Flexural properties and shock?absorbing capabilities of new face guard materials reinforced with fiberglass cloth

Conclusions:?The flexural strength (74.6?MPa) and flexural modulus (6.3?GPa) of the experimental material with four sheets were significantly greater than those of the 3.2?mm commercial specimens, except for the flexural strength of one product. The first peak intensity (515?N) and maximum stress (2.2?MPa) of the experimental material with four sheets were significantly lower than those of the commercial 3.2?mm specimens, except for one product for each property. These results suggest that the thickness and weight of the FG can be reduced using the experimental fiber?reinforced material. (Source: Dental Traumatology)
