    Study Notes

    Material Properties

    • As the force increases, the crack grows until it reaches the other surface, causing complete fracture of the sample.

    Hardness

    • Measures the ease of cutting, finishing, and polishing a material
    • Also indicates scratch resistance
    • Various hardness tests exist, including:
      • Brinell
      • Rockwell
      • Barcrol
      • Shore A
      • Knoop
      • Vickers (most common)
    • Each test uses a different indenter, a piece of diamond with a specific geometric shape (e.g., sphere, rhomboidal pyramid, square pyramid)
    • Each material has its own unique hardness number, determined by the load applied

    Surface Energy and Wettability

    • Surface energy is the sum of all intermolecular forces on a material's surface
    • Contact angle is the angle between a liquid drop and a smooth surface, indicating wettability
    • Important in dentistry, as it affects the color matching of fillings under different light sources

    Setting Time

    • The time required for a material to set or harden from a plastic or fluid state
    • Does not indicate the completion of the reaction, but rather when the material can no longer be used

    Material Properties

    • Toughness is the resistance of a material to fracture, indicating the amount of energy required to cause fracture or break a material.

    Fracture Toughness

    • Fracture Toughness (KIC) measures the energy consumed in plastic deformation.
    • The Fracture Toughness test involves applying a force onto a sample with a specific morphology, such as a notch or crack, to measure the energy required to cause fracture.

    Abrasive Wear

    • Abrasive wear occurs through two-body wear, where direct sliding action occurs between antagonistic objects with no intermediate layer transmitting forces between the interlocking surfaces.

    Rheological Properties

    • Viscosity is the resistance of a fluid to flow, measured as shear stress/strain.
    • The unit of viscosity is Poise (1 P = 0.1 Pa-s), or Centipoise (100 cP = 1P).
    • Types of viscous fluids can be classified according to their flow behavior:
      • Newtonian fluids: viscosity is constant and independent of stress rate.

    Sorption

    • Sorption is a general term that describes both adsorption and absorption.
    • Adsorption involves molecules being taken up by the surface, whereas absorption involves molecules being taken up by the volume.
