Abstract

Abstract A two part impression material suitable for use as a dental impression material comprises a first part containing a product of the reaction of an alpha, beta-ethylenically unsaturated dicarboxylic acid anhydride, such as maleic anhydride, and a liquid polydiene resin, e.g polybutadiene, and a second part containing a setting agent for the reaction product which setting agent is an alkoxylated fatty mono- amine or an alkoxylated fatty polyamine having from 2 to 30, preferably 5 to 15 moles of alkoxylate per mole of the fatty amine. The alkoxylate groups of the setting agent being one or more groups selected from the group comprising ethoxylate, propoxylate and butoxylate groups. A method of taking a dental impression using the reaction product of the first and second parts of the two part dental impression, material is also disclosed.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 19
Claim 1
Independent Claim 96 words
A two part impression material, suitable for use as a dental impression material, comprising a first part containing a product of the reaction of an alpha,beta-ethylenically unsaturated dicarboxylic acid anhydride and a liquid polydiene resin, and a second part containing a setting agent for the said reaction product, characterised in that the setting agent is an alkoxylated fatty mono-amine or an alkoxylated fatty polyamine having from two to thirty moles of alkoxylate per mole of the fatty amine, the alkoxylate groups being one or more alkoxylates selected from the group comprising ethoxylate, propoxylate and butoxylate groups.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 96 words
A two part impression material, suitable for use as a dental impression material, comprising a first part containing a product of the reaction of an alpha,beta-ethylenically unsaturated dicarboxylic acid anhydride and a liquid polydiene resin, and a second part containing a setting agent for the said reaction product, characterised in that the setting agent is an alkoxylated fatty mono-amine or an alkoxylated fatty polyamine having from two to thirty moles of alkoxylate per mole of the fatty amine, the alkoxylate groups being one or more alkoxylates selected from the group comprising ethoxylate, propoxylate and butoxylate groups.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 34 words
An impression material as claimed in claim 1 in which the setting agent is derived from a composition comprising one or more saturated or unsaturated fatty acids having from 12 to 18 carbon atoms.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 44 words
An impression material as claimed in claim 2 in which the setting agent is derived from one or more compositions selected from the group comprising oleic acid, lauric acid, palmitic acid, stearic acid, tallow acid, hydrogenated tallow acid, coconut oil and soya bean oil.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 29 words
An impression material as claimed in any of claims 1 to 3 in which the alkoxylate groups of the setting agent are ethoxylate groups, propoxylate groups or mixtures thereof.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 36 words
An impression material as claimed in any of claims 1 to 4 in which the setting agent is an alkoxylated monoamine or polyamine having from 5 to 15 moles of alkoxylate per mole of fatty amine.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 121 words
An impression material as claimed in any of claims 1 to 5 in which the setting agent is an alkoxylated mono-or poly- amine having the general formula; where R is a C 8 to C 22 hydrocarbyl group, R1 is (CH 2 ) 3 or CH 2 CH(CH 3 )CH 2 , R 2 , R 3 and R 4 are the same or different and are selected from H , CH3 , and CH 3 CH 2 n is 0 or a positive integer from 1 to 3 and x,y and z are the same or different and are individually 0 or a positive integer from 1 to 6, the sum of x,y and z being from 2 to 30
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 32 words

Claim 11
Dependent Claim 35 words
An impression material as claimed in any of claims 1 to 8 wherein the first part and/or second part is in the form of a paste and contains up to 80X by weight of filler.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 60 words
A two part impression material, suitable for use as a dental impression material, according to claim 1 in which the first part comprises (a) maleinised polybutadiene, (b) a filler, (c) a release agent and (d) a plasticiser and the second part comprises (a) a propoxylated oleyl diaminopropane, propoxylated to a level of from 5 to 15 and (b) a filler.
Claim 13
Independent Claim 39 words
A method of preparing an impression material, suitable for use in taking dental impressions, comprises mixing together the first part and the second part of the two part impression material as claimed in any of claims 1 to 11.
Claim 14
Dependent Claim 54 words
A method as claimed in claim 12 in which the amount of the second part mixed with the first part is such that the amount of setting agent is from 1.5 to 4 times the stoichiometric amount required to react with all of the anhydride groups of the reaction product of the first part.
