Castability of Ti-6Al-7Nb alloy for dental casting.

Castability of Ti-6Al-7Nb alloy, CP Ti, and Co-Cr alloy was examined for mesh type and plate type specimens. The casting was carried out with a pressure type casting machine and commercial molding material. The castability of the mesh type specimen was evaluated in terms of the number of cast segments (castability index), and that of the plate type was evaluated by the area of the specimen (casting rate). X-ray images processed by a digital imaging technique were used to identify the casting porosity. The casting rate of the specimens increased with increasing thickness of the specimens. It was concluded that the castability index and the casting rate of Ti-6Al-7Nb alloy was slightly lower than that of CP Ti, and higher than that of Co-Cr alloy, were as Ti-6Al-7Nb alloy showed fewer casting porosities than CP Ti and smaller ones than Co-Cr alloy, which was advantageous for increasing the reliability of the casting properties.
