β¦ Synopsis
The reactions between liquid mercury and high purit,y tin, silver, and silver-t,in dental alloy (Ag,Sn) were studied at 30Β°C. Polyhedral-shaped cryslals formed both on the tin and Ag3Sri specimens, while no crystalites were detected on the surface of the silver. The cryst,als on the tin surface were ident,ified as y2 by x-ray diffraction methods. Electron microprobe data revealed that the polyhedral crystals which formed on the Ag3Sn consisted only of the silver-mercury compound which dissolved a small amount of liri (Ag 28.5, Hg 71.1, Sn 0.4 wt. yo). The diffusion profile for the Ilg-Ag,Sn syst,em demonstrated that silver atoms migrate much fasler than tin atoms in Ag& b0i.h at the surface and in the area close t,o the mercury-penetrated grain boundaries. It is clearly demonstrated that the bulk and grain-boundary diffiision of ~i l v e r is a major factror in t,he clinical setting reaction of dental amalgam.

The setting reaction of Ag,Sn amalgams may be thought of as a liquid phase sintering problem in which the reactants seek to form products with the lowest thermodynamic potential. We discuss the thermodynamic and kinetic considerations of this reaction. The lowering of free energy has been given as t
## Abstract The reduction of 3,6βdiβ__tert__βbutylβ__o__βbenzoquinone with tin amalgam gives the different tin catecholate complexes. The use of polar solvents for this reaction leads to the formation of Cat~2~SnβΒ·βL~2~ species (where Catβdianion of 3,6βdiβ__tert__βbutylcatechol, L = Et~2~O, THF, P
## Abstract In the present paper, the influence of 1, 3, 5 and 10 % Bi (weight %) as ternary additions on structure, melting and mechanical properties of rapidly solidified Snβ3.5Ag alloy has been investigated. The effect of Bi was discussed based on the experimental results. The experimental resul
