Abstract

Abstract A die material particularly suitable for the making of castings or the like, comprises 50 to 80 parts of magnesium oxide, 10-40 parts of alumina, 2 to 6 parts of monohydrated ammonium phosphate, and 1 to 4 parts of dihydrated ammonium phosphate. The dry blend thus formed, when mixed with a chilled liquid binder containing a collodial silica sol of about 40 weight percent solids content in the ratio of one portion of the liquid binder and from 2 to 5 portions of the dry blend, forms a ceramic slurry which can be readily set in hot water within 4 to 10 minutes. The set ceramic casting is then dry heated to about 250° F. for one to two hours. Molten metal is then applied on the casting for forming a metal jacket to use in dental prostheses.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 102 words
A ceramic die for casting a dental prosthesis, produced by providing a composition comprising: one portion by weight of a liquid binder, comprising colloidal silica sol of about 40% solids content, and from one to five portions by weight of a dry blend, said blend consisting essentially of 50-80 parts by weight of magnesium oxide, 10-40 parts by weight of alumina not coarser than 100 mesh, 2 to 6 parts by weight of monohydrated ammonium phosphate, and 1 to 4 parts by weight of dihydrated ammonium phosphate forming the composition into the desired shape of the die and allowing same to set.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 102 words
A ceramic die for casting a dental prosthesis, produced by providing a composition comprising: one portion by weight of a liquid binder, comprising colloidal silica sol of about 40% solids content, and from one to five portions by weight of a dry blend, said blend consisting essentially of 50-80 parts by weight of magnesium oxide, 10-40 parts by weight of alumina not coarser than 100 mesh, 2 to 6 parts by weight of monohydrated ammonium phosphate, and 1 to 4 parts by weight of dihydrated ammonium phosphate forming the composition into the desired shape of the die and allowing same to set.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 44 words
A die according to claim 1, in which said dry blend consists essentially of 69 parts by weight of magnesium oxide, 23 parts by weight of alumina, 5.5 parts by weight of monohydrated ammonium phosphate, and 2.5 parts by weight of dihydrated ammonium phosphate.
