PROCESS AND EQUIPMENT FOR THERMAL CYCLING TESTING OF ODONTOLOGICAL MATERIALS

摘要

Concerns a process to execute thermal cycling tests on odontological materials in a specific equipment, with the basic goal of accelerating the decay of the interface between different materials, and the intrinsic decay of the test object itself, and of simulating oral conditions, keeping the test object fixed in the interior of a test chamber, isolated from the external environment, and the internal environment being adjusted to the desired temperature by way of liquids in diverse temperatures, contained in vats.

1. PROCESS AND EQUIPMENT FOR THERMAL CYCLING TESTING OF ODONTOLOGICAL MATERIALS that induces thermal stress on the interface and on distinct materials, constituted of a plurality of vats (5, 6, and 16) which contains, respectively, hot, cold and intermediate liquids, characterized by the liquids being transported and injected, by pumps (8), over the test object (9), being the test object (9) positioned and fixed on a support (11), inside a test chamber (22) that is isolated from the external environment and with its inside temperature adjusted via a heating set, and recycling the residual liquid from the test chamber (22), via a hydraulic pump (13), transferring the liquid through hose or tubing (14) to its respective vat (5, 6, and 16).
