“…CNFs have potential for use as a denture base material, as they have excellent mechanical and chemical properties such as high strength, light weight, little deformation by heat, transparency, and easy surface modification [5]. Application of CNFs would be expected to improve the mechanical strength and weight of dental materials, and to introduce functionality, such as biocompatibility, and antibacterial and deodorant properties [6]. Therefore, the development of new "petroleum-free" dental materials using CNFs instead of acrylic resins would have a number of benefits.…”
