It was found that, at all pH's the presence of inhibitors in high copper amalgam decrease the corrosion current and the corrosion potential shifted to less negative values. Sodium phosphate was found to inhibit the corrosion more efficiently than sodium citrate. The maximum inhibition due to phosphate or citrate incorporation within amalgam structure was recorded with pH 7.0.  ISSN : 0  Journal Name : Egyptian dental journal  Volume : 1  Issue Number : 1  Publishing Year : 1993 AH 1993 AD  Article Type : Article  Added Date : Monday, December 10, 2007  Researchers Researcher Name (Arabic) Researcher Name (English) Researcher Type Dr Grade Email عصام نجيب Najeeb, esam Investigator Doctorate enajeeb@kau.edu.sa Files File Name Type Description  CORRODIBILITY OF HIGH COPPER DENTAL AMALGAM.pdf pdf   Back To Researches Page
