EVS-EN ISO 9917-2:2010

This part of ISO 9917 specifies requirements and test methods for dental cements that are intended for luting, base or lining and restoration purposes and for which the materials are water-based and set by multiple reactions in which setting is achieved by a combination of an acid-base reaction and polymerization. EXAMPLE  Conventional glass polyalkenoate cements are normally formed by reacting an ion-leachable aluminosilicate glass with a polyalkenoic acid in an aqueous environment. Materials that fall within the scope of this part of ISO 9917 will normally be able to effect setting by such an aqueous acid-base type reaction but in addition will be able to undergo setting by polymerization.
