PURPOSE. To characterize the microstructure of three yttria partially stabilized zirconia ceramics and to compare their hardness, indentation fracture resistance (IFR), biaxial flexural strength (BFS), and fatigue flexural strength. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Disc-shaped specimens were obtained from 3Y-TZP (Vita YZ HT), 4Y-PSZ (Vita YZ ST) and 5Y-PSZ (Vita YZ XT), following the ISO 6872/2015 guidelines for BFS testing (final dimensions of 12 mm in diameter, 0.7 and 1.2 ± 0.1 mm in thicknesses). Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analyses were performed, and mechanical properties were assessed by Vickers hardness, IFR, quasi-static BFS and fatigue tests. RESULTS. All ceramics showed similar chemical compositions, but mainly differed in the amount of yttria, which was higher as the amount of cubic phase in the diffractogram (5Y-PSZ > 4Y-PSZ > 3Y-TZP). The 4Y- and 5Y-PSZ specimens showed surface defects under SEM, while 3Y-TZP exhibited greater grain uniformity on the surface. 5Y-PSZ and 3Y-TZP presented the highest hardness values, while 3Y-TZP was higher than 4Y- and 5Y-PSZ with regard to the IFR. The 5Y-PSZ specimen (0.7 and 1.2 mm) showed the worst mechanical performance (fatigue BFS and cycles until failure), while 3Y-TZP and 4Y-PSZ presented statistically similar values, higher than 5Y-PSZ for both thicknesses (0.7 and 1.2 mm). Moreover, 3Y-TZP showed the highest (1.2 mm group) and the lowest (0.7 mm group) degradation percentage, and 5Y-PSZ had higher strength degradation than 4Y-PSZ group. CONCLUSION. Despite the microstructural differences, 4Y-PSZ and 3Y-TZP had similar fatigue behavior regardless of thickness. 5Y-PSZ had the lowest mechanical performance.

Zirconia films stabilized b $Y_2O_3$, YSZ, films were deposition by metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) onto various kind of substrates. $Y_2O_3$, $ZrO_2$and the mixtures of these two were deposited and characterized. The deposition rate, the film composition and the structure could be systematically varied through the $Y(C_{11}H_{19}O_2)_3$, Zr(O.t-$C_H_9)_4$source gas ratios and the deposition temperature. The Y/Zr ratio in YSZ film could be adjusted by controlling the ratio of $Y(C_{11}H_{19}O_2)_3$, Zr(O.t-$C_4H_9)_4$partial pressures. This is because the ratios of the deposition rates of Y and Zr atoms in $Y_2O_3$and $ZrO_2$films to those in YSZ films, Ф, are constant irrespective of the input gas concentration. However, the Y/Zr ratio was found to be smaller than that estimated based on the deposition rates of un-mixed $Y_2O_3$and $ZrO_2$films. This is because the Фs of Y and Zr atoms are not equal. The activation energy of $Y_2O_3$component in YSZ films was similar to that of $ZrO_2$component in YSZ films. These YSZ values were more than 4 times larger than those of un-mixed $Y_2O_3$or $ZrO_2$films.

최근, CAD/CAM 기술이 발전하면서 하이브리드 보철물의 제작에 이용되고 있다. Double scanning technique은 시적용 납의치와 주모형을 스캔 후 중첩하여, 가상 디자인의 현실화와 보철 기공 과정의 간소화를 이루었다. 본 증례에서는 금속 혹은 지르코니아 대신 고성능 중합체인 Polyetherketoneketone (Pekkton, Cendres+$M{\acute{e}}taux$, Biel, Switzerland)를 framework의 재료로 사용했으며, 콤포짓이나 세라믹 혹은 의치용 치아 대신 Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) 비니어링 치아(Visio-lign, Bredent, Senden, Germany)를 최종 보철물로 사용하였다. Pekkton과 Visio-lign을 사용한 본 증례에서 만족할만한 치료 결과와 환자의 만족을 얻었으며, 추후 주기적인 유지관리 및 평가가 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

In this study, the wear characteristics of five different dental composite resins cured by conventional halogen light and LED light sources were investigated. Five different dental composite resins of Surefil, Z100, Dyract AP, Fuji II LC and Compoglass were worn against a zirconia ceramic ball using a pin-on-disk type wear tester with 15N contact force in a reciprocal sliding motion of sliding distance of 10mm/cycle at 1Hz under the room temperature dry condition. The wear variations of dental composite resins were linearly increased as the number of cycles increased. It was observed that the wear resistances of these specimens were in the order of Dyract AP > Surefil > Compoglass > Z100 > Fuji II LC. On the morphological observations by SEM, the large crack formation on the sliding track of Fuji II LC specimen was the greatest among all resin composites. Dyract AP showed less wear with few surface damage. There is no significant difference in wear performance between conventional halogen light curing and light emitting diodes curing sources. It indicates that a light emitting diodes (LED) source can replace a halogen light source as curing unit for composite resin restorations.

Silicon nitride ceramic has been verified as an excellent rolling bearing material because of its high strength and outstanding rolling fatigue life properties. However under some corrosive circumstances it showed drawbacks such as hardness reduction and severe wear caused by corrosion. In this work, the variations of the rolling wear and hardness of three kinds of ceramics were studied for the specimen aged 15 days in alkali water (90 $\pm$ 2$\^{C}$,25 wt% NaOH ). All of the specimens, ① Si$_3$N$_4$, ② 3Y-TZP and ③ 3Y-TZP alloyed with 5 wt% CeO$_2$, were sintered and post-HIPed, and then polished up to 0.02 $\mu$mRa of surface roughness. Rolling wear tests were conducted by MJ type rolling fatigue life tester under the initial theoretical maximum contact stress of 3.16 GPa and the spindle speed of 1,000 rpm. Spindle oil was used as a lubricant. The specimens were not worn before aging. For the specimen aged in alkali water, Si$_3$N$_4$ and 3Y-TZP were worn by rolling wear tests, and hardness was decreased. While aging the specimens, the phase was transformed from tetragonal to monoclinic in 3Y-TZP and the microstructure change occurred in Si$_2$N$_4$. 3Y-TZP specimens alloyed with 5 wt% CeO$_2$ were not worn after aging and no phase transformation occurred while aging.

최근들어 지르코니아 세라믹과 같이 $1500^{\circ}C$에서 소결된 소재를 이용한 인공 치아 보철물의 수요가 증대되고 있다. 그러나 이들 소재의 강도가 너무 높기 때문에 세라믹용 보철물을 기공사가 수작업으로 제작하기란 매우 어려워 CNC 기계를 사용하여 제작하고 있다. CNC 기계에 의한 보철물 제작에 있어 가장 중요한 사항은 치과 의사가 만들고자 하는 형태의 보철물이 3차원으로 정확하게 모델링되어져 있는가이다. 본 논문에서는 인공 치아 주요 보철물인 단일 캡(single cap)과 코너스 코아(conus core)와 같은 단일 코아 보철물를 효과적으로 모델링할 수 있는 기법을 제시하고, 제시된 기법에 의해 모델링된 단일 코아 결과를 소개한다. 특히, 제시된 기법에서는 단일 코아 보철물 모델링을 위해 Minkowski Sum과 ZMap 알고리즘을 사용한다.

2성분계(CaO-, Y2O3-, MgO-ZrO2) 및 3성분계(MgO-ZrO2-Al2O3)ZrO2분말의 안정화제 종류, 첨가량 및 열처리온도 변화에 따른 ZrO2의 상전이를 X-선 회절과 Raman분광법으로 연구하였다. CaO-, 및 Y2O3-ZrO2계에서 CaO와 Y2O3의 첨가량이 각각 6~15mol% 및 3~15mol%로 증가에 따른 정방정상에서의 입방정상으로의 상전이를 X-선회절 pattern으로는 판별하기 어려웠으나, Raman spectra에서는 모든 Raman band가 저파수쪽으로 이동하고 band의 수 및 그 세기가 현저히 감소함을 관찰할 수 있었다. 이것은 정방정$\longrightarrow$입방정의 상전이가 발생한 것으로 ZrO2 격자내에서 Zr4+ 이온과 Ca2+ 혹은 Y3+이온의 치환에 의해 산소이온의 빈자리 생성으로 인한 구조적 불규칙성과 선택규칙(k=0)의 파괴에 기인한 것으로 해석된다. MgO의 경우에는 10mol%에서 단사정에서 입방정으로 상전이가 발생하였다. MgO-ZrO2-Al2O3계에서는 Al2O3의 첨가에 의해 입방정$\longrightarrow$단사정의 상전이가 발생하는데 이것은 MgO와 Al2O3의 반응에 의해 spinel(MgAl2O4)의 형성으로 인하여 MgO가 충분히 안정화제로서의 역할을 하지 못하기 때문으로 판단된다. 또한, 안정화제의 종류와 첨가량 변화에 따른 ZrO2의 상전이를 ZrO2의 격자상수값의 변화와 관련하여 설명할 수 있는데, 즉, 안정화제의 첨가량이 증가할수록 격자상수 a값은 증가하고 c값은 감소하여 10~13mol%사이에서는 c/a의 축비가 1에 근접하고, 따라서 정방정$\longrightarrow$입방정의 상전이가 진행됨을 알 수 있었다.

The effect of stress induced phase transformation on $Al_2 O_3$ matrix dispersed with $ZrO_2-Y_2O_3$ has been studied. In order to determinate the mechanical properties three $Al_2O_3-ZrO_2$ composite series containing 1, 3 and 5 mole% $Y_2O_3$ were prepared. The starting materials were $Al_2O_3$ and $ZrO_2-Y_2O_3$ which was prepared from the aqueous solution of high purity $YCl_3$.$6H_2O$ and $ZrOCl_2$.$8H_2O$. Powder mixtures of $Al_2O_3-ZrO_2$ containing $Y_2O_3$ have been prepared by ball-milling with methanol and the samples were formed by isostatic press and sintered at 150$0^{\circ}C$ for 2hrs. After sintering. the specimens were polished for mechanical determination. The relative density of sintered specimens were also measured. It was found that the addition of 1, 3mole% to {{{{ { ZrO}_{2 } }} allowed full retention of the tetragonal phase in $Al_2O_3-ZrO_2$ but partially stabilized zirconia (PSZ) was produced by additions of 5 mole% $Y_2O_3$.The critical stress-intensity factor KIc of $A_2O_3-ZrO_2$ (containing 1 mole% $Y_2O_3$) composite materials increased with increasing $ZrO_2$ content, The maximum value of KIC=7Mn/$m^3$/2 at 20 mole% $ZrO_2$ exhibited about twice that of the $Al_2 O_3$ The modulus of rupture exhibited a trend similiar to KIC The maximum value of MOR was 580MN/m2. As the amount of Y2O3 increase it was observed that the maximum of KIC and MOR decreased : Additions of 3 mole% $Al_2O_3$ $Y_2O_3$ allowed the maximum of KIC 6MN/$m^3$/2 MOR 540MN/$m^2$ at 15 mole% $ZrO_2$ additions of 5 mole% $Y_2O_3$ allowed the maximum of KIC 5MN/$m^3$/2 MOR 410MN/$m^2$ at 10 mole% $ZrO_2$.
