PFM:Ni-Cr-Mo
higher chromium (15%) for improved corrosion resistance. Continum C's corrosion resistance exceeds the requirements of ISO 22674. Continum C's coefficient of
thermal expansion is optimized for major porcelain brands such as Ceramco, Noritake as well as other commercial medium-grain porcelains. Degassing Continum is not required, saving technicians valuable time. Continum C's titanium (Ti) acts as an
oxygen scavenger, reaching out and chemically bonding with the feldspar
(SiO2) and kaolin (K2O), found in all dental porcelains; enhancing bond strength. Titanium also yields im- proved anti-greening properties for more esthetic restorations. Aalba Dent's proprietary continu- ous casting technology yields an
essentially gas free alloy with unparalleled homogeneity and precise alloy chemistry.
When only the best will do… use Continum C.
