Q

According to Phillips science of dental materials,

What is a thixotropic material?

A

Property of gels and other fluids to become less viscous and flow when subjected to steady shear forces through being shaken, stirred, squeezed, patted, or vibrated. When the shear force is decreased to zero, the viscosity increases to the original value. Also known as shear thinning, in which the greater the applied shear force, the less the resistance to flow

37
Q

According to Phillips science of dental materials,

What is Toughness?

A

According to Phillips science of dental materials,

What is yield strength?

A

The stress at which a test specimen exhibits a specific amount of plastic strain.

39
Q

According to Phillips science of dental materials,

What happens to a material when stress is applied to a material that is below the proportional limit, and the stress is removed?

A

It will return to original shape as below the proportional limit only elastic deformation occurs

40
Q

According to Phillips science of dental materials,

What happens to a material when stress is applied to a material that is beyond the proportional limit, and the stress is removed?

A

It will not return to it’s original form as some plastic deformation will have occurred.
