Amalgam: Setting reaction
1. __________ amalgam Silver-tin (gamma) + mercury (mercury) -> silver-tin (gamma) + silver-mercury (gamma-1) + tin-mercury (gamma-2) 2. ___ _______ amalgam silver-tin + copper+mercury-> silver-tin (_____) + silver-mercury (____ __) + copper-tin (___) Copper is more affinity to tin than mercury. This reduced the gamma-2 or tin-mercury product |
Amalgam: Setting reaction
1. conventional amalgam Silver-tin (gamma) + mercury (mercury) -> silver-tin (gamma) + silver-mercury (gamma-1) + tin-mercury (gamma-2) 2. high copper amalgam silver-tin + copper+mercury-> silver-tin (gamma) + silver-mercury (gamma-1) + copper-tin (eta) Copper is more affinity to tin than mercury. This reduced the gamma-2 or tin-mercury product |
