Abstract

the main goal of this present investigation is to study the effect of the (Al2O3) addition on corrosion resistance and dimensional change of the high copper dental amalgam. One alloy has been prepared via casting composed of silver (47%), tin (30%), copper (22%), and zinc (1%). (Al2O3) addition is added in distinct percentages of the (0.5, 1, 1.5, 2) wt.%. Specimens were prepared according to ADA specification No. 1. The specimens have been stored at 37±1 C° using a chamber prepared for this purpose. corrosion resistance improved with addition from 0.5% to 2% (Al2O3) and observed that dimensional change of amalgam improved after (Al2O3) additions.
