Abstract

Gold alloys that can be hardened by thermal ageing play an important role in dentistry. But the ordering and precipitation phenomena responsible for hardening are complex and not fully understood. In this comprehensive survey of the field, the author shows that transmission electron microscopy coupled with electron diffraction measurements is a powerful tool for studying age-hardening mechanisms in dental gold alloys.
