A technique has been developed to measure the pressure at the surface and center of a mass of polymerizing polymethyl methacrylate. The center of a polymerized specimen of polymethyl methacrylate has been shown to be at a lower pressure than the outer surface when processed in either gypsum molds or the air-pressure chamber. Lower central pressures do not appear to be directly associated with the production of porosity. The rate of heating has a direct relationship to the presence of porosity.
