Figure 1. Tensile strengths of the experimental composites and the commercial composite (PCA). The tensile strength of the composites containing a filler modified with 1F/3-MPS or 4F/3-MPS showed no significant decrease after 1800 days' water storage or thermal stress (p < 0.05).

Figure 2. Water sorption of the experimental composites and the commercial composite (PCA) during the 90-day storage period (according to ADA specification No. 27). There was no significant difference in water absorption between the 3-MPS composite and various silane-mixture composites (p < 0.05).
