Definitions
- ABSTRACT A corrosion resistant precision casting alloy'particularly suitable for use as a dental alloy comprises essentially, by weight, 15.0 to 25.0 percent chromium, 3.0 to 6.0 percent molybdenum, 1.0 to 4.0 percent tin, 0.5 to 1.5 percent manganese, 0.5 to 5.0 percent copper, 1.0 to 4.0 percent silicon, up to 1.0 percent aluminum, up to 1.0 percent cobalt, up to 0.2 percent carbon and the balance nickel.
- Prior Art Metals and metal alloys are used extensively in restorative and corrective dentistry for removable restorations, inlays, crowns and bridges, orthodontic appliances, and the like.
- Dental alloys must meet stringent physical and chemical requirements. First, the chemical nature of the alloy must be such that no harmful physiological effects are produced on the patient or the operator. The alloy must be stainless and resistant to attack bythe various acid and alkaline substances naturally present in the mouth and in foods and beverages. It must be capable of being fabricated into the desired dental appliances by dentists and technicians and yet must be hard enoughand strong enough to resist wear and deformation in use, and it must be capable of being cast to form precision castings free of inclusions, blow holes and other defects.
- Gold alloys were originally the most widely used and useful of the dental alloys. However, the high cost and scarcity of gold led to the development of dental alloys comprising predominantly cobalt and chromium with minor amounts of tungsten, nickel and other metals. These cobalt-chromium base dental alloys are exemplified by those disclosed in US. Pat. Nos. 1,961,626 and 2,134,423 to Enrique G. Touceda. More recent work has led to the development of dental alloys comprising predominantly nickel and chromium with minor amounts of molybdenum, iron, copper and other metals. These newer nickel-chromium base dental alloys are exemplified by the alloy disclosed in US. Pat. No. 2,597,495 to Jackson and Simmons. All of these prior dental alloys possess to a greater or lesser extent the characteristics required of such alloys as previously discussed. However, none possesses all of the required characteristics to the optimum-extent, and research and development of new dental alloys with improved characteristics is constantly taking place.
- the improved corrosion resistant alloy of the invention comprises essentially, by weight, 15.0 to 25 percent chromium, 3.0 to 6.0 percent molybdenum, 1.0 to 4.0 percent tin, 0.5 to 1.5 percent manganese, 0.5 to 5.0 percent copper, 1.0 to 4.0 percent silicon, up to 1.0 percent aluminum, up to 1.0 percent cobalt, up to 0.2 percent carbon and the balance (52.3 to 79.0 percent) nickel.
- the resulting alloy is capable of being cast to form precision castings that are free of inclusions, blow to work while possessingadequate strength and hardness.
- the corrosion resistant alloy of our invention consists predominantly of nickel and chromium with minor but significant amounts of other metals that modify the physical properties (for example, its fusion point, hardness and workability) of the basic alloy composition.
- the proportion of nickel to chromium in the basic alloy composition may range from about 2:1 to about 5:1, and in the preferred composition is about 3.5:l.
- Nickel is the major component of the alloy and is employed for its inherent resistance to corrosion.
- Chromium, the other predominant component of the basic alloy composition enhances the corrosion resistance of the alloy and also is a solid solution/precipitationhardener.
- the alloy may contain small amounts of cobalt and aluminum, the latter as a deoxidizer and precipitation hardener, and a very small amount of carbon is usually present in the alloy.
- the alloy of the invention contains a small but significant amount of tin which greatly improves the fluidity of the molten alloy and also contributes to the strength and hardness of the cast alloy without unduly reducing the elongation of the alloy.
- the alloy composition of the invention should contain 15 to 25 percent'by weight chromium, 3.0 to 6.0 percent by weight molybdenum, 1.0 to 4.0 percent by weight tin, 0.5 to 1.5 percent by weight manganese, 0.5 to 5.0 percent byweight copper, 1.0 to 4.0 percent by weight silicon, up to 2.0 percent by weight aluminum, up to 1.0 percent by weight cobalt, up to 0.2 percent by weight carbon and the balance (about 52.3 to 79.0 percent by weight) nickel.
- tin is an essential constituent thereof.
- a corrosion resistant alloy which contains the aforementioned components in the amounts specified may be readily cast to produce precision castings that may be easily finished and that have the necessary strength and hardness for the applications intended.
- the presence of tin in the alloy composition effects a significant improvement in these essential characteristics.
- a base alloy composition comprising 68.25 parts by weight nickel, 20.0 parts by weight chromium, 4.5 parts by weight molybdenum and 1.25 parts by weight manganese was prepared by melting the substantially pure components in a crucible under an inert atmosphere,
- the alloy shape that was allowed to air-cool in its investment mold had a Rockwell B hardness of 83, and 0.2 percent yield strength of 49,500 psi and a maximum elongation of 13 percent.
- the alloy had a Rockwell B hardness of 82, and 0.2 percent yield strength of 42,500 psi and a maximum elongation of 17 percent. Further reductions in the Rockwell B hardness and the 0.2 percent yield strength to values of 80 and 42,000 psi respectively accompanied by an increase in the maximum elongation to 25 percent were accomplished by annealing of the alloy shape at 2,000F.
- the aluminum serving as a deoxidizer and precipitation hardening'agent.
- Other melts of the alloy were modified by the inclusion therein of up to 2.0 percent by weight aluminum and up to 1.0 percent by weight cobalt. Some alloy melts contained up to 0.2 percent by weight carbon. All possessed the improved physical properties characteristic of the alloy compositions of the invention.
- a corrosion resistant, hot workable and hardenable precision casting alloy consisting essentially, by weight
