light curing

Light curing is a process that is commonly used in dentistry and plastics processing. In photocuring, a material, such as a dental filler or a plastic adhesive, is cured by exposure to light.

In dentistry, light curing is often used to create plastic dental fillings or splints. The materials are applied to the tooth and then cured with a special lamp. This process ensures that the material hardens and forms a strong bond with the tooth.

In plastics processing, light curing is used to join plastics such as Plexiglas. A special adhesive is applied to the surfaces to be connected and then cured with a UV lamp. This results in a strong, long-lasting bond between surfaces.

Light curing is a fast and effective process that allows precise curing of materials. It is used in many different industries and has helped create a wide variety of materials and products.
