Corrosion behavior and microhardness of three amalgams

Abstract: – The marginal microhardness of three different types of amalgam was tested after 2 months' immersion in an aqueous solution of NaCl (85 mM) and phosphates (Na2HPO4 100 mM and NaH2PO4 100 mM). Amalgams immersed in distilled water were used as controls. The microhardness tests were conducted at a distance of 50 μm from the margins and at the bulk of each specimen. The solutions were analyzed for Sn, Cu, Zn, Ag, and Hg by means of atomic absorption spectrophotometry (AAS). A statistically significant reduction … Show more

“…According to Patsurakos & Moberg (1988), SEM studies showed the grain boundaries on the amalgam surface. The SEM micrographs revealed that all of the amalgam samples were corroded in PBS solutions pH 3·5 and 6·5 and Permite‐C ® containing indium and Logic ® containing platinum had smoother surfaces when compared with the others.…”

“…1975). Patsurakos & Moberg (1988, 1990) have reported that copper release was different in the amalgams with high copper content. In the present study it was determined that the copper release in the low copper‐containing amalgams was higher than that of high copper‐containing amalgams.…”
