Biomain’s products in titanium dioxide are especially developed for dental restorations. Biomain Zirkonia is biocompatible and is composed by commercially pure titanium grade 2.
For copings we recommend a wall thickness of at least 0.4 mm and for bridges at least 0.5 mm. The connectors should have a cross section of at least 6 mm 2 .
We recommend minimum 3 mm height and 2 mm width for the connectors. We allow 15 mm extension.
Use only veneering materials and processes suitable for the coefficient of thermal expansion of Biomain
Zirkonium (α=9,7 x 10 -6 m/m°C, at 0-540°C). Always follow the instructions of the ceramic manufacturer!
After mechanical preparation of the surface, the product should be blasted with Al

Could have an irritating effect.
The product could be allergy-inducing in case of prolonged contact.
Measures in case of spillage
Use mechanic collection. The material should be disposed according to local regulation. Rests should be mixed with five parts sand and be stored separate from flammable materials.
Operation
Avoid dust formation. Avoid temperatures over 30°C and direct sunlight. Good ventilation of the workplace is recommended. Protective gloves are recommended, no special requirements for the material.
Suitable extinguishing media
Special fire extinguisher for metal fires (class D according to EN 3 or equivalent), do not use water. Dry sand or salt could also be used.
Extingguishing media that cannot be used for safety reasons
Water
Carbon dioxide
ABC-powder
Foam
Special hazards measures in the event of fire
Burning titanium reacts with water and frees hydrogen.
Special protective measures in the event of fire
Avoid sources of ignition (as open flames, heat, static discharge). Do not smoke.
Additional advice
Avoid dust cloud formation.
