The original protocol for implant prosthesis recommends the use of a gold framework for acrylic and ceramic prosthesis. However, due to its high cost, the use of alternative alloys is desired. This study compares the marginal accuracy of pre-made cylinders versus plastic cylinders cast with two different base metal casting alloys. Five samples each of (1) plastic cylinder cast in cobalt-chromiu...

The effects of fluoride concentrations and pH on the corrosion behavior of pure titanium, Ti-6Al-4V, Ti-6Al-7Nb alloys and a new Ti alloy adding palladium, which is expected to promote a repassivation of Ti were examined by anodic polarization and corrosion potential measurements. The amount of dissolved Ti was analyzed by inductively coupled plasma mass spectroscopy. The surface of the specime...

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM It is not known whether different high-palladium alloys of similar composition possess comparable tensile strength properties associated with connector soldering. PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the tensile strength properties of 2 high-palladium alloys on soldered connectors under simulated pre-ceramic and post-ceramic soldering conditions. MATERIAL A...

FeRh alloys doped with the third element exhibit a change in lattice and magnetic subsystems, which are manifested antiferromagnetic- ferromagnetic (AFM-FM) first-order phase transition temperature, shrinkage of temperate hysteresis under transition, reduction saturation magnetization. All aforementioned parameters crucial for practical applications. To control them it is quite important to det...

The present study aimed to provide guidance for the selection of prosthodontic materials and the management of patients with a suspected metal allergy. This included a comparison of the sensitivity of patients to alloys used in prescribed metal‑containing prostheses, and correlation analysis between metal allergy and accompanying clinical symptoms of sensitized patients using a patch test. The ...
