Effect of adding silver nanoparticle on physical and mechanical properties of maxillofacial silicone elastomer material-an in-vitro study

ConclusionThe present study findings suggest that addition of silver nanoparticles at 20 ppm concentration decreased the hardness of Teksil 25(S25) silicone elastomer, and it did not affect tear strength and color stability.
