GYPSUM PRODUCT
• Obtained from natural gypsum rock
• That is heated to temp. sufficiently high its converted to :• Gypsum dihydrate (up to 130oC)
• Calcium sulfate hemihydrate (up to 200oC)
• Calcium sulfate (anhydrite)
- On heating CaSO4.2H2O converted to CaSO4.½H2O- The reaction is reversible and exothermic (dihydrate hemihydrate dihydrate)- Depending on the nature raw materials of dehydration process (plaster, hydrocal, densite) plaster : fluffy, porous, less dense hydrocal : higher density, more crystalline (dental stone) densite : the most dense
Gypsum are used in dental application :
• Impression materials• Models and dies - models is replica of the fitting surface of the oral cavity - die is replica of individual teeth• Moulds - • Refractory investment
GYPSUMProduct Use in Dentistry
GYPSUM = calcium sulfate =naturally occurs as dihydrate
Heat removes water and converts dihydrate to hemihydrate.

Hand methods
Longer spatulation times will tend to reduced the setting times and increase the setting expansion
Formulating model and lab plaster
- Plaster are produced by heated in an open kettle (1100-1200 C)
- ß-Calcium sulfate hemihydrate - Particle: irregular shape & porous
• Low – to Moderate Dental stone - Hydrocal are produced by dehydrated under pressure & in the presence of water vapour at 1250 C - Particle : more uniform in shape & more dense - α-Calcium sulfate hemihydrate
• Densite• Formulating as : - high-strength/low-expansion or - high-strength/high-expansion dental stone• Produced from densite made by boiling in a 30% calcium chloride solution
Hemihydrate at 100o C in the presence water doesn’t react to form dihydrate
Reaction: CaSO4.2H2O CaSO4.½H2O + 1½ H2O
Formulated with chemical that aim to:
• Modify their handling characteristics & properties• Accelerator: - Potassium sulfate K2SO4
- Terra alba (set calcium dihydrate)• Shortens the setting reaction - Sodium chloride NaCl• Retarder - Sodium citrate - Borax ( and accelerator)• Reduce the amount of water - a mixture calcium oxyde (0,1%) + gum arabic (1%)
• Volumetric contraction 7%• Effect spatulation : increased amount
spatulation causes more nuclei centers to be formed
• Effect temperature: increased temperature, the mobility Ca & sulfate ion increased, tends to increased the rate reaction & shorten setting time
• The additives in gypsum product that are used to control the degree of expansion :
• Plaster is 0.2 – 0.3 vol%• Stone & dies is0.05 – 0.10%

PROPERTIES
• Setting time: the time required for reaction to be complete and which the material can be separated from impression without distortion or fracture
• Surface hardness & abrasion resistance - High compressive strength correspond to high
surface hardness. Surface hardness increases at a faster than compressive strength.
- Abrasion resistance increased with resin impregnating
• Effect of humidity: absorb water vapor from humid atmosphere to form calcium sulfate dihydrate
- Effect colloidal systems & pH: - Colloidal systems (agar & alginate) retard the setting of gypsum product with interfering in the hydration reaction
• Tensile strength: determined with diametral test bending tends occur because of lateral force application ( on removal cast)
• Reproduction of detail: can reproduce - a groove 75 µm in width (dental plaster), - 50 µm in width (dental stone)• Setting expansion; - Dental plaster 0,2 – 0,3% - Dental stone 0,15 – 0,25%

PREVENTION forward CROSS INFECTION
Compatibility with impression :
• Agar hydrocolloid impression are more compati-ble than alginates impression
• The impression should be washed of saliva and any trace retarded the setting of gypsum
• After the impression is rinsed with water and disinfected
• The agar hydrocolloid impression must be stored in humidor from syneresis before pouring up the gypsum model

GYPSUM BONDED INVESTMENT
Three types of gypsum bonded :
Type 1 Thermal expansion type : for casting inlay and crown
Type 2 Hygroscopis expansion type : for casting inlay and crown
Type 3 For casting complete and partial dentures
• According to ADA Spec. no. 2 for gold alloy• Type based on use and expansion used type I : inlay, (thermal) type II : inlay, (hygroscopic) type III: full & partial denture, (thermal)• Composition: - alpha calcium sulfate hemihydrate (60-65%) a. it bind and hold the silica particle together b. permits pouring of the mix into the mould c. It impart strength to the mould d. contributes to mould expansion
- Silica : quartz or crystobalite (30-35%) a. acts as refractory b. regulated thermal expansion c. increases setting expansion of stone d. eliminates contraction of gypsum and changes it to an expansion - Chemical modifiers (5%) a. coloring matter b. reducing agent c. modifying chemical: regulate setting expansion. Setting time, prevent shrinkage of gypsum
GYPSUM-BONDED INVESTMENT
Composition are :• Calcium sulphate α-hemihydrate ,silica (Sio2) , powdered
graphite , copper and various modifiers to control setting time
• α-hemihydrate of gypsum (25 – 45%) - causes greater strength - as a binders - provide rigidity - shrinkage after dehydration 200-4000C - slightly expansion and large contraction at 400-700oC caused decomposition of investment - product with containing carbon max. temp: 6500C
• Quartz or crystobalite (allotropic forms of Si) - provide a refractory and to regulate the thermal expansion - silica is responsible for producing the expansion - quartz undergoes inversion at 575oC from low form (α-quartz) to high form (β-quartz)•
Requirements of an investment material
• Mould must expand to compensate for the alloy shrinkage
• The powder should have a fine particle size to give a smooth surface to the casting
• The manipulation should be easy and have suitable setting time
• The set material should be porous enough to permit air in the mould cavity to escape
• At higher temp. must not decompose to give off gases that may corrode the surface
• Must have adequate strength at room temp. to permit handling, enough strength at higher temp. to withstand the impact force of the molten metal
• Powder shall be composed of calcined gypsum and silica with or without addition other agent
• Shall be uniform and free of foreign material and set cakes lumps
• Mixed with water in proper ratio applied to the dental wax pattern
• Heated in the usual manner without contaminated /resistance of substrate
• Will be found satisfactory for use in casting dental gold alloy restorations
• Fineness of the powder: 85% (number 200 sieve), 95% (number 100 sieve), 100% (number 30 sieve),
• Heated in the usual manner without contaminated /resistance of substrate
• Will be found satisfactory for use in casting dental gold alloy restorations
• Fineness of the powder: 85% (number 200 sieve), 95% (number 100 sieve), 100% (number 30 sieve),
• Casting temp. should not be critical• The material should be economical
• Setting time : should be not less than 5 – 25 min and shall not vary more than 20% from the manufacturer’s values
• Compressive strength: shall be not less 24.6 kg/cm2 (type I & II), not less than 49.2 kg/cm2 (type III)
• Thermal expansion: - shall not at any temp. with range 200 – 700 for type I & III - shall not at any temp. with range 200 – 500 for type II - shall not shrinkage/decrease in length of more than 0.15% from the max. length at any temp.
• After casting it should break away readily from the surface of metal and should not react chemically with it
• Surface defect of alloy: - shall not contaminated the surface of the alloy into it - shall not cause: - pitting, - fins - roughness surface - voids in the alloy
Factors Controlling Setting Timeinvestment
• Manufacturing process• Mixing time and rate• Water/powder ratio
• Temperature• Accelerator and retarders
Strength is affected by:
• Use alpha-hemihydrate increases compressive strength
• Use of chemical modifiers increases the strength• More water (during mixing) to reduces the strength• Heating to 700oC greatest reduction in strength when
containing sodium chloride• After has cooled to room temp. is strength decreases
(because of fine cracks)
Investing the wax pattern
• The wax pattern should be cleaned of any debris, grease or oils
• Is used a commercial wax pattern cleaner, or a diluted synthetic detergent
• The thin film of cleanser left on the pattern reduces the surface tension and permits better wetting the investment
• Care and caution to minimize air entrapment• Mix the investment with mechanical mixing under vacuum
(removes air bubbles , evacuates harmful gasses produced by the chemical reaction of the high heat investment)
Investing
• Jenis : - Gypsum bonded investment - Phospate bonded investment 700 – 1300 C - Ethyl silicate bonded investment• Terdiri dari : binder, refractory• Heating : 500 C hygroscopis 700 C thermal expansion
• Investment thickness : 6 mm the end mold cavity and end of invested ring ( gypsum bonded investment)(3 – 4 mm of the top of phosphate bonded investment )
• Placing the casting ring liner short (3.25 mm) of the end of the ring (thickness > 1 mm)
- asbestos (cause carcinogenic) - aluminosilicate ceramic liner - cellulose paper liner

Hygroscopic low –heat technique
• Obtains the compensation expansion : - the 370C waterbath expands the wax pattern - the warm water entering the investment mold from the top adds some hygroscopic expansion - thermal expansion at 5000C
• Added expansion may be obtained by: - increasing the waterbath temperature to 400C - Using two layer of liner - increasing burnout temperature to range 600 –
6500C
