Abstract: Objective:To investigate the effect of degassing and peroxidation on metal-ceramic bonding strength of Pd-Ag alloy. Methods:The metal-ceramic interface of group A (peroxidation)and B (degassing)was investigated under scanning electronic micro-scope(SEM)and energy dispersive spectrum (EDS).The bond strength between metal and ceramics was measured using a three-point bend test according to ISO9693.Results:The formation of nodules on the surface of alloy specimens was observed in both groups by SEM.The nodules on the specimens of group A were more densely than those of group B.The diameter of nodules in group B was 1 .5μm approximately.The interface of the metal-ceramic specimens had a clear transition porcelain layer and no hole or slit was present. The mean bonding strength of group A and B was (45.97 ±3.92)MPa and (49.1 1 ±6.42)MPa respectively(P=0.031 ).Conclu-sion:Degassing can improve metal-ceramic bonding strength of Pd-Ag alloy significantly.
