A new self-polymerized AuNP-PMMA composite has been prepared and subjected to dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA). The tests were performed on the basis of the Young’s Modulus’ approximation to investigate the viscoelasticity and the thermal conductivity of rectangular and cylindrical test specimens. The thermal conductivity of the samples was conducted over a physiologic temperature range (0 to70 oC). The results indicated that the gold nanoparticles fillers have potential as added components in denture bases to provide increased thermal diffusivity and well enhanced viscoelastic responses, which could lead to more dental patient satisfaction
