Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present disclosure generally relates to curable one - part silicone compositions. The curable one - part silicone composition includes an organopolysiloxane compound having at least two unsaturated groups, an organohydrogenpolysiloxane compound having at least two Si - H groups, a catalyst that enables a hydrogen atom bonded to silicon of the organohydrogenpolysiloxane compound to add to the unsaturated group of the organopolysiloxane compound, and at least one surface - treated particulate filler. This curable one - part silicone composition is useful for the preparation of dental impression materials, soft relining materials for dentures, and template materials for provisional crowns and bridge restorations. More specifically, the curable one - part silicone composition containing the surface - treated filler extends the storage stability of dental impression materials. The present disclosure also provides a method for preparing such curable one - part silicone compositions.

Background Art

[0002] In dentistry, addition - type silicones are the most widely used impression materials. Addition - curable silicones are widely used as impression materials in dentistry due to their high accuracy and dimensional stability. These are usually two - part types, cured by a hydrosilylation reaction, passed through a mixing tip, and hardened within a few minutes in the mouth to give an accurate impression. They also contain silica fillers to provide reinforcement and increase hardness. A catalyst often used for this reaction is the Karstedt catalyst, which is a complex of platinum(0) and divinyltetramethyldisiloxane (DVTMDS). However, since the total time for taking an impression is shortened, it would be advantageous to cure a single - component material upon demand.

[0003] Photocurable silicones used in industrial applications are typically cured by platinum-based catalysts that do not catalyze hydrosilylation reactions in the presence of hydrogen-functionalized polydimethylsiloxane (HPDMS), except for exposure. Common catalysts used in this application are platinum diacetacetate (Pt(acac)2) and trimethyl(methylcyclopentadienyl)platinum ((Me-Cp)Pt(Me)3). However, these catalysts are unstable in the presence of crosslinking agents or HPDMS and silica fillers. Their pot life is on the order of hours to days. Therefore, they are pre-mixed within hours of use. While this instability is unacceptable for dental impression materials, the expected shelf life at room temperature is over one year.

[0004] Oxman and Boardman's U.S. Patent No. 5,145,886 describes dental impression LC silicone preparations based primarily on the use of platinum(II) acetylacetonate {Pt(acac)2} as a catalyst. While inhibitors such as acetylene alcohol and phosphates are mentioned, stability exceeding 150 days is claimed without the use of inhibitors. In our experience, one of the exemplary preparations mentioned exhibited stability for several hours, more similar to photocurable silicones currently marketed for industrial applications, such as Uvisil by Wacker and similar materials by Momentive.

[0005] Irmer et al.'s U.S. Patent Application Publication US2008 / 0033071 describes a two-component LC silicone preparation optionally containing alkinol and vinylsiloxane as inhibitors. These extend the pot life of the mixture by several hours for the intended application.

[0006] Marrot et al.'s U.S. Patent Application Publication S2014 / 0004359 describes a two-component LC silicone system used as a release liner film for packaging applications. It further discloses the use of acetylenediol with an acid to extend the pot life after mixing to approximately 24 hours.

[0007] All one-component photocurable silicones that can be cured by hydrosilylation reactions use silica as a filler to obtain the desired strength and viscosity characteristics. However, based on controlled studies, it has been suggested that silica may catalyze the formation of platinum zero species Pt(0), which can lead to degradation (JC Kenvin et al, Langmuir Vol.7, 1198 (1991) and M. Womes et al, Catalysis Letters Vol.85, pg.25 (2003)). [Overview of the project] [Problems that the invention aims to solve]

[0008] As mentioned above, there is still a need for curable impression materials containing silica filler and possessing greater stability and good curability. Furthermore, curing a single-component material would be advantageous as it reduces the total impression-taking time. [Means for solving the problem]

[0009] The object of this disclosure is to provide a curable one-component silicone composition for dental impression materials that can extend the storage stability of dental impression materials. This is achieved by including surface-treated particulate fillers in the composition. The surface-treated particulate fillers reduce the reactivity of surface silanol groups.

The silicone composition comprises (a) an organic polysiloxane compound having at least two unsaturated groups, (b) an organic hydrogen polysiloxane compound having at least two Si-H groups, (c) a catalyst that enables the addition of hydrogen atoms bonded to the silicon of the organic hydrogen polysiloxane compound to the unsaturated groups of the organic polysiloxane compound, and (d) at least one surface-treated particulate filler.

[0011] According to one embodiment of a curable one-component silicone composition, a surface-treated filler extends the storage stability of dental impression material.

[0017] According to one embodiment of a curable one-component silicone composition, surface-treated particulate fillers are prepared by a process for preparing composite filler particles. This process is (a) A coating composition comprising a film-forming agent that forms a coating layer on the surface of a particulate filler, comprising the step of coating a particulate filler having a median particle size (D50) of 100 to 1200 nm, wherein the coating layer exhibits reactive groups on the surface of the coating layer, and the reactive groups are selected from addition polymerizable groups and stepwise polymerizable groups that thereby form the coated particulate filler, and thereafter or simultaneously, (b) To provide a granule of coated particulate filler, a step of granulating coated particulate filler in the presence of a further crosslinking agent and further particulate filler that does not exhibit reactive groups, wherein the granule contains coated particulate filler particles and further particulate filler particles bound together via at least one coating layer, and the at least one coating layer may be crosslinked by crosslinking groups obtained by the reaction of reactive groups and further crosslinking agents, thereby the granulation is carried out by spray granulation or growth granulation, (c) A step of milling, classifying, and sieving granules of coated particulate filler, (d) A step of further crosslinking the coated particulate filler granules, Includes, The prepared filler particles have a median particle size (D50) of 1 to 70 μm. The reactive group is converted into a crosslinking group obtained by the reaction of the reactive group with a further crosslinking agent.
