Studies on the influence of Be content on the corrosion behavior and mechanical properties of Ni-25Cr-10Mo alloys.

The influence of Be content on the corrosion behavior and strength of dental alloys was examined using experimental Ni-25Cr-10Mo-xBe alloys with graduated Be contents of 0, 0.6, 1.1, 1.6, and 2.1 wt.%. It became evident that the corrosion resistance is reduced even by a 0.6 wt.% Be content. Strength increases by 51% with increasing Be content, while ductility is reduced by 84%. The results revealed that, from the stand-point of corrosion resistance, Be-free Ni-Cr-Mo alloys should be preferred in clinical use.

Ion release from Ni-Cr-Mo and Co-Cr-Mo casting alloys.

The substance loss from four commercially available Ni-Cr-Mo and four Co-Cr-Mo alloys was examined using a solution of 0.1 mol/L lactic acid and 0.1 mol/L sodium chloride. Dissolved ions were analyzed over a 5-week period using atomic absorption spectroscopy. The results revealed a considerable range of corrosion rates among the Ni-Cr-Mo alloys, with average values after 35 days between 0.54 and 3,261 micrograms/cm2, while the distribution of values for the Co-Cr-Mo alloys was not as wide--between 0.43 and 34.9 micrograms/cm2.
