– By measuring lattice constants of a number of Ag‐Hg‐Zn alloys with γ‐phase structure, it has been shown that apart from a possible two‐phase field there exists a continuous solid solùtion between γ(Ag‐Hg) and γ(Ag‐Zn). A correlation between the Zn‐content in the γ 1 phase in set dental silver amalgam and the Zn‐content in the corresponding alloy has been determined.
