Amalgam (dentistry) packs the plastic mass, before it sets, into the cavity. The amalgam expands ≈0.1% over 6–8 hours on setting. The final structure is a metal matrix composite, where γ, η and γ phases, are a matrix for unreacted original alloy, minus the fast-reacting β-phase and excess Sn. Amalgam is a mixture of two or more metals (alloy) with mercury which has been purified first by distillation to remove impurities. Currently, major components of the alloy are silver tin and copper. The composition of the alloy powder is controlled by ISO standard for dental amalgam alloy (ISO 1559) to control the
Real element formula_1, Every involution is strongly real. Furthermore, every element that is the product of two involutions is strongly real. Conversely, every strongly real element is the product of two involutions. If and formula_1 is real in formula_2 and formula_30 is odd, then formula_1 is strongly real in formula_2. The extended centralizer of an element formula_1 of a group formula_2 is defined as making the extended centralizer of an element formula_1 equal to the normalizer of the set The extended centralizer of an element of a group formula_2 is always a subgroup of formula_2. For involutions or non-real elements, centralizer and
