Acceleration of corrosion of dental amalgam by abrasion

M. Marek

Dental amalgam shows passive behavior, but the protective film can be destroyed by abrasion. In this study, specimens of both low- and high-copper amalgam were abraded, and the effect on the corrosion behavior was examined. The electrochemical measurements showed that the corrosion rate was substantially increased, and that re-passivation was relatively slow.
