Evaluation of the seal of various amalgam products used as root-end fillings.
Different formulations of amalgam have physical properties that may make them behave differently in the often-contaminated root end environment. Five different brands of amalgam were evaluated for microleakage of root-end fillings placed in extracted human teeth. These included a zinc-free spherical amalgam, a zinc-free admixture amalgam, two zinc-containing admixture amalgams, and a zinc-containing lathe-cut amalgam. The amalgams were placed either into dry root-end preparations or into preparations contaminated with human blood. The fluid filtration method was used to measure microleakage at 1, 2, 4, 8, 12, and 24 wk after placement. Analysis of variance revealed significant differences in the rates of microleakage at every measurement period. Scheffé's test showed that the zinc-free spherical amalgam had significantly greater leakage than all the other products evaluated. There were no significant differences between any of the other products. Blood contamination did not adversely affect the seal of any amalgam.

Alloy particle shape and sensitivity of high-copper amalgams to manipulative variables.
Compressive strength, dimensional change during hardening and residual mercury content of three high-copper spherical particle amalgams (Tytin, Logic and Valiant), two admix amalgams (Dispersalloy and Permite C) and a conventional lathe-cut amalgam (New True Dentalloy) were determined as a function of condensation pressure and trituration time. The properties of the three amalgams containing non-spherical particles were markedly dependent on condensation pressure in the range 3 MPa to 14 MPa. Specimens condensed at 3 MPa showed substantially lower strength, greater expansion during hardening and higher residual mercury contents than did specimens condensed at 14 MPa. The three high-copper spherical particle amalgams, on the other hand, were comparatively insensitive to condensation pressure. Variations in trituration time between 5 and 12 seconds had little effect on the properties of any of the amalgams.

Release of mercury vapor from corroding amalgam in vitro.
The release of mercury vapor was determined from eleven different amalgams exposed to externally induced corrosion by galvanic contact with a dental casting gold alloy. The electrolyte was an artificial saliva solution at 37 degrees C. The corrosion rates of the amalgams could be divided into two groups corresponding to the grouping into conventional and high-copper materials. The mercury release rate decreased during the 24 h test period for all the amalgams except one containing indium. There was no significant difference in the total mercury release between the conventional and high-copper amalgams as groups. The same applied for the individual products, except the one containing indium, which released significantly more mercury vapor than the two products with the lowest release.

Fracture toughness determination of dental amalgams through microindentation.
A microindentation technique was used to study and estimate the fracture toughness of six amalgams. A significant difference is observed between fracture toughness at the bulk and the margin of amalgams. All amalgams show significant differences in fracture toughness as a function of distance from the margin. Microindentation measurement of fracture toughness appears to be an effective method of evaluating the localized brittleness of amalgams.

Effect of oxygen on the corrosion of dental amalgam.
The anodic and cathodic polarization of five dental amalgams were determined as a function of oxygen concentration in Ringer's solution and artificial saliva. The results indicate an anodic polarization behaviour dependent on Cl ion concentration and a corrosion potential determined primarily by oxygen concentration. At high oxygen concentrations the corrosion rates of traditional and copper enriched amalgams were equivalent.
