8. Hydrocolloids Solvent and Solute Solution single phase, which means a homogenous mixture, where the solute exists as small molecules or ions in the solvent. Emulsion heterogeneous two-phase system, a dispersed phase of particles of at least sufficient size to be seen microscopically, dispersed in a medium. Colloids

9. HYDROCOLLOIDS • Colloidsbetween these two extremes. heterogeneous two-phase system, like suspension particle size of the dispersed phase is smaller. • hydrocolloids when the dispersion medium is water. • Colloids may exist in the sol and gel state.

10. sol = viscous liquid • sol → gel (agglomeration of the molecules of dispersed phase, to form fibrils or chains of molecule), in a network pattern, called brush heap structure. • Agglomeration of the molecules of the dispersed phase to form chains of molecules in a network pattern,

12. Sol Gel 1- Reduction in temperature e.g. (reversible as in agar) 2- Chemical reaction e.g. (irreversible as in alginate)

13. Sol Viscous liquid • Gel jelly like structure Hydrocolloid impression materials Prof .Dr. Manal A. El-Ebiary

14. General properties of hydrocolloids

15. 1. Gel strength: The strength or toughness of a gel depends on: a. The concentration of the fibrils: The greater the concentration, the stronger the material. b. The concentration of fillers:Which are inert powders added to a gel to render it less flexible. c. In reversible gels: The lower the temperature, the stronger the gel and vice versa.

16. 2. Dimensional changes after setting: • The loss of water is termedsynersisand occurs also by evaporation. • The uptake of water is called imbibition synersis and imbibition of the gel should be avoided as the former causes shrinkage, and the latter results in swelling and expansion.

17. Storage media, such as: • 2% potassium sulfate or • 100% relative humidity, reduce the dimensional changes. • The best results are obtained with 100% relative humidity (storage in 100% relative humidity results in minimum amount of shrinkage). • Hydrocolloid impression must be poured within a short time after removal from the mouth

18. 3. Disinfection: → Disinfection should be relatively rapid to prevent dimensional changes. Disinfectant is sprayed on the exposed surface.

19. The impression should not be soaked in the disinfectant. Immediately wrap the impression in a disinfectant soaked paper towel and place it in a sealed plastic bag for 10 minutes. Finally remove the wrapped impression from the bag, unwrap, rinse thoroughly, shake off the excess water and pour the model with stone.

20. 4. Compatibility with gypsum: [Gypsum cast may be too soft]: • This may be due to thepresence of the water on the surface of the hydrocolloid which affects the setting and surface properties of the gypsum cast • Or due to the chemical composition of some hydrocolloids which retard the setting of gypsum products.

21. This disadvantage can be overcome by two ways: 1- By immersing the impression in a solution containing an accelerator for the setting of gypsum products, before pouring the impression with the gypsum. 2- By incorporating a plaster hardener or accelerator in the hydrocolloid material by the manufacturer. 3- The cast should not be left too long in contact with the impression. The set stone absorbs water from the water-filled impression. The result is a chalky surface with poor details.

46. Factors affecting setting time Temperature Ratio Type Mixing rate Hydrocolloid impression materials Prof .Dr. Manal A. El-Ebiary

47. Slower or faster setting can be achieved, by using cooler or warmer water respectively. • Reduction of the powderratio leads to increases the setting time, but it reduces the strength and accuracy of the alginate. • Type of alginate • Fast setting = l: 2 min. • Regular setting =2:4 min. • Increase mixing time leads to decrease setting time.
