product specs for those materials.

Thanks.



A lab would be better-equipped to tell you the good brands of lab equipment.
As far as composite resin, they are a class of acrylics--specifically bis-GMA resin. The resin itself has significant mechanical shortcomings as a restorative material, such as polymerization shrinkage and wear. These shortcomings are ameliorated too some extent by the addition of fillers--usually quartz particles, somemtimes glass. There are also catalysts that promote polymerization, most of which now are light-activated.
If you google dental resin or bis-GMA composite resin, I'm sure you'll get links to many proprietary websites. Don't know how helpful they'll be with particular specifics of the products. But most of these vary only by degree--for instance the percentage of filler in the mix and the size and shape of the filler particles.
