Effect of Sintering Conditions on Translucency of High Translucent Zirconia

Article Preview

Abstract:

Sintering of zirconia usually takes a long time. In recent years, new products with extremely short sintering time have been released. Therefore, it is useful to study in detail the effect of sintering temperature and time on translucency of zirconia. The prepared discs were sintered under four conditions; 30 minutes, 40 minutes, 50 minutes and 60 minutes as firing temperature rising time up to 1500°C. Samples were measured with a spectrophotometer and translucency parameter (TP), opalescence parameter (OP) and contrast ratio (CR) were calculated. In this study, there were no statistically significant differences between TP, OP and CR due to the differences in heating rates. There is a possibility that a heating time up to the sintering temperature does not affect translucency of zirconia.
