Evaluation of the mechanical properties of powder metallurgy Ti-6Al-7Nb alloy

Abstract: Titanium and its alloys are common biomedical materials owing to their combination of mechanical properties, corrosion resistance and biocompatibility. Powder metallurgy (PM) techniques can be used to fabricate biomaterials with tailored properties because changing the processing parameters, such as the sintering temperature, products with different level of porosity and mechanical performances can be obtained. This study addresses the production of the biomedical Ti-6Al-7Nb alloy by means of the master alloy … Show more

“…Titanium substrates for microbiological studies were prepared by a conventional powder metallurgy route applying a cold uniaxial charge of 7.9 tn/cm 2 followed by a sintering step at 1,250 • C for 120 min under high vacuum (10 −5 mbar), as described elsewhere by Bolzoni et al (2017). The starting Ti powders with a particle size below 75 µm were supplied by AP&C Inc., (Canada).…”

“…Additives of Mo, Ta, and Nb stabilize the β-phase and improve their fatigue strength, corrosion resistance, and elastic modulus, which should be similar to the elastic modulus of human bone [5,6]. However, due to their high production costs, their involvement in medical applications is limited [7,8]. Moreover, the majority of titanium alloys contain aluminum as an alloying agent, the ions of which damage nerve cells and block the bonding of proteins responsible for their regeneration.…”

“…Using raw powders to prepare the titanium alloy products instead of conventional melting and casting is proved as a feasible method with the economic benefits. Powder metallurgy (PM) titanium alloys parts can be produced through hot isostatic pressing, vacuum sintering and selective melting with qualified properties and refined microstructures 5,6 . In order to reduce the cost further and shorten the manufacturing period, fast consolidation approaches have been developed by the researchers like power forging and hot pressing 7,8 .…”
