Improved Tensile Specimen for Dental Casting Gold Alloys

Abstract
An improved tensile specimen has been developed for dental casting gold alloys. This design approximates the size of most dental castings, is easily produced, conforms with current engineering specifications, and can be used in the as-cast condition. Conducted tests showed that the specimens yield reliable mechanical values which should permit better correlation between materials-testing procedures and applied research efforts.
