CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS This application is a national stage filing under 35 U.S.C. 371 of PCT/EP2004/007783 filed Jul. 14, 2004.
The invention relates to a curable dental composition containing a Si�H functional carbosilane component. The composition has improved properties and can be used e.g. as a dental filling material.
The dental filling materials on the market can generally be divided into composites, resin modified glass ionomer cements and glass ionomer cements (GIZ). The composites cure usually via a light induced radical polymerisation of unsaturated components, especially (meth)acrylates. The glass ionomer cements cure by a cement setting reaction, whereas the resin modified glass ionomer cements cure using both mechanisms.
Of special interest are the dental composites, the curing of which results in a very hard material compared to the glass ionomer cements, which are especially useful for filling teeth cavities. However, a well-known disadvantage of the dental composites on the market is that the compositions shrink on curing. A further drawback is that some of the components of the dental composite materials are not hydrolytically very stable and/or are comparably hydrophilic, and thus undesirable substances can emerge from the cured composition over the years.
Attempts were made to solve the above-mentioned problems.
In this respect U.S. Pat. No. 6,653,375 B2 describes urethane di(meth)acrylate derivatives of 1,3-bis(1-isocyanato-1-1methylethyl)benzene. It is stated that the monomers have a refractive index compatible with that of customary dental filling materials, do not tend towards discolorations and can replace bis-GMA in dental materials without impairing the mechanical properties of the materials.
U.S. Pat. No. 6,624,236 B1 is directed to cyclosiloxane-based crosslinkable monomers, production thereof and use thereof in polymerisable materials, in particular to polysiloxanes from sol-gel-condensable cyclosiloxane (meth)acrylates as well as resinous compositions.
U.S. Pat. No. 6,566,413 B1 relates to polymerisable materials based on hardenable siloxane compounds useful for dental compositions. It is described that the siiloxane compounds used display a low viscosity, permit a high filler uptake and lead to compositions with a low polymerisation shrinkage.
In WO 01/92271 A1 prepolymeric (meth)acrylates with polycyclic or aromatic segments are described useful for the preparation of dental materials. It is said that the siloxane monomers have a high molecular weight (e.g. over 600 g/mol), have a high (meth)acrylate functionality and a low visclosity.
WO 2001095862 A1 refers to a low shrinking polymerisable dental material including a mixture of di- or poly(meth)acrylate, an alkoxylated bisphenol dimethacrylate, a polymerisable monomer, a polymerisation initiator and/or sensitizer, a stabilizer and a filler. It is mentioned that the volumetric shrinkage during polymerisation is less than 2 Vol-%.
EP 0 451 709 A2 discloses silanes of a certain formula which can comprise groups containing (meth)acrylate moieties. It is stated that the silanes can be used as such or as additives for coating compositions, bulk materials, adhesives and compositions for injection moulding.
The solutions described above however are not completely satisfying.
Therefore, there is a need for alternatives. There is especially a need for alternative materials with improved properties.
It is thus an object of the present invention to alleviate one or more of the problems mentioned above.
It is also an object of the present invention to provide an esthetical composition if used in the dental field.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a lipophilic composition.
It is a further object of the present invention to provide a composition with improved properties, especially a composition which enables one to provide a composition having a low shrinkage value.
It has been found that one or more of the above mentioned objects can be achieved by providing a composition as described in the text below.
Surprisingly, it has been found that using carbosilane compounds comprising Si�H functional groups, and not containing carbosiloxane structures, enables one to provide curable dental compositions with improved properties.
Thus, the present invention relates to a dental composition comprising
a) carbosilane containing component (A) comprising
at least 1 Si-Aryl bond, at least 1 silicon atom, at least 2 Si�H functional moieties, wherein one silicon atom can bear more than one H atom; no Si-Oxygen bond, b) unsaturated component (B1), and/or epoxy component (B2), c) initiator (C), d) optionally filler (D), e) optionally component (E) selected from modifiers, dyes, pigments, thixotropic agents, flow improvers, polymeric thickeners, surfactants, odorous substances, diluting agent(s) and flavourings. The invention also relates to a method of producing the composition as described in the text below.
Additionally, the invention relates to a method of using the composition as described in the text below.
Carbosilane containing component (A) can be used alone or in a mixture with other Si�H functional compounds as reactive compounds in dental materials that may also contain other reactive and/or unreactive components, if needed.
This invention offers a way to provide dental composition with improved properties. Carbosilane containing component (A) might show a comparably high refractive index together with a comparably low viscosity so that the dental compositions provided might have an excellent opacity and thus can be highly esthetic. Moreover, the compositions might show comparably low shrinkage as well as low uptake of water and/or water soluble dyes (e.g. from coffee, tea, red wine) after curing compared to other dental compositions on the market.

If not indicated otherwise, the measurements are done at standard temperature and pressure (�STP�, i.e. 23� C. and 1023 hPa) according to the methods described below.
The refractive index of carbosilane containing component (A) can be measured with a Kruess AR 4 D device (refractometer according to Abbe's measure principle). The refractive index is measured at 20.0� C. The refractive index is measured at a wavelength of 589 nm.
The viscosity of carbosilane containing component (A) can be measured with a Haake RotoVisco RV1 device (rotor C60/1 for viscosities up to 8000 mPa�s or rotor C20/1 for viscosities above 8000 mPa�s together with stator P61). The viscosity is measured at 23.0� C. between two plane and parallel plates (i.e. stator and rotor). After activation and rectification of the system, the appropriate rotor is installed. Then the rotor is lowered and the distance between stator and rotor is adjusted to 0.052 mm (using Software RheoWin Pro Job Manager Software Version 2.94} for the viscosity measurement. Then the rotor is lifted and the material to be measured is put on the stator (1.0 ml with rotor C60/1 or 0.04 ml with rotor C20/1). Without undue delay, the rotor is lowered back to the preliminary adjusted measuring position. The material to be measured is tempered at 23.0� C. The shear rate for the measurement is adjusted to a value that produced a torque of at least 5000 μNm (therefore normally shear rates of 100, 200, 500, or 1000 s−1 were used depending on the viscosity of the material to be measured). The measurement is started and run for 60s. The viscosity values (Pa�s) are recorded 20 s after the start of measurement and the mean value of the recorded values was given as viscosity.
The molecular weight (Mw) of carbosilane containing component (A) is determined with GPC. Appropriate methods are know by the expert. In addition the determination of the molecular weight is possible using nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (end-group determination).
The opacity of the cured dental composition is measured by means of specimens with a defined height of 3.6 (+/−0.1) mm and a diameter of 20 (+/−0.1) mm. These are prepared by filling the material to be checked into suitably high rings, evenly and free of bubbles, and curing it chemically by storing it at standard temperature or 50� C. over night between plane, transparent, silicone oil treated glass slides. The opacity is then measured with the colour measuring device �HunterLab LabScan Spectralcolorimeter� of Hunter Lab Associates Laboratory, Inc., USA (Software SpecWare Software Version 1.01) and given by the device in %-values.
The compressive strength and the flexural strength are measured comparably to ISO 9917 respectively according to ISO 4049. For the measurement of the compressive strength 10 specimens (3�3�5 mm) of each material is prepared according to the manufacturer's recommendations and the measurements were carried out comparably to ISO 9917 using an universal testing machine (Zwick Z 010, crosshead speed 4mm/min). The compressive strength is given is MPa. The measurement of the flexural strength is carried out according to ISO 4049 using an universal testing machine (Zwick Z 010, crosshead speed 2 mm/min). The flexural strength is given in MPa.
Carbosilane containing component (A) of the inventive composition can be characterized by formula (A):
Aryl-[Si(A)aHb]n (A)
with independently selected from each other
A=(cyclo)aliphatic moiety (C1 to C6, preferably C1), aromatic moiety (C6 to C14, preferably phenyl) Br=bromine atom C=carbon atom Cl=chlorine atom H=hydrogen atom O=oxygen atom Si=silicon atom Aryl=aromatic moiety (C6 to C14), preferably benzene, naphthalene, alkoxybenzenes, alkoxy naphthalenes, bisphenol A ethers or bisphenol F ethers a+b=3 a=0, 1 or 2 (preferably a=2) b=1, 2 or 3 (preferably b=1) n=1, 2, 3, 4, 5or 6(preferably n=2 to 4). Carbosilane containing component (A) of the inventive composition thus usually has a comparably high refractive index preferably together with a comparably low viscosity, a comparably high lipophilicity, and a comparably high molecular weight.
Without wishing to be limited to any particular mechanism, it is thought that due to the aromatic moiety within carbosilane containing component (A) the refractive index and the lipophilicity are comparably high which can of some importance for dental materials to achieve appropriate esthetics as well as to avoid staining and/or swelling by uptake of water and/or water soluble dyes (e.g. from coffee, tea, red wine).
Without wishing to be limited to any particular mechanism, it is also thought that due to the comparably high molecular weight of carbosilane containing component (A) and/or different reactivities of Si�H functional moieties Si(A)aHb within carbosilane containing component (A), the volume shrinkage of derived dental compositions is reduced in comparison to conventional (meth)acrylate composites.

The following compounds are examples of preferred poly Si�H functional carbosilane components (iv) used according to scheme (II) for the synthesis of carbosilane containing component (A) fulfilling the requirements according to formulas (IVa and IVb):
Examples of preferred non-silicon containing diolefinic precursors (v) are:
Useful unsaturated components (B1) can react with carbosilane containing component (A) via hydrosilylation reaction. Such unsaturated components (B1) include organopolysiloxane and/or carbosilane derived compounds with olefinic groups as well as other silicon-free compounds bearing olefinic groups. Unsaturated component (B1) is preferably an organopolysiloxane with at least 2 olefinic groups per molecule and/or a carbosilane with at least 2 olefinic groups per molecule and/or a silicon-free compound with at least 2 olefinic groups per molecule.
Useful epoxy components (B2) can react with carbosilane containing component (A) via metal induced cationic ring opening polymerization reaction of epoxies. Such epoxy components (B2) can be organopolysiloxane and/or carbosilane derived compounds with epoxy groups as well as other silicon-free compounds bearing epoxy groups. Epoxy component (B2) is preferably an organopolysiloxane with at least 2 epoxy groups per molecule and/or a carbosilane with at least 2 epoxy groups per molecule and/or a silicon free compound with at least 2 epoxy groups per molecule. Examples of such epoxy components can be found in U.S. Pat. No. 6,245,828 A1, EP 1 368 402 A1 and US 2003035899 A1.
Useful initiators (C) can initiate curing of carbosilane containing component (A) of the composition in the presence of an unsaturated compound (B1) and/or epoxy compound (B2).
Such initiators can be light curing or chemical curing. Both types of initiators are well known to the skilled person in the art.
Representative examples of such initiators include, e.g. complexes of platinum (oxidation states 0 and/or +2), palladium (oxidation states 0 and/or +2), or rhodium (oxidation states 0 and/or +1), as described e.g. within Marciniec, B., Comprehensive Handbook on Hydrosilylation, p8ff., Pergamon Press, Oxford, 1992 or e.g. in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,145,886, 6,046,250, 6,376,569.
Initiator (C) is preferably a platinum complex which was prepared from hexachloroplatinum acid by reduction with tetramethyldivinyidisiloxane. These compounds are known. Other platinum compounds which can accelerate addition cross-linking, are also suitable. Examples of suitable Platinum-siloxane complexes are described e.g. in U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,715,334, 3,775,352 and 3,814,730. The platinum catalyst is preferably used in quantities of 0.00005 to 0.5 wt.-%, particularly 0.0002 to 0.2 wt.-%, each calculated as elemental platinum and related to the overall weight of the material present regarding components (A) to (E).
To control the reactivity, it may be desirable to add an inhibitor which prevents premature cross-linking to elastomers. Such inhibitors are known and described, e.g. in U.S. Pat. No. 3,933,880. Examples of such include acetylenic unsaturated alcohols such as 3-Methyl-1-butyne-3-ol, 1-Ethynylcyclohexane-1-ol, 3,5-Dimethyl-1-hexyne-3-ol and 3-Methyl-1-pentyne-3-ol. Examples of inhibitors based on vinyl siloxane include 1,1,3,3-Tetramethyl-1,3-divinyl siloxane and poly-, oligo- and disiloxane-containing vinyl groups.
The composition of the present invention may also include filler (D), preferably inorganic fillers like quartz, ground glasses, silica gels as well as pyrogenic silicic acids and precipitation silicic acids or their granules. X-ray-opaque fillers are also preferably used, at least partially. These can, for example, be X-ray-opaque glasses, i.e. glasses which, for example, contain strontium, barium or lanthanum (e.g. according to U.S. Pat. No. 3,971,754) Some of the fillers may contain an X-ray-opaque additive, such as yttrium trifluoride, strontium hexafluorozirconate or fluorides of the rare earth metals (e.g. according to EP 0 238 025 A1). For better incorporation into the polymer matrix, it may be advantageous to hydrophobize the inorganic fillers. Typical hydrophobization agents include silanes, e.g. (5-Hexenyl)trimethoxysilane or [2-(3-Cyclohexenyl) -ethyl]trimethoxysilane. The fillers preferably have an average grain size <20 μm, particularly <5 μm and more particularly <2 μm and an upper grain limit of 150 μm, particularly 70 μm and more particularly 25 μm. Such fillers can be present in amounts of from about 3 to about 90 weight percent, especially about 25 to about 80 or about 50 to about 75 wt.-% of the composition.
Non-reinforcing fillers may also be used in the invention such as quartz, cristobalite, calcium silicate, diatomaceous earth, zirconium silicate, montmorillonite such as bentonite, zeolite, including moleculer sieves such as sodium aluminium silicate, metal oxide powder such as aluminium or zinc oxide or their mixed oxides, barium sulphate, calcium carbonate, plaster, glass and plastic powder.
Suitable fillers also include reinforcing fillers such as e.g. pyrogenic or precipitated silicic acid and silica aluminium mixed oxides. The above mentioned fillers can be hydrophobized, for example by treatment with organosilanes or siloxanes or by the etherification of hydroxyl groups to alkoxy groups. One type of filler or also a mixture of at least two fillers can be used.
A combination of reinforcing and non-reinforcing fillers is particularly preferred. In this respect, the quantity of reinforcing fillers can vary from about 1 to about 10 wt.-%, and in particular, from about 2 to about 5 wt.-%.
The difference in the named overall ranges, i.e. about 2 to about 89 wt.-% is accounted for by non-reinforcing fillers.
Pyrogenically-prepared highly-disperse, silicic acids which have preferably been hydrophobized by surface treatment are preferred as reinforcing fillers. The surface treatment can be carried out, e.g. with dimethyldichlorosilane, hexamethyldisilazane, tetramethylcyclotetrasiloxane or polymethylsiloxane.
Particularly preferred non-reinforcing fillers are quartzes, cristobalites, calcium carbonate and sodium aluminium silicates which can be surface-treated. The surface treatment can generally be carried out with the same methods as described in the case of the strengthening fillers.
Optionally additives (E) like stabilizers, modifiers, dyes, pigments, thixotropic agents, flow improvers, or thinning agents, polymeric thickeners, surfactants, and diluting agent(s) can be added alone or in admixture.
The above described carbosilane containing component (A) can be used as monomer in dental compositions that are curable preferably via hydrosilylation reaction and/or metal induced cationic ring opening polymerization of epoxies.
The dental composition of the invention can be used as dental filling materials, crown and bridge materials, veneer materials, inlays or onlays.
Carbosilane containing component (A) can also be used for preparing a dental material in a process comprising the steps of
a) providing a dental composition comprising carbosilane containing component (A); b) applying the dental composition to a surface; c) curing the dental composition. The surface is usually a surface of a tooth, a crown or a bridge.
The dental compositions of the invention can be provided as a 1 part mixture or as a 2 part mixture. This usually depends on the initiator used. If the initiator is light curing, the dental composition can be provided as a 1 part mixture, if the initiator is redox curing, the dental composition should be provided as a 2 part mixture.
Therefore, the invention also relates to a kit of parts, comprising a base part (I) and a catalyst part (II), wherein the base part (I) comprises carbosilane containing component (A), unsaturated component (B1), and/or epoxy component (B2), and filler (D), and the catalyst part (II) comprises initiator (C), and wherein component (E) is present either in the base part or the catalyst part or in the base part and the catalyst part.
The dental compositions of the invention is usually packaged in a container or cartridge, preferably in a dental compule. Examples of such computes are described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,322,440 A1or 4,391,590 or 5,165,890.
The invention also relates to a method of producing a curable dental composition comprising the steps:
a) providing components (A), (B1), and/or (B2), (C), optionally (D) and optionally (E) as described above; b) mixing the components of step a), wherein compound (A) is obtainable via Grignard reaction or in situ Grignard reaction or is obtainable via hydrosilylation reaction. The Grignard reaction or in situ Grignard reaction comprises reacting (poly)organometallic functional component (i) or (poly)halogenated precursor and silicon containing component (ii) as describe above.
The hydrosilylation reaction comprises reacting poly Si�H functional carbosilane component (iv) and non silicon containing diolefinic precursor (v) as describe above.
