Studies on White Crown-and-Bridge Alloys,

Abstract

Mechanical properties, compositions, microstructures and heat-treatment characteristics of two white ceramic-metal alloys (P-G and P-D) were studied. It was determined that P-D was a gold-palladium based material. Major components of P-G were gold, palladium and silver. Microstructures of the alloys differed markedly. P-D exhibited superior strength properties, whereas, P-G had greater ductility. Hardening and strengthening of the alloys could be related to the formation of base metal (gallium or nickel) containing precipitates. (Author)
