연구 목적: 본 연구는 치과영역에서 많이 사용되는 비귀금속 합금인 니켈-크롬 합금을 산소-아세틸렌 불꽃 납착법과 적외선 용접법을 이용해 용접하고 용접부 및 그 주변을 광학 현미경과 EPMA (Electron Probe Micro Analyzer, 전자미세현미분석기)를 통해 관찰하여 용접방법이 금속의 성상(性狀)에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 연구 재료 및 방법: 니켈-크롬 합금을 이용하여 3.0 mm 직경, 30 mm 길이의 시편을 제작하였다. 시편은 산소-아세틸렌 불꽃 납착법, 적외선 용접법의 두 개의 그룹으로 분류하였다(n=4). 시편을 low-speed disc로 자른 후 각각을 산소-아세틸렌 토치와 적외선 용접기를 이용해 용접하였다. 용접과 마무리 후에 시편을 광학현미경으로 용접부, 5 mm 떨어진 지점, 10 mm 떨어진 지점의 3개 부위에서 관찰하고EPMA를 이용하여 분석하였다. 결과: 광학 현미경 관찰 결과 용접부에서는 두 방법 모두 다수의 파절선이 관찰되었고, 10.0 mm 떨어진 거리에서는 두 방법 모두 시편의 표면에서 파절선이 발견되지 않았으나 5.0 mm 떨어진 거리에서는 적외선 용접법에서는 시편의 표면이 다소 거칠기는 했으나 파절선은 발견되지 않았고 산소-아세틸렌 불꽃 납착 표면에서는 다수의 파절선이 관찰되었다. EPMA분석에서 적외선 용접법에 의한 방법에서는 용접부위, 5.0 mm 떨어진 부위, 10.0 mm 떨어진 부위 모두에서 시편 금속의 구성성분 비율이 제조사의 구성성분 비율과 10.0%이내의 오차를 나타내었고, 산소-아세틸렌 불꽃 납착법에서는 5.0, 10.0 mm에서는 시편금속의 구성성분이 10.0%이내의 오차를 나타내었으나, 납착 부위에서는 Ni만이 검출되어 적외선 용접법과는 차이를 나타내었다. 이와 같은 분석결과를 살펴 볼 때 적외선 용접을 시행한 시편의 구성 성분이 모금속의 성분과 유사한 것 을알수있었다. 결론: 이상의 결과로 산소-아세틸렌 불꽃 납착법보다 적외선 용접법을 이용할 때, 금속의 결함 및 성분의 변화가 적어서 좀 더 우수한 금속 보철물의 제작이 가능할 것으로 사료된다.

PURPOSE. The present study was intended to evaluate the effect of soldering techniques with infrared ray and gas torch under different gap distances (0.3 mm and 0.5 mm) on the tensile strength and surface porosity formation in Ni-Cr base metal alloy. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Thirty five dumbbell shaped Ni-Cr alloy specimens were prepared and assigned to 5 groups according to the soldering method and the gap distance. For the soldering methods, gas torch (G group) and infrared ray (IR group) were compared and each group was subdivided by corresponding gap distance (0.3 mm: G3 and IR3, 0.5 mm: G5, IR5). Specimens of the experimental groups were sectioned in the middle with a diamond disk and embedded in solder blocks according to the predetermined distance. As a control group, 7 specimens were prepared without sectioning or soldering. After the soldering procedure, a tensile strength test was performed using universal testing machine at a crosshead speed 1 mm/min. The proportions of porosity on the fractured surface were calculated on the images acquired through the scanning electronic microscope. RESULTS. Every specimen of G3, G5, IR3 and IR5 was fractured on the solder joint area. However, there was no significant difference between the test groups (P > .05). There was a negative correlation between porosity formation and tensile strength in all the specimens in the test groups (P < .05). CONCLUSION. There was no significant difference in ultimate tensile strength of joints and porosity formations between the gas-oxygen torch soldering and infrared ray soldering technique or between the gap distance of 0.3 mm and 0.5 mm.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the tensile strength of solder joint between gold alloy and nickel-chromium alloy. The specimens were made with type III gold alloys and Ni-Cr-Be alloy and Degular Lot 2 solder. Eighteen paired specimens were made, and subdivided into three groups. Group I specimens were gold alloy-gold alloy combination, Group II specimens were gold alloy-Ni-Cr alloy combination, Group III specimens were Ni-Cr alloy-Ni-Cr alloy combination. Solder block were made with solder investment(Degussa A,G, Germany) and stored in room temperature for 24 hours. To reduce the formation of metallic oxide and increase wetting properties, flux was used before preheating and soldering procedure. The specimens were preheated at $650^{\circ}C$ and flux were applied again and gas-oxygen torch was used to solder the specimen. All soldered specimens were subjected to a tensile force in the Instron universal testing machine : the crosshead speed was 1 mm/mim. Tensile strength values of three soldered joint groups were 1. Gold alloy-Gold alloy solder joint : $$48.8kg/mm^2$$ 2. Gold alloy-Ni-Cr alloy solder joint : $$30.9kg/mm^2$$ 3. Ni-Cr alloy-Ni-Cr alloy solder joint : $$31.8kg/mm^2$$ The microscopic examination of fracture site showed cohesive and combination fracture modes in gold alloy specimens, but showed all adhesive fracture modes in Ni-Cr alloy containing specimens.
