[Materials for fusing ceramics, their properties and behavior]

Tests of bending strength carried out on rods of metal alloys and ceramic material as well as on rods of bound metal ceramic material provided information concerning the properties of the basic materials. The influence of the 0.2% limit and the E-modulus of metal alloys on the strength of the bound constructions is only ascertainable in a few cases. This is attributed to the considerable influence of the binding strength of the metal ceramic material on the strength of the whole construction.
