RESUMO

The aim of this study was to evaluate the tensile strength, through tensile tests, of a photopolymerizable composite resin (Filtek Z250 - 3M/ESPE), with variation of materials thickness, using an halogen light curing unit (Curing Light 2500 - 3M/ESPE - CL) and two light emitting diodes units (Ultraled - Dabi/Atlante - UL; Ultrablue IS - DMC - UB3 and UB6) with different power densities (130, 300, 600 and 640mW/cm2), as well as the influence of activation times (20, 40 and 60s) and, additionally, relate this data with the Knoop microhardness in that area corresponding to the fracture region of material. A number of 24 groups were stablished and a set of stainless matrix composed by two parts was used, with thickness of 1 and 2mm, to obtain the specimens. Next, the specimens were submitted to tensile tests in a Universal Testing Machine (Kratos), using a crosshead speed of 0,5mm/min and a 50Kg load cell until fracture. Tensile strength values were calculated in kgf/cm2 and translated into MPa. To microhardness test, the same matrix was used to obtain the specimens (24 groups - n=5), analyzing the hardness in the surfaces exposed and non-exposed to the light source. The Knoop microhardness test was made using a Shimadzu HMV-2 Microhardness Tester, at a static load of 50g at 30 seconds. The values obtained were submitted to three-way ANOVA and for individual comparison a Tukey test The aim of this study was to evaluate the tensile strength, through tensile tests, of a photopolymerizable composite resin (Filtek Z250 - 3M/ESPE), with variation of materials thickness, using an halogen light curing unit (Curing Light 2500 - 3M/ESPE - CL) and two light emitting diodes units (Ultraled - Dabi/Atlante - UL; Ultrablue IS - DMC - UB3 and UB6) with different power densities (130, 300, 600 and 640mW/cm2), as well as the influence of activation times (20, 40 and 60s) and, additionally, relate this data with the Knoop microhardness in that area corresponding to the fracture region of material.
