FTIR-ATR, contact angle, and maximum breach torque were employed for measurement. The results reveal that the introduction of hydrophilic functional groups has increased PMMA's surface hydrophilicity after contact angle test. FTIR-ATR results suggest the hydrophilic groups participate in the polymerization reactions, and maximum breach torque of the hydrophilic acrylic bone cements is near 110 Ncm torque. Those effects make it possible for conventional acrylic bone cement application in immediate loading of dental implant.展开更多
