Abstract:

. The paper present aspects about the obtaining of non-precious dental alloys (type CoCrMo and CoCrMoSi7), the determination of chemical composition by optical emission spectrometry and the experimental tests for determining the tensile strength, made on standard plate samples. The base material used in experiments was a commercial alloy, from CoCrMo system, which belongs to the class of dental non-precious alloys, intended to medical applications. The obtaining of studied alloy was made on arc re-melting installation, under vacuum, type MRF ABJ 900. The process followed to realize a rapid melting, with a maximum admissible current intensity. The samples for tests were obtained by casting in an electric arc furnace, under vacuum, in optimal conditions for melting and solidification and processing by electro-erosion, to eliminate all the disturbing factors which come by processing conditions for the samples. The determination of chemical composition for cobalt based alloys, by optical emission spectrometry, was made on SpectromaxX equipment with spark. The electrical discharge is made with the elimination of an energy quantity, fact which determine plasma forming and light issue. Tensile tests for standard samples, made from cobalt based alloy, was made on Instron 3382 testing machine, and assisted by computer. The obtained results are: elongation, elasticity modulus, tensile strength and offer complete information about the analyzed mechanical properties. For the certitude of obtained experimental results, the tests were made on samples with specific dimensions according ISO 6892-1:2009(E) standard, both for the tensile strength, and also machine operation.
