Abstract
The present describes a curable composition for dental impression comprising: a curable base composition and a surfactant system comprising a first surfactant, which is at least one compound having the formula (I) and a second surfactant, which works synergistically with the second surfactant so as to permit the composition to surprisingly have a lower contact angle; these results are reached with relatively low concentrations of biodegradable surfactants.
