Hussein Mohamed Sadeq1, Sihama Issa Salih2, Auda Jabbar Braihi3.
In this study, an attempt to develop the mechanical properties of PMMA that are used in
dentures material by using polymers blends of (PMMA: 2%NR) and (PMMA: 2%SR) as a
matrix reinforced with natural nanoparticles of Clove Powder (CP) that were added with
different weight fractions of (0.0, 0.1%, 0.3%, 0.5% and 0.7%). Two groups of composites
samples were prepared according to the type of polymer blends matrix by using the hand
lay-up method. The maximum values of tensile strength and modulus of elasticity were
noted at 65 MPa and 1.033 GPa respectively for polymer blend nanocomposite [(PMMA:
2%NR): 0.5% CP], whereas, the Shore D hardness reaches to a maximum value of (89) for
polymer blend nanocomposite (PMMA: 2%NR): 0.7% CP). On the basis of these results, it
can be concluded that the addition of CP in a nanometer size to polymer blends materials
(PMMA: 2% NR) is one of the hopeful materials that can be utilized to develop the
mechanical properties for dentures base applications.
