A new amalgamable powder is disclosed containing, in the preferred embodiment, by weight, a mixture of between 24% and 56% silver, 20% and 48% tin, and 12.5% and 43% copper, in which when the tin/copper relation is between 1/1 and 2.50/1, the silver/tin relation is between 0.75/1 and 1.8/1, and when the tin/copper relation is between 0.75/1 and 1/1, the silver/tin relation is between 0.75/1 and 2.5/1. In the amalgamable powder at least a portion of the particles are of irregular polyhedral shape, obtained by mechanical means starting from a solid state alloy, while the remainder of the particles, if any, are spheroidal shape, obtained by rapid solidification from a liquid state. In addition, at least 80% of the particles of the powder have their largest dimension greater than 4 microns. |
