Which is true regarding lathe cut silver alloy_______________?
Correct answer: B. Achieves lowest compressive strength at 1 hr.
- A. Requires least amount of mercury
- B. Achieves lowest compressive strength at 1 hr.
- C. Has tensile strength both at 15 min & 7 days comparable to high copper unicompositional alloy
- D. Has low creep
Explanation
Traditional lathe-cut silver alloy particles require more mercury and develop strength more slowly than many spherical or high-copper alloys, giving relatively low compressive strength at one hour. They also generally have greater creep, so the low-creep option is not correct.
