Mechanical Characterisation and Biomechanical and Biological Behaviours of Ti-Zr Binary-Alloy Dental Implants

Table 1

Length (mm) = length in mm of the sampled Ti-15Zr-machined cylinders. Mass (mg) and submerged mass (mg) = calculated value of the mass of the sampled Ti-15Zr cylinders: conventional measurement and submerged in water, respectively. Temperature (°C) = temperature of the water in which the samples were submerged. Fluid density (g/cm3) = density of the water in which the samples were submerged. Sample density (g/cm3) = calculated density of the sampled Ti-15Zr cylinders.
