A number of new liquid urethane-based oligomers were synthesized, characterized and used to formulate the dental composites. Compressive strength and viscosity were used as a screen tool to evaluate the formed composites. Commercial available bisphenol A glycidyl methacrylate and urethane dimethacrylate-based systems were used as controls. Degree of conversion, shrinkage, water-sorption, solubility, flexural strength and diametrial tensile strength were evaluated. The results show that using mixed acrylate/methacrylate or methacrylates with different length to derivatize diisocyanates could be...
