ELASTIC® CROMOAlginate Impression Material

INDICATIONS

1. Impressions for partial dentures

2. Preliminary impressions for

complete dentures

3. Impressions for orthodontics

4. Impressions for study models

5. Impressions for temporary crowns and bridges

FEATURES

Easy mixing Smooth consistency Optimum viscosity Colour change indicator Highly elastic impressions Low deformation – high impressions

stability High compressive strength 120 h pouring time Precise details reproduction

120 h Dimensional stability

MECHANICAL PROPERTIES

Compressive strength(Mpa) 1,00 – 1,27

Practically means how strong or tear resistant is the impression, when you pull it out from the impression tray or plaster. Elastic Cromo has a high-optimum Compressive strength and at the same time high Temporary deformation (Strain in Compression = elasticity of the impression).

MECHANICAL PROPERTIES

Permanent deformation(%) 2,50 – 3,00

In simple words – how much % of the material does not recovers to the same volume position after being pressed, or pulled – Recovery from deformation is an oposite characteristic. Elastic Cromo has quite low Permanent deformation.

MECHANICAL PROPERTIES

Temporary deformation(%) min. 11,00

Or it is also called Strain in Compression according to the new ISO norm – Temporary deformation differs from Strain in compression only in a way of measuring, but the figures are almost the same = elasticity of the material. Elastic Cromo belongs to the material with very high elasticity. Thus, the impression is easily removable from the patient´s mouth or the plaster cast.
