Abstract
This study examined the impact of interfacial interactions on bilayer yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) used in dental restorations. In-house bilayer structures of 3YSZ and 5YSZ composition underwent hydrothermal degradation to compare the properties of control and low-temperature degradation (LTD) treated groups. Biaxial flexural strength via piston-on-three-balls, staircase fatigue strength over 106 cycles at 15 Hz, phase characterization and quantification through XRD and Rietveld refinement, and fractography were conducted. Weibull analysis was employed to determine the Weibull modulus and characteristic strength. Results demonstrated an enhancement in the mechanical performance of 3YSZ composition after LTD treatment, whereas the mechanical properties of 5YSZ remained largely unaffected post-degradation. Fractographic analysis revealed that failure originated at the surface tensile location across all specimen groups. These findings offer insights into the mechanical behavior of bilayer zirconia structures and reinforce the significance of hydrothermal treatment in enhancing their performance, particularly in the case of 3Y compositions.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of the Mechanical Behavior of Biomedical Materials is concerned with the mechanical deformation, damage and failure under applied forces, of biological material (at the tissue, cellular and molecular levels) and of biomaterials, i.e. those materials which are designed to mimic or replace biological materials.
The primary focus of the journal is the synthesis of materials science, biology, and medical and dental science. Reports of fundamental scientific investigations are welcome, as are articles concerned with the practical application of materials in medical devices. Both experimental and theoretical work is of interest; theoretical papers will normally include comparison of predictions with experimental data, though we recognize that this may not always be appropriate. The journal also publishes technical notes concerned with emerging experimental or theoretical techniques, letters to the editor and, by invitation, review articles and papers describing existing techniques for the benefit of an interdisciplinary readership.
