Three types of amalgams, one conventional and two with a high copper content, were stored in phosphate-buffered 0.9% NaCl solution, at pH 6, for 35 weeks. Every 7 weeks the solutions were changed and analyzed with regard to Cu, Zn, Sn, Hg, and Ag. In one of the amalgam combinations, the conventional amalgam and one of the copper-rich amalgams in an area ratio of 2:1, contact between the amalgams clearly increased the amounts of Cu, Hg, and Ag released the first 14 weeks compared with when immersed in separate solutions. With the reversed area relation, Cu, Hg, and Ag decreased when they were in contact. The conventional amalgam in contact with the other copper-rich amalgam, in an area ratio of 2:1, reduced the amount of Cu but increased the Zn released. Polishing initially decreased the amounts of Cu and Zn released compared with the unpolished amalgams.
