The work of preparing
16、International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaiso
17、n with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.The main task of techn
18、ical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.Attention is drawn

20、 All rights reserved iiiBS EN ISO 13078:2013ISO 13078:2013(E)IntroductionDental furnaces are suitable for the manufacturing of metal-ceramic and all-ceramic restorations for use in dentistry. Dental furnaces are particularly used for firing or sintering, respectively, of dental opaques, dentine and
21、enamel materials to the respective compatible substructure materials. Dental furnaces are also used for other applications such as oxidizing metallic substructures in preparation for porcelain firing, for melting pressable ceramics, for stain and glaze firing, etc. According to the current state of
22、the art, the temperature of this process lies between 600 C and 1 050 C.The firing result obtained is influenced by the accuracy of the actual temperature, which may be influenced by the different calibration processes applied by the manufacturers of dental furnaces as well as by the varying constru
23、ction types of the dental furnaces currently on the market.Despite the fact that different dental furnaces can have identical digital external displays, different results regarding the degree of firing can be identified when processing the same ceramics under otherwise similar conditions.A different
24、 degree of firing does not only cause differences that can be judged directly by the human eye (e. g. colour and transparency), but also deviations that cannot be detected by eye. These are for instance the coefficient of thermal expansion, strength, and solubility of the dental opaque, dentine or e
25、namel materials, and the bonding strength to its substructure. Such changes may result in clinical failures (e. g. fractures) as well as discoloration and changed aesthetics of the dental ceramic restoration.This International Standard levels the currently existing differences between the final cali
26、bration of the dental furnaces based on the factory of origin through a final adjustment (that has to be carried out by all manufacturers in an identical way) of the temperature control in the firing chamber by means of a thermocouple at e.g. 800 C.Alternatively, the verification of the process can
27、be carried out using the thermocouple at 700 C or 900 C.iv ISO 2013 All rights reservedBS EN ISO 13078:2013Dentistry Dental furnace Test method for temperature measurement with separate thermocouple1 ScopeThis International Standard specifies a test method for the calibration of dental furnaces that
28、 are suitable for the heat treatment of silica-based dental ceramic restorations in the temperature range between 600 C and 1 050 C. This International Standard does not include furnaces intended to sinter zirconium oxide-frameworks (in the temperature range of 1 350C or higher).2 Normative referenc
