DiaFil™ – Light-Cured Nanohybrid Universal Composite

Product Description

Utilizing the latest nanoparticle technology, DiaFil combines the esthetic advantages of microfilled composites with the strength and durability of hybrid composites. It creates beautiful and long-lasting restorations with a glossy shine that maintains its brilliance over time.

Flexural Strength
 The flexural strength of a material is defined as its ability to resist deformation and breakage under load. Flexural strength is the value obtained when the material breaks. This test combines the forces found in compression and tension. DiaFil shows a high level of flexural strength between 130 to 150 Mpa

Compressive Strength 
Compressive strength is especially important because it is related to masticating forces. Simultaneous forces are applied to the opposite ends of the sample length vertically until the sample fractures or is deformed. The material failure is a result of shear and tensile forces. Dia Fil has Compressive Strength ranging from 250 and 300 Mpa

Flexural Modulus 
Flexural modulus is a convenient measure of composite stiffness. DiaFil is formulated with a broad range of particle sizes which results in its higher flexural modulus (≈13-14 Gpa)

Shrinkage 
Polymerization shrinkage directly affects the long-term stability of a composite resin. When the composite’s density changes and the overall volume reduce, the internal stress at the margins of restoration can lead to marginal leakage and 
secondary caries. DiaFil has unique fillers to reduce shrinkage (Polymerization Shrinkage 0.3% - 1%)
