Abstract

In this study. we have intended to control the properties of surface reaction zone generated between pure titanium and oxide investment moulds. Commercially pure titanium was centrifugally casted and silica$.$alumina based phosphate bonded investment was used as the mould material. The effect of cooling methods after casting on the surface reaction zone and mechanical properties of casts were investigated. The resulting casts showed the multilayered surface reaction zone regardless of cooling method. Especially. water cooling method produced the titanium casts with thinner surface reaction zone. weaker strength. and higher elongation properties compared to air cooling. It can thus be known that the resulting casts had satisfactory mechanical properties as dental materials. From these results, the cooling rate dependence of interfacial and mechanical properties can be attributed to the diffusion of oxygen from casting environment, which control the reaction of titanium and mould.

순수티타늄과 산화물계 주형재의 표변반응층을 제어하는 방법을 제시하기 위하여 치과용 인산염계 실리카·알루미나 주형재에 CP-Ti를 원심주조법으로 주조하고, 주조 후 냉각방법에 따른 치과용 티타늄 주조체의 표면반응층 및 기계적 특성에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 주조체는 주조 후 냉각방법에 관계없이 다층구조의 표면 반응층을 보였으며, 특히 수냉 방법이 공냉에 비해 표면반응층의 두께가 얇게 형성되었고, 강도는 약하고 연신율은 높게 나타나서, 치과용주조체로 만족할만한 기계적 성질을 얻을 수 있었다. 이러한 결과는, 용해분위기에서 산소의 침입과 주조시 주형재의 반응을 주도하는 냉각속도의 차이에 기인하는 것으로 판단된다.
