Abstract

Disclosed are a zirconia-based antibacterial denture material and a preparation method thereof. The zirconia-based antibacterial denture material includes components with the following mass parts: 75 to 80 parts of zirconium oxide, 2 to 5 parts of nanosized silver oxide, 3 to 5 parts of nanosized zinc oxide, 1 to 3 parts of nanosized lanthanum oxide, 1 to 3 parts of nanosized yttrium oxide, 1 to 2 parts of cerium oxide, and 1 to 2 parts of size control agent. The zirconia-based antibacterial denture material has good antibacterial effect and high strength.

Claims (13)

1 . A zirconia-based antibacterial denture material, comprising components with the following mass parts: 75 to 80 parts of zirconium oxide, 2 to 5 parts of nanosized silver oxide, 3 to 5 parts of nanosized zinc oxide, 1 to 3 parts of nanosized lanthanum oxide, 1 to 3 parts of nanosized yttrium oxide, 1 to 2 parts of cerium oxide, and 1 to 2 parts of size control agent.

2 . The zirconia-based antibacterial denture material according to claim 1 , wherein the size control agent is calcium silicate.

3 . The zirconia-based antibacterial denture material according to claim 1 , wherein a ratio of a sum of masses of the silver oxide and the zinc oxide to the mass of the yttrium oxide is between 5 to 0.5 and 5 to 1.

4 . The zirconia-based antibacterial denture material according to claim 1 , wherein a particle size of the zirconium oxide is less than or equal to 30 nm.

5 . A preparation method of a zirconia-based antibacterial denture material, comprising:

weighing zirconium oxide, silver oxide, zinc oxide, lanthanum oxide, yttrium oxide, cerium oxide and size control agent in proportion, and mixing by ball milling, to obtain ceramic powder;

putting the ceramic powder into a mold and pre-pressing the ceramic power to obtain an antibacterial denture porcelain block precursor; and

performing cold isostatic pressing, pre-sintering, and high-temperature sintering on the antibacterial denture porcelain block precursor to obtain the zirconia-based antibacterial denture material.

6 . The preparation method of the zirconia-based antibacterial denture material according to claim 5 , wherein a pressure of the cold isostatic pressing is 100 MPa to 300 MPa, and a pressure holding time is 60 seconds to 600 seconds.

7 . The preparation method of the zirconia-based antibacterial denture material according to claim 5 , wherein a pressure of the pre-pressing is 5 MPa to 50 MPa, and a pressure holding time is 10 seconds to 60 seconds.

8 . The preparation method of the zirconia-based antibacterial denture material according to claim 5 , wherein a final temperature of the pre-sintering is 800° C. to 1000° C., a heating rate is 10° C./min to 15° C./min and a temperature holding time is 1 hour to 5 hours.

9 . The preparation method of the zirconia-based antibacterial denture material according to claim 5 , wherein a final temperature of the high-temperature sintering is 1400° C. to 1550° C., a heating rate is 1° C./min to 10° C./min and a temperature holding time is 1 hour to 5 hours.

10 . The preparation method of the zirconia-based antibacterial denture material according to claim 5 , wherein a process of the high-temperature sintering is performed in a magnetic field environment.
