Problems solved by technology

Although this type of binder is very easy to obtain low-viscosity, high-fluidity feed, there are the following problems in the production practice process: 1. There are too many low-molecular components, it is not easy to thermally decompose, the debinding time is long, and it is easy to cause injection Defects, such as shrinkage cavities, surface bubbling, weld lines and other defects; 2. The strength of the prepared green body is low, the tailings are difficult to come out, and it is difficult to realize automatic production; 3. During the solvent degreasing process, polymer swelling is easy to occur, and particles It is very easy to rearrange, causing bubbling, cracking and dimensional deformation; 4. The process of degumming requires a large amount of organic solvents, which is not environmentally friendly; Capillary pore channels, coupled with a large amount of low-melting binder components, form a liquid phase during the heating and debinding process to produce a siphon phenomenon, which will rearrange the powder particles and cause a large number of micropores due to local agglomeration
Fatal microporous defects lead to low light transmittance of alumina transparent ceramics, poor sintered strength, particle rearrangement and agglomeration will also lead to sintering deformation of the product, and poor dimensional accuracy
This is the reason why transparent alumina orthodontic brackets are not widely used in the ceramic injection molding process

Abstract

The invention discloses a transparent ceramic orthodontic bracket and a preparation method thereof. The transparent ceramic orthodontic bracket comprise the following components in parts by weight: 80-90 parts of nano aluminum oxide and 10-20 parts of a binder, wherein the binder comprises the following five parts: a first part is a low-molecular component containing at least one of paraffin, microcrystalline wax, bee wax, EBS wax and PE wax, a second part is a catalytic component, namely homo-polymerized polyformaldehyde with a high melt index; a third part is a skeleton component containingat least one of polypropylene, polyethylene, an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, POE and polystyrene; a fourth part is a plasticizer; and a fifth part is an organic silicon dispersing agent. The transparent ceramic bracket is high in density, few in air holes, high in light transmission and high in three-point bending strength.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of ceramics, and in particular relates to a transparent ceramic orthodontic bracket and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] In 1986, transparent orthodontic ceramic brackets came out and quickly became an alternative to plastic brackets and metal brackets. The raw materials for making transparent ceramic brackets are mainly alumina and zirconia, of which alumina is used more. Alumina transparent ceramic brackets have high strength, high transparency, are not easy to color and release gas, and have incomparable advantages in terms of light transmittance, color, wear resistance and biocompatibility, etc., which brackets made of other materials cannot match. Therefore, as dental patients, especially women, have higher and higher requirements for aesthetics, the market application range of transparent ceramic brackets is increasing. [0003] At present, alumina transparent ceramic brackets are di...
