The invention discloses a dental CAD /
CAM machinable PMMA and a preparation method thereof. Raw materials used are MMA monomers, initiators, cross-linking agents and colorants; the MMA monomers, the initiators and the cross-linking agents are added to a reactor,
clockwise stirring of 20-30 turns is conducted, standing is conducted for 10-20 minutes, the MMA monomers, the initiators and the cross-linking agents are put into a water bath at 60-80 DEG C, and pre-
polymerization is carried out; the raw materials are taken out after the pre-
polymerization is completed, and the raw materials are placed in
ice water to be cooled to 20-30 DEG C; the colorants are added to pre-polymerized
slurry, then stirred for 30-60 minutes by using a stirrer, and packed into a mold by weight according to the product specifications, a
polymerization reaction is carried out, after the completion of the polymerization, the mold is removed, and the PMMA is obtained. A
bulk polymerization method has high production efficiency, no waste
discharge, simple process, small floor space, low cost and convenient equipment cleaning.
