1Department of Stomatology, Quanzhou Medical College Affiliated People's Hospital, Quanzhou, Fujian Province, China. 18965869766@189.cn
Purpose:
To study the influence of heat treatment on retention force of magnetic attachments.
Methods:
Three groups of magnetic attachments (including 10 Magfit EX 400W, 10 Magfit EX 600W, 10 Magfit EX 800W) were fixed on universal test machine respectively. The retention force of each attachment was measured. After heat treatment, their retention force was measured again. The difference of retention force before and after heat treatment was compared using SPSS11.0 software package.
Results:
The average retention force of magnetic attachments (Magfit EX 400W) was (1.58±0.12)N before heat treatment and (1.64±0.11)N after heat treatment. The average retention force of magnetic attachments (Magfit EX 600W) was (2.67±0.19)N before heat treatment and (2.65±0.14)N after heat treatment.The average retention force of magnetic attachments (Magfit EX 800W) was (3.02±0.25)N before heat treatment and (3.02±0.24)N after heat treatment. The retention force of magnetic attachments had no significant change after heat treatment (P>0.05).
Conclusion:
The magnetic attachments can be treated by waterbath heart treatment in the clinic without significant change of their retention force.

Magnetic Susceptibility and Permeability
When diamagnetic materials are placed under an external magnetic field, the moments opposite to the field are induced. Hence, the susceptibility for diamagnets has a minimal negative value of 10-5–10-6. Since...
