The effects of corrosion on the major phases of dental amalgam microstructure have been studied in vitro on samples prepared by electroplating mercury on AgaSn. Tests were made in synthetic saliva, and samples were examined in a scanning electron microscope before and after the exposure. Contact of

Abstract
Analysis of the anodic polarization and alternate immersion test response of 16 precious metal alloys with compositions similar to those of commercial dental golds indicate that alloys containing high (Ag + Cu) contents are likely to be more corrosion and tarnish prone. It also appears that the alloys containing high precious metals contents (Au, Pt, and Pd) are characterized by immunity or anodic film protection over a range of anodic overpotentials, indicating superior corrosion resistance.

The corrosion behavior of commercially available copper, nickel, and gold alloys for dental castings was investigated. The alloys investigated included: three copper alloys (76-87Cu, 6-11A1, O-lZZn, 1-5Ni, 0-4Fe, 0.5-1.2Mn), two nickel alloys (68- 78Ni, 12-16Cr, 4-14M0, 0-1.7Be), and one gold alloy
