Creep of dental amalgam

European Journal of Oral Sciences, 1975
abstract— The steady‐state creep rates of dental amalgams were measured and the creep rates were correlated with the microstructure of the amalgams. The influence of manipulation variables on creep rate and microstructure was evaluated. The samples were either mechanically or hand triturated, hand condensed, and stored at 20°C for 7 d.

Preparation of a dental amalgam alloy from dental amalgam waste [PDF]

open access: possibleJournal of Materials Science Letters, 1984
Amalgam is universally the most used material for dental appliances. It is the result of mixing mercury with a silver-tin alloy. Dental amalgam contains about 50% mercury, 35% silver and 15% tin. Moreover it can contain smaller quantities of other substances such as copper and zinc.

Dental Amalgam: the Materials

Advances in Dental Research, 1992
The goal of this presentation is to describe the material as it is used clinically, explain why small quantities of Hg can be released, and suggest ideas for amalgams that do not release mercury. A set amalgam is a dynamic material that undergoes many microstructural changes during clinical use, related to both the elevated temperature and corrosion ...

Standards for dental amalgam

Journal of Dentistry, 1986
A recently published British Standard specification for dental amalgam alloy (BS 2938:1985) departs considerably from the previous standard published in 1961. In order to assess amalgam alloys in accordance with the new standard, it was necessary to construct several pieces of equipment.
