The effect of simulating porcelain firing on the elemental composition, microstructure, and mechanical properties of electroformed gold restorations

Background/purpose: The mechanical properties of pure gold (Au) are modified by thermal treatments. Thus, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of porcelain firing on the elemental composition, microstructure, and mechanical properties of electroformed Au crowns. Materials and methods: Tw...
