Polyacetal resin is usually used to make molds, but it is difficult to achieve dimension accuracy during molding. Therefore it is usually necessary to cut the polyacetal resin after a molding process. Polyacetal resin is easily machining by standard machine tool. Acetal is also a thermal stable material which can be totted without coolant Another concern about the use of polyacetal resin is that it absorbs water easily, which also results in problems with dimension accuracy Therefore, in this study, the cutting resistance of water-absorbed polyacetal resin and its surface roughness after cutting in order to achieve the highest degree of accuracy in the cutting of polyacetal resin were investigated. Also, The Robust Design method uses a mathematical tool called orthogonal arrays to study a large number of decision variables with a small number of experiments. It also uses a new measure of quality, called signal-to-noise (S/N) ratio, to predict the quality from the customer's perspective. Thus, we have taken Taguchi's parameter design approach, specifically orthogonal array, and determined the optimal levels of the selected variables through analysis of the experimental results using S/N ratio.

Purpose: We compare the bond strength of heat-cured PMMA of Lucitone 199 and QC-20 and Tokuyama Rebase Resin of self-cured resin, which are widely used and well accepted in clinical practice. In order to test the mechanical bonding and chemical bonding, we will compare the bond strength between EstheShot Bright, Smiletone, Repair and Rebase resins. Methods: The denture base resin used in this study was PMMA heat-cured QC-20 and Lucitone 199, polyamide resin EstheShot Bright, Smiletone. And Two types of self-curing Rapid Repair and Tokuyama Rebase were used as resection resins. To measure the bond strength, the denture specimens were fabricated in the size of $10{\times}64{\times}3.5mm$ as instructed by the manufacturer. A surface treatment agent was applied to the cut surfaces of each denture specimen, and the specimens were placed in a preformed silicone mold, and autoclaved excimer resins were prepared. The bending strength of the fabricated specimens was measured using a universal testing machine (STM-5, United Calibration Co., U.S.A.) to measure the three-point bending strength. Results: In both polycarbonate and polyacetal resin, a special resin surface treatment agent showed higher bonding strength than the resin surface treatment agent(p<0.05). Regardless of the type of surface treatment, polycarbonate showed higher bond strength than polyacetal resin(p<0.05). Conclusion: It is considered desirable to use a special surface treating agent for the thermoplastic denture base resin such as polycarbonate and polyacetal resin.

Polyacetals with melamine were investigated in terms of mechanical properties. It was found that tensile strength, impact strength and elongation were decreased with the increase of melamine content up to 30 par, flexural strength had no remarkable changes. For master-batch using polyurethane as carrier resin, in which the ratio of polyurethane to melamine was 2:1, tensile strength and flexural strength were decreased and impact strength remained unchanged with melamine me content.

In the development and mass production of polymers, there are many uncontrollable variables. Even small changes in chemical composition, structure, and processing conditions can lead to large variations in properties. Therefore, Traditional linear modeling techniques that assume a general environment often produce significant errors when applied to field data. In this study, we propose a new modeling method (GPR-SEM) that combines Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) and Gaussian Process Regression (GPR) to study the Friction-Coefficient and Flexural-Strength properties of Polyacetal resin, an engineering plastic, in order to meet the recent trend of using plastics in industrial drive components. And we also consider the possibility of using it for materials modeling with nonlinearity.

Purpose: This study is a mechanical strength supplementation of denture base resin Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) is in general use for denture base resin of the partial and full denture, however, The polymerization process of PMMA is not stabilized. Because of compatibility problems, preceding studies were performed, which were enhancing mechanical strength(Camilo Machado 2007),(Ana M. 2008), addition filler to materials property(Ayse Mese, 2008), self curing method(Hiroshi Shimizu, 2008). Methods: The carbon fiber and polyacetal filler, reinforced the mechanical strength for improving the stability of denture base resin were supplemented to the self cured resin. The Modulus of elasticity and the restoring force were calculated by tensile test. Results: The strengths of the heat and self cured resin were respectively decreased and increased, when the filler was supplemented to the denture base resin and the modulus of elasticity of both heat and self cured resin were not increased, when the filler was supplemented to the denture base resin. Conclusion: The restoring forces of self cured resin containing 10% filler were increased, when the filler was supplemented to the denture base resin.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the bond strength of reline resin to pressure injection type thermoplastic denture base resin. The denture base resins used in this study were $Hi-polycarbonate^{(R)}$(High Dental Co., Japan), Acetal $dental^{(R)}$(Pressingdental s.r.1., Repubblica di San Marine) of thermoplastic resin and Acron $MC^{(R)}$(GC Dental Industrial Co., Japan) of heat cured resin. The reline resins used were Lucitone $199^{(R)}$(Dentsply international Inc., USA), Tokuso $rebase^{(R)}$(Tokuyama Corp., Japan), and $Lightdon-U^{(R)}$(Dreve-Dentamid-Gmbh, Germany). The reline resins are representative of heat-cured, self-cured, and light-cured resin respectively Bond strength was examined by use of a three-point transverse flexural strength test. The results were as follows 1. The bond strength of Lucitone 199 to Acron MC was the highest. 2. The bond strengths of Lucitone 199 and Tokuso rebase to Hi-polycarbonate resulted in a value of approximately one half that of Lucitone 199 to Acron MC and there were no significant differences between these and the bond strength of Tokuso rebase to Acron MC(p<0.05) 3. The bond strengths of reline resins to Acetal dental were lower than those of reline resins to Hi-polycarbonate. 4. For all base resins Lightdon-U showed lower bond strength than the other reline resins.
