One conventional amalgam and two amalgams with higher copper content were stored in contact with various dental casting alloys in phosphate-buffered 0.9% NaCl solution, pH 6, at 37 degrees C during 35 weeks. Every 7 weeks the solutions were changed, and the corrosion was measured by analyzing the solutions for the amount of Cu, Zn, Sn, Hg, Ag, Co, Cr, and Ni. In the first 7 weeks the amalgams immersed in contact with acrylic or Co-Cr alloys released small amounts of elements, whereas the release was larger when the amalgams were in contact with the gold alloys. During the rest of the experiment the release of elements tended towards the same level, independent of the casting alloy in contact. In general, the high copper amalgams released more corrosion products into the solutions than the conventional one. The release of corrosion products was strongly pH-dependent. Changing the solutions more often and saturating the solutions with oxygen decreased the amounts of Hg and Ag released.
