Book Ion Exchange Strengthening of a Leucite Reinforced Dental Ceramic

Download or read book Ion Exchange Strengthening of a Leucite Reinforced Dental Ceramic written by Jose J. Villalobos and published by . This book was released on 1997-07-01 with total page 93 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Demand for improved dental esthetics has led to an increased use of ceramics in dentistry, specifically all-ceramic restorations. Unfortunately, the brittle characteristics of dental ceramics remain an area of concern and limit their applications. Metal-ceramic restorations have proven successful, but problems associated with the use of metal substructures exist. Numerous all- ceramic systems have been introduced, however strengths equivalent to metal- ceramic restorations have not been obtained. As a result, strengthening techniques are being actively investigated.

Book Mechanical Properties of Ceramics

Download or read book Mechanical Properties of Ceramics written by Joshua Pelleg and published by Springer Science & Business. This book was released on 2014-04-22 with total page 782 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses the mechanical properties of ceramics and aims to provide both a solid background for undergraduate students, as well as serving as a text to bring practicing engineers up to date with the latest developments in this topic so they can use and apply these to their actual engineering work. Generally, ceramics are made by moistening a mixture of clays, casting it into desired shapes and then firing it to a high temperature, a process known as 'vitrification'. The relatively late development of metallurgy was contingent on the availability of ceramics and the know-how to mold them into the appropriate forms. Because of the characteristics of ceramics, they offer great advantages over metals in specific applications in which hardness, wear resistance and chemical stability at high temperatures are essential. Clearly, modern ceramics manufacturing has come a long way from the early clay-processing fabrication method, and the last two decades have seen the development of sophisticated techniques to produce a large variety of ceramic material. The chapters of this volume are ordered to help students with their laboratory experiments and guide their observations in parallel with lectures based on the current text. Thus, the first chapter is devoted to mechanical testing. A chapter of ductile and superplastic ceramic is added to emphasize their role in modern ceramics (chapter 2). These are followed by the theoretical basis of the subject. Various aspects of the mechanical properties are discussed in the following chapters, among them, strengthening mechanisms, time dependent and cyclic deformation of ceramics. Many practical illustrations are provided representing various observations encountered in actual ceramic-structures of particularly technical significance. A comprehensive list of references at the end of each chapter is included in this textbook to provide a broad basis for further studying the subject. The work also contains a unique chapter on a topic not discussed in other textbooks on ceramics concerning nanosized ceramics. This work will also be useful as a reference for materials scientists, not only to those who specialize in ceramics.

Book The Science and Art of Dental Ceramics   Volume I

Download or read book The Science and Art of Dental Ceramics Volume I written by John W. McLean and published by Quintessenz Verlag. This book was released on 2019-09-11 with total page 575 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a no more rewarding experience in restorative dentistry than to duplicate to perfection the colour, texture and surface anatomy of the human tooth. Dental porcelain is the closest match to tooth enamel of all our restorative materials but is perhaps the most difficult to use in dental practice. A study of the science of dental porcelain will enable the dentist or technician to perfect his art since it develops an increasing awareness of the fundamental problems in construction. Preparation design, the stresses developing in porcelain restorations, the influence of opaque backgrounds on colour, surface reflectivity and light transmission in crowns are some of the complex factors that influence the success of a porcelain veneer restoration. A survey of metals, bonding systems, cements and impression materials will enable the clinician to select his materials with greater confidence. New research on the shoulder preparation for the veneer crown also sheds light on the controversy of the bevel versus the butt joint. The author has attempted to rationalise the use of both metal and alumina reinforced ceramics and to show how no ingle system can be applied universally if optimum aesthetics is to be achieved.

Book Chemical Strengthening of Ceramic Materials

Download or read book Chemical Strengthening of Ceramic Materials written by and published by . This book was released on 1966 with total page 139 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An investigation of the effect of compressive surface layers on the strength of polycrystalline ceramic bodies is described. Low expansion surface layers were formed on conventional ceramics by chemical reactions at high temperatures. Failure, by shearing of the surface layers, was prevented by establishing gradual variations in composition within the body. Chemical strengthening was attempted with alumina, titania, spinel, magnesia, forsterite, steatite, nickel oxide, silica and cordierite bodies and was achieved with several of these materials. Glazing and quenching also resulted in improved flexural strength. Combined processes involving chemical strengthening, atmospheric treatments, glazing and quenching were investigated. In some cases strength increases of more than 90% were observed. The thermal shock resistance of some of the samples was improved. Abrasion of the surfaces of some of the treated samples did not result in loss of strength. (Author).

Book Handbook of Ceramics Grinding   Polishing

Download or read book Handbook of Ceramics Grinding Polishing written by Ioan D. Marinescu and published by William Andrew. This book was released on 2000-01-01 with total page 501 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Focusing on the machining of ceramic materials such as silicon nitride, silicon carbide, and zirconia, this handbook meets the growing need in industry for a clear understanding of modern improvements in ceramic processing. The presentation is international in scope, with techniques and information represented from the USA, Japan, Germany, and the United Kingdomùcountries that have made important contributions to the field. The 20 expert chapter authors explore the challenge of reducing the costs of machining operations, a continuing problem in an industry where ceramic parts must be machined into final form to achieve a proper fit. The handbook reveals that the abrasive machining of ceramic materials will always be a requirement because of the difficulty of controlling parts dimensions at the high temperatures required in their creation. The contributors then explain the properties and characteristics of ceramics, the various types of abrasive processes, and typical tests used in the procedures. An entire section of the handbook concerns grinding tools, their conditioning, lubrication, and cooling, checking for wear on the tools, and using them efficiently. The book also examines modern honing and superfinishing tools and machines, and describes advances in the technology, as well as lapping and polishing techniques using chemical compounds and ultrasound.Ceramics is a field where more advanced products are sure to appear. Many of the products will require advanced, better-controlled processing technologies; vastly improved productivity in manufacturing; and increased product reliability. The contributors to this Handbook will assist readers in the attainment of these important goals.
