Tech/Engineering - Materials (Plastics, Ceramics, etc.) / Dental Ceramics and Porcelains | | German term or phrase: abgewandelt | Neben der Festigkeit wurden auch für die Entwicklung der zahnmedizinischen Werkstoffe neue bruchmechanische Charakteristika eingeführt, wie z.B. ‚Risszähigkeit’, ‚Lebensdauerkonzept’, ‚unterkritisches Rißwachstum’ etc., sodass die heute verfügbaren Hochleistungswerkstoffe auf Aluminium- und Zirkoniumdioxidbasis nichts mehr mit der dem Geschirrporzellan abgewandelten Jacketkronenmassen zu tun haben.
Same sentence as my previous question. I know abgewandelt is "modified" or something along those lines, but what I can't work out is whether the jacket crowns were modified from or for the "Geschirrporzellan". I'm inclined to think "from", but the use of the dative suggests "for" or even "to". TIA for helping me clear this up. |
| | Clarification request(s) and responseMag_RaWa: 3:23am May 5, 2004: "mehr mit der dem" correctly copied? -
Rowan Morrell (asker): 3:25am May 5, 2004: Another Example - From earlier in my text:
"Zu Beginn des 20. Jahrhunderts begann dann Charles Land, Kronen aus der dem Porzellan abgewandelten Feldspatkeramik zu brennen – die Jacketkrone war geboren."
So here too, the felspathic porcelain is being modified from the regular porcelain?
Rowan Morrell (asker): 3:26am May 5, 2004: Copied and Pasted Exactly - But I guess the "der" should really be "den".

As I read it, the Jacketkronenmassen were derived from Geschirrporzellan. |

Explanation:
I'd say it's about a modified form of 'Geschirrporzellan'

\"dem...abgewandelt\" does not sound normal in German, so you can just go with the idea behind it - in my opinion

about your note: yes, that would be the same thing

about the other note: no \'der\' is correct. Even though I have never heard this structure with \'abgewandelt\' before, it follows this one: \"aus der dem Porzellan \'nachgeahmten\' Feldspatkeramik\".

and as a final note: that would be the same as: aus der Feldspatkeramik, die dem Porzellan nachgeahmt ist
