j

45

Die-Stone

47
Q

A

shortens setting time

new nuclei centers for crystal formation are created

50
Q

Temperature and set time for gypsum products

A

Moderate increase in temp decreases set time

Also lowers solubility of hemihydrate relative to dihydrate
At 100C the solubilities are equal, no reaction occurs, plaster does not set

51
Q

time that elapses from start of mix until the mix loses its gloss and viscosity reaches a point where it will not flow into impression

52
Q

Set time for dental plaster largely under control of who

A

the manufacturer

53
Q

Factors that affect set time

Temperature
Spatulation
2% K2SO4 instead of water - accelerate set time

Q

Water beyond 18.6 ml/100 grams of product

A

excess water

55
Q

What has greatest quantity of excess water = more voids, less compressive strength

What has least excess water

A

Plaster

High strength dental stone

56
Q

What has the greatest effect on compressive strength regardless of plaster/stone type

A

water/powder ratio

different stones have about the same compressive strength when mixed with same water/powder ratio

57
Q

Vacuum mixing has what effect

A

slightly improves compressive strength of dental stone

58
Q

Wet strength

Dry strength

A

strength measured when excess water remains in the hardened

Dry - all excess water driven out

59
Q

How much stronger is dry strength than wet

A

Twice as strong

60
Q

How long after mixing and pouring until hardened gypsum appears to have reached max strength
Real time

A

1-2 hours

Actual time is about 7 days for excess water to leave

61
Q

The effect of drying on compressive strength

At what values of weight loss from water does compressive strength change/not change

A

up to 7%, not a lot of change in compressive strength

When 7.5% + of excess water/weight loss, compressive strength increases sharply

62
Q

What happens when last trace of water is lost

A

fine crystals of gypsum precipitate, serve as anchors between larger crystals
These are first to go when water is added again

Q

Abrasion or wear

A

removal of material that occurs when surfaces slide across or against each other

Two body abrasion

Q

Hardness and wear resistance

A

Surface hardness is a poor predictor of material wear

69
Q

Abrasion resistance or wear resistance influenced by

A
Strength
Surface hardness and roughness
third-body wear particle size
Mode of fracture (ductile vs. brittle material)
Applied force
70
Q

Attempt to increase hardness and scratch resistance by embedding epoxy resins or light cured dimethacrylate resins

A

but differences in abrasion resistance in these have not been established

71
Q

Surface of set gypsum is what

A

porous microscopically

electroplated or epoxy dies generally provide better surface detail than gypsum dies

72

75% of expansion of gypsum ovserved when

A

in first hour of setting

73
Q

order of water and powder

A

water first, then powder

74
