32
What causes the linear expansion of calcium sulfate dihydrate during the setting reaction?
a) The growth and pushing of the dihydrate crystals.
33
2 things happen when dental stone & plaster is setting:
Volumetric contraction: volume of calcium sulfate dihydrate formed is ~7%
less than the sum of volumes of calcium sulfate hemihydrate & water
○ Linear expansion: caused by growth and pushing action of the calcium
sulfate dihydrate crystals, results in porous material
34
Volumetric contraction:
volume of calcium sulfate dihydrate formed is ~7%
less than the sum of volumes of calcium sulfate hemihydrate & water
35
Linear expansion:
caused by growth and pushing action of the calcium
sulfate dihydrate crystals, results in porous material
36
Key concept in setting rxn of calcium sulfate 3
○ EXOTHERMIC
○ Water temp & solubilities
○ There is a definition
Temperature generated is equal to that used to heat during calcination
● Rxn takes place regardless of how the gypsum is being used
37
.Both irreversible and reversible hydrocolloids exude a liquid on their surface after setting which is partially water but has a different pH. This phenomenon is called:
Syneresis
38
where do you see hygroscopic expansion and syneresis
hydrocolloid impressions
39
Syneresis
excludes water on surface
Not pure water b/c pH is different
○ Gel shrinks
40
where can you find syneresis
agar and hydrocolloid impressions
41
If dental plaster/stone is left to set under water, what will happen?
Hygroscopic expansion. More water = more crystal growth, less surface tension
42
Hygroscopic expansion
the expansion that occurs if rxn is allowed to occur under water
○ Used w/ investment material for greater expansion
greater than the amount of expansion in air bc of constant supply of H2O
allowing additional crystal growth
43
What do you isolate to get a digital impression?
An ISOLITE, you would NOT use a rubber dam!
44
Which phase directly affects the mechanical and optical properties of all
ceramics??
The amount of crystalline phase
45
In the setting reaction of irreversible alginates, trisodium phosphate, sodium pyrophosphate, and tetrasodium pyrophosphate are able to expand the “working time” to allow for thorough mixing, loading the tray, and seating of the tray. As a group they are referred to as:
retarders
46
what is a retarder
Retarder: keeps “reactor” busy so it does NOT immediately combine w/ the
alginate sol’n
once retarder is used -> CaSO4 combines with soln to form gel
47
Isolation is necessary when taking a frame scan (YES/NO)
YES. need surfaces of teeth dry and free of shit
48
All of the following will decrease the set time of dental plaster/stone EXCEPT: a) Decrease the water powder ratio.
Hygroscopic expansion. More water = more crystal growth, less surface
tension
b) Increase the mixing time and mixing speed.
c) Use slurry water.
d) Use very hot water (near boiling). Boiling solubilities of hemi and di are
equal
d) Use very hot water (near boiling). Boiling solubilities of hemi and di are
equal
49
Best way to decrease setting time of plaster stone
decrease setting time -> increase speed of set BEST WAY!!!
increase the speed and temp of mix
50
When dispensing elastomeric impressions materials, it is essential to dispense equal volumes of the materials.
FALSE
Base and accelerator: mix out equal LENGTHS, not volume
51
take an impression & their blood from the gingiva gets on it & you do NOT rinse
it out... What will this do to the setting time of the stone?
● Leave debris (from body or whatever) increases set time, so clean it (takes longer)
o Sets slower/increase setting time
52
How do you influence the set time of alginate?
Hot water = decreases set time so it sets faster
○ Cold water = increases set time so it sets slower
53

used near metals (implants) not in military
55

62
The major reason for removing the impression from the cast shortly after it is completely set is:
To prevent the imbibing of moisture from the cast by the drying, shrinking
alginate.
63
The preferred way to control the dimensional stability of both Reversible and
Irreversible Hydrocolloids, prior to pouring up the impression, is to:
put in wet paper towel
If an impression cannot be poured up immediately: best thing to do is wrap impression in wet paper towel soaked in cold water
