<p>A dental porcelain composition, comprising a glassy matrix and rubidium leucite crystallites embedded therein, and having maturing temperatures in the range from about 650 °C to about 800 °C and CTEs in the range from about 13 to about 17, more preferably in the range from about 13.5 to about 16, and most preferably in the range from about 14 to about 16 x 10-6/ °C (measured from 25 °C to 400 °C). The tetragonal rubidium leucite is preferably both fine-grained (i.e., having average diameters of less than about 5 microns) and uniformly sized. Preferably, the average diameters are less than about 1 to about 2 microns.</p> |
