Indication Primary impressions for the double-impression technique in conjunction with Dentstar AV-Quick Light. Classification Dentstar AV Putty meets the requirements of:    ISO 4823:1992 (E) Type 0: very high consistency - putty    DIN 13913-A1: Impression material General Dentstar AV Putty is a knedable precision impression material based on addition curing vinyl silicone. It is a hydrophilic and compatible with moist surfaces, easy to mix and not sticky. Storage The shelf life is at least 3 years, when stored at 23 °C (74 °F). Note: Do not store above 25 °C (78 °F) Precautions Do not use latex gloves! Recommended are gloves based on PVC or polyethylene. Do not use with standard (condensation reaction type) silicone impression materials. Do not interchange lids of jars or spoons! Dispensing and mixing Use equal parts in volume or weight of base paste and catalyst paste (at room temperature and normal humidity). Take the base paste with the coloured spoon and the catalyst with the white spoon. Knead the components with the fingertips at least for 45 seconds until the colour is homogenous. Note: After use close the jars immediately! Impression Taking In order to improve adhasion of Dentstar AV Putty to the tray ADHESIVE should be applied as a thin even film. Dry for 3 minutes. The ready kneaded material is loaded into the prepared tray. Insert the loaded tray in the mouth not later then 2 minutes after start of mix. This position should be mainteined for at least 3 minutes. Then the tray can be taken out. Desinfection Impressions can be desinfected with standard desinfection solutions. Electroplating Impressions can be copper- or silverplated. Casting The impression should be stored at normal room temperature (max 25 °C / 78 °F). The impression can be poured 30 minutes after removal from the mouth (for ex. Moldano/BAYER). There are no other time limitations.    Standard  Soft  Mixing time  45 sec  45 sec  Total working time (incl. mixing time)  2 min  2 min  Setting time  3,5 min  4,0 min  Dimentional change after 24h  0,1% max  0,1% max  Compression set  0,5% max  0,6% max  Recovery from deformation  99,5% min  99,4% min  Strain in compression  2,2%  2,6% Note: Times mentioned are valid for room temperature 23 °C (74 °F) and normal humidity of 50%.
