“…In the initial condition, such machineable, bluish blocks show moderate hardness and strength (around 130 MPa); consequently, they are easier to mill, reducing wear of the machining devices at the same time, with evident advantages during chairside procedures [12]. After milling, heat treatment (840–850° for 10 min) determines full crystallization of the material: lithium metasilicates tend to evolve to form lithium disilicates (70%) [13], increasing the flexure strength up to 262 ± 88 MPa [14] with a fracture toughness of 2.5 MPa·m 1/2 [15]. Compared to the e.max CAD, hot-pressed lithium disilicate exhibits better mechanical properties, like higher flexure strength (440 MPa) and fracture toughness (2.75 MPa·m 1/2 - IPS e.max Press, Ivoclar Vivadent) [16].…”

“…The intensities of the three highest peaks (23.8°, 24.4°, and 24.9°) represent the crystallographic planes of lithium silicate. The glazed HP ceramics, in which the 2θ scale ranges from 13° to 38°, shows a widely distributed "hump", which represents the amorphous phase (20).…”

“…In this context, lithium disilicate (Li 2 Si 2 O 5 ) glasses have been extensively used for investigating the crystallization kinetics and thermal, mechanical, and electrical properties of the resulting glassceramics [5][6][7][8][9]. Lithium-disilicate-based glass-ceramics have commercial significance and have been widely used in dental restoration, armor material, hard disc substrates, and other high-tech applications owing to their good processability and mechanical performance [10][11][12][13][14].…”
