| Abstract | ||
| This work aims at preparing and studying the effect of hydroxyapatite (HA) and zirconia (ZrO2) additions on some physical properties and fracture strength of dental ceramic. In this work, dental ceramic batches have been prepared from (80% Potash feldspar, 15% silica and 5% Duekhla kaolin). Firstly, HA was added with different percentages (2,4,6,8,10)%wt. Secondly, both of HA and ZrO2 have been added in percentage (5%wt) with different weight percentages for both of HA and ZrO2 to (95%wt) of dental ceramic batch. Mixes were semi-dry pressed under (15 MPa) load, and they were fired at (1100°C) temperature. The results show the fracture strength of the dental that ceramic increases with the addition of HA. The best addition of HA was (4 %wt) because it gives the best of the physical and mechanical properties. By the addition of HA:ZrO2 mixture, the value of fracture strength increased more than the addition of HA alone. | ||
