Description
Summary:Alternative Ni-Cr alloys applied in dentistry of two commercial brands for ceramometal restoration were evaluated. The alloys were analyzed in the commercial and after casting conditions using experimental techniques of metallography, X-ray diffraction, superficial hardness and density. The metalografics and X-ray diffraction analysis showed that, the alloys microstructure is marked with the presence of a solid solution having an ordered face- centred cubic structure, Ni-rich austenitic (y phase) matrix, and with fine precipitates particles of secondary phases. The Vicker hardness tests showed a decrease in hardness values of the studied alloys aer casting. The alloys density values, on the other hand, did not manifest changes.
