental digital light processing (DLP) three-dimensional (3D) printer. Methods: Thermal properties of workpieces manufactured by using two 3D printers were observed. The specimens were designed in cylindrical form with dimensions 10 mm in diameter and 10 mm in height. The control specimen was made of wax, and the experimental specimen was made of resin. The thermal expansion rate was measured by applying heat to three types of specimens, and burnout residue was measured. Results: The thermal expansion rate of the wax pattern (WP) specimen was 0.93%±0.05%, of the RP1 specimen was 1.30%±0.08%, and of the RP2 specimen was 1.20%±0.09%. Measuring the recovered residue yielded residual amounts of 0.2% for the WP specimen, 1.1% for the RP2 specimen, and 1.8% for the RP1 specimen. Conclusion: 1. From measurements of the workpieces manufactured by dental DLP 3D printing, the thermal expansion rate was found to be higher than that of wax. 2. As a result of measuring burnout residues on the workpieces manufactured by dental DLP 3D printing, the required summoning temperature to obtain suitable castings was determined to >750℃.

PURPOSE. To evaluate the effect of surface treatments and repair materials on the shear bond strength and to measure the fracture toughness of CAD/CAM provisional restoration materials. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Four CAD/CAM (3D printing: Nextdent C&B and ZMD-1000B Temporary, CAD/CAM resin block: Yamahachi PMMA disk and Huge PMMA block) and four conventional (monometacrylate: Jet and Alike, dimetacrylate: Luxatemp and Protemp 4) materials were selected to fabricate disk-shaped specimens and divided into six groups according to surface treatment (n=10). CAD/CAM materials were repaired with Jet or Luxatemp, while conventional materials were repaired with their own materials. The shear bond strength was measured by using universal testing machine. Ten rectangular column-shaped specimens for each material were fabricated to measure the fracture toughness by single edge v notched beam technique. Statistical analysis was performed by one-way ANOVA. RESULTS. The highest shear bond strength of CAD/CAM materials was achieved by SiC paper + sandblasting. It was also accomplished when repairing 3D printing materials with Luxatemp, and repairing CAD/CAM resin blocks with Jet. Yamahachi PMMA disk showed the highest fracture toughness. Nextdent C&B showed the lowest fracture toughness value but no statistically significant difference from Alike and Luxatemp (P>.05). CONCLUSION. In order to successfully repair the CAD/CAM provisional restoration, mechanical surface treatment and appropriate repair material according to the CAD/CAM material type should be selected. The CAD/CAM provisional materials have proper mechanical properties for clinical use as compared to conventional materials.

Recently, additive manufacturing (AM) technology has been applied to various industries such as automotive, aviation, medical, and electronics. Most prior studies are limited to the mechanical properties of printed materials, and few studies are being conducted on their tribological characteristics. However, the friction and wear characteristics of the material should be studied in order to utilize the components manufactured using AM technology as mechanical parts. In this study, the friction and wear characteristics of acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS)-like resin printed with stereo lithography apparatus (SLA) 3D printing are evaluated according to the viscosity of silicon oil lubricant using a ball-on-disk experiment. Lubricants with a viscosity of 500, 1000, and 2000 cSt are prepared for the experiment. If silicon oil lubricants are used during the ball-on-disk test, the coefficient of friction (COF) and wear rates are significantly reduced, and the higher the viscosity of the lubricant, the lower will be the COF and wear rates. It is also verified that the temperature of the specimen owing to friction also decreases according to the viscosity of the lubricant. This is because of the silicon oil film thickness, and the higher the viscosity of the lubricant, the thicker will be the oil film. More studies on the tribological characteristics of 3D printing materials and suitable lubricants will be required to use 3D printed parts as mechanical elements.

본 연구에서 상용 아크릴 기반 레진에 PPO 유기섬광체 및 MMA를 각각 1 wt% 및 5 wt% 첨가하여 3D 프린팅이 가능한 섬광체 레진을 제작하였다. 개발된 섬광체 레진을 사용하여 상용 3D DLP로 간편하면서도 저렴하게 3D 모양의 플라스틱 섬광체 방사선 센서를 성공적으로 제작할 수 있었다. 제작된 센서는 45 MeV 양성자 빔의 빔 전류 1 ~ 10 nA 범위에서 R제곱값이 0.998로 우수한 선량 대 출력 직선성을 보였다. 개발된 3D 플라스틱 섬광체는 광출력이 낮아서 저선량율 감마선이나 X선 선량 측정에 활용하기에는 제한이 있지만, 조직등가물질로서 인체흡수선량을 직접 측정할 수 있기 때문에 양성자 빔, 초고선량율 빔 등 고에너지 또는 고선량율 방사선 선량 측정에 유용하게 활용될 수 있음을 확인하였다.

PZT suspensions for photo-curable 3D printing were fabricated and their characteristics were evaluated. After mixing the PZT, photopolymer, photo-initiator, and dispersant for 10 min by using a high-shear mixer, the viscosity characteristics were investigated based on the powder content. To determine an appropriate dispersant content, the dispersant was mixed at 1, 3, and 5 wt% of the powder and a precipitation test was conducted for two hours. Consequently, it was confirmed that the dispersibility was excellent at 3 wt%. Through thermogravimetric analysis, it was confirmed that weight reduction occurred in the photopolymer between 120? and 500?, thereby providing a debinding heat treatment profile. The fabricated suspensions were cured using UV light, and the polymer was removed through debinding. Subsequently, the density and surface characteristics were analyzed by using the Archimedes method and field-emission scanning electron microscopy. Consequently, compared with the theoretical density, an excellent characteristic of 97% was shown at a powder content of 87 wt%. Through X-ray diffraction analysis, it was confirmed that the crystallizability improved as the solid content increased. At the mixing ratio of 87 wt% powder and 13 wt% photo-curable resin, the viscosity was 3,100 cps, confirming an appropriate viscosity characteristic as a stereolithography suspension for 3D printing.

목적: 다양한 3D 프린팅 의치상 레진과 여러 가지 의치 첨상 재료 간의 전단결합강도를 평가하여 기존의 열중합 의치상 레진과의 전단결합강도를 비교 평가하고자 하였다. 연구 재료 및 방법: 열중합레진(Vertex RS)과 3D프린팅 의치상 레진 두종(DENTCA Denture base II, NextDent^TM Base)을 사용하였다. 의치 첨상 재료로는 성분이 다른 총 4종(Tokuyama Rebase II fast, Kooliner, Denture Liner, Denture Liner, Lang Jet Denture Repair Kit)을 사용하여 12개의 군으로 분류하였다. ISO/TS 11405규격에 따라 접착을 시행하였다. 전단결합강도를 측정하였고, 이후 입체현미경과 주사전자현미경을 이용하여 접착 계면을 관찰하고 파절편의 분석을 통하여 파절 양상을 조사하였다. 결과: 3D 프린팅 의치상 레진 군에서 의치 첨상 재료와의 전단결합강도가 열중합레진 군에 비해 유의하게 낮은 전단결합강도 결과를 나타내었다(P < 0.05). Polymethyl methacrylate계열의 첨상재료의 경우, 의치상종류와 관계없이 높은 전단결합강도를 보였다. 파절 양상은 대부분의 군에서 접착성 파절이 나타났고 일부 군에서 응집성 파절과 혼합성 파절 양상이 나타났다. 결론: Polymethyl methacrylate를 주성분으로 하는 의치 첨상 재료가 실험에 사용된 모든 의치상 레진에서 다른 의치 첨상 재료와 비교하여 높은 전단 결합강도 값을 나타내었지만, 직접법으로 의치 첨상을 시행할 경우 단량체로 Isobutyl methacrylate 성분의 의치 첨상재료를 사용하는 것이 전단결합강도면에서 유리할 것으로 사료된다.

Consumer orientation requires that companies understand consumer needs and produce products that meet their expectations. This study proposes a new additive method that creates a polymer/metal bonding layer and thus can lighten the weight of helmets to develop a consumer-oriented 3D printing helmet. The composite solution is experimentally prepared with copper formate and a photopolymer resin. Stereolithography apparatus and photothermal reactions are introduced to fabricate an adhesive hybrid layer of copper metal and polymer. A UV pulse laser with a 355 nm wavelength was installed to simplify this process. Resistance, adhesion, and accuracy were investigated to evaluate the properties of the layer produced.

PURPOSE. The purpose of this study was to analyze the marginal fit of three-unit resin prostheses printed with the stereolithography (SLA) method in two build orientations (45°, 60°) and two layer thicknesses (50 ㎛, 100 ㎛). MATERIALS AND METHODS. A master model for a three-unit resin prosthesis was designed with two implant abutments. Forty specimens were printed using an SLA 3D printer. The specimens were printed with two build orientations (45°, 60°), and each orientation was printed with two layer thicknesses (50 ㎛, 100 ㎛). The marginal fit was measured as the marginal gap (MG) and absolute marginal discrepancy (AMD), and MG and AMD measurements were performed at 8 points per abutment, for 16 points per specimen. All statistical analyses were performed using SPSS software. Two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was separately performed on the MG and AMD values of the build orientations and layer thicknesses. Moreover, one-way ANOVA was performed for each point within each group. RESULTS. The margins of the area adjacent to the pontic showed significantly high values, and the values were smaller when the build orientation was 45° than when it was 60°. However, the margin did not differ significantly according to the layer thicknesses. CONCLUSION. The marginal fit of the three-unit resin prosthesis fabricated by the SLA 3D method was affected by the pontic. Moreover, the marginal fit was affected by the build orientation. The 45° build orientation is recommended.

Purpose: This study is to compare and analyze the shrinkage of the specimen after UV irradiation of UV cured resin at 5, 15, and 30 minutes. Methods: A cylindrical UV cured specimen was produced using a stainless steel mold. UV cured resin specimens were prepared in three groups: 5 minutes cured (5M), 15 minutes cured (15M), and 30 minutes cured (30M). The measurement was made in total 3rd. The measurement was made in total 3rd. The primary measurement was made after 24 hours using a digital measuring instrument. The 2nd and 3rd measurements were deposited in a constant temperature water bath and the shrinkage was measured. The measured data was calculated by referring to the ASTM C326 linear measurement calculation method. T-test and One-way ANOVA were performed to test the significance between groups. The post-test was conducted with Tukey (α=0.05). Results: When the inner diameter and the outer diameter of the three groups not placed in the water bath were compared and analyzed, the contraction was the smallest at 6.8% in the 5M group, and the contraction was the largest at 7.3% in the 30M group. In the outer diameter, the contraction of the 5M group was the smallest at 3.5%, and the contraction of the 30M group was the largest at 4.5%. Shrinkage decreased in all three groups immersed in a water bath for 3-7 days. Conclusion: In the UV cured resin specimen, the shrinkage increased as the amount of UV irradiation increased.
