Chemistry
Until now, low shrinkage monomer systems, such as BIS-GMA, had to be combined with reactive thinners on account of their low viscosity. However, these thinners raise the shrinkage of the monomer matrix. A special monomer is used in Venus Diamond that combines low shrinkage with low viscosity. The use of reactive thinners is not required and so the positive properties like low shrinkage, for example, are maintained.
