Nu Alloy dp® is a dispersed-phase, high-copper-content dental alloy with no zinc content. Dispersed-phase: A mixture of lathe-cut irregular particles and atomized spherical particles. High-copper-content: >12%. Nu Alloy® dp is a single composition alloy with absolute homogeneity of its particles. Thanks to its optimal chemical composition (45%Ag, 31%Sn, and 24%Cu) and its high copper content, the gamma-2 phase is eliminated from the alloy microstructure. As a result of this, fragility and instability problems in corrosive environments decrease. Its morphology is composed of atomized and lathe-cut particles which results in a fast amalgamation with its optimal 50% mercury content (Mercury-to-alloy ratio: 1:1) and improves the alloy’s physical and mechanical properties. This alloy has a high resistance to marginal fractures, excellent adaptation and marginal sealing, thanks to the homogeneity of its particles. Fine surface finish originated in the granulometry of its spherical and prismatic particles. Made in USA
