Abstract

Sorption and solubility of liners is encountered during clinical use resulting in loss of resiliency. Ufi Gel (silicon based) and Permasoft (acrylic based) were investigated. Soft liner discs were fabricated for testing water sorption and solubility. Sorption and solubility were tested after 3 months of storage in distilled water. Silicone based liner showed lower water sorption and solubility.
