Effect of Extraoral Aging Conditions on Color Stability of Maxillofacial Silicone Elastomer

Abstract: There is inherent color instability of nonpigmented silicone elastomer, which adds to the overall color change of silicone prostheses. Storing silicone elastomer in simulated sebum under light aging induced the greatest color changes. Overall, the color stability of TechSil S25 maxillofacial heat-temperature-vulcanizing (HTV) silicone elastomer was unacceptable (ΔE > 3.0, range from 3.48 to 9.89 for pigmented and 3.89 to 10.78 for nonpigmented) when subjected to six of the seven extraoral aging conditionings u… Show more

“…UV irradiation can contribute to enhancing cross linking leading to breaking down of chain bonds and decomposing of elastomer. 22 The samples subjected to artificial perspiration showed least colour change when compared to the samples subjected to the cleansing agent. This was not in agreement to a study by Hatamleh 22 which showed that the antimicrobial cleansing agent produces the least colour change when compared to acidic perspiration.…”
