Variation in Mechanical Properties of Ti-13Nb-13Zr Depending on Annealing Temperature

Abstract: Ti-13Nb-13Zr alloy is an orthopedic implant material possessing good mechanical properties, corrosion resistance, and biocompatibility. An international standard suggests a heat treatment known as “capability aging” for this alloy. This study provides extensive data of mechanical properties under a wide temperature condition built around the capability-aging process. Specifically, it investigates the effect of annealing temperature (573–973 K) on mechanical properties (i.e., yield strength, tensile strength, h… Show more

“…However, based on the present investigation results, it was found that both the hardness and elastic modulus decreased significantly in the surface layer of hardened alloy with increasing hardening temperature ( Table 1 ). The tendency to lower the hardness with increasing the titanium alloy’s treatment temperature was also noticed elsewhere [ 42 ]. The Ti–13Nb–13Zr alloy hardened at 700 °C had the highest microhardness and modulus of elasticity, 12.8 GPa and 180 GPa, respectively.…”

“…The Ti-13Zr-13Nb alloy belongs to the newest class of biomedical alloys. This alloy is highly resistant to corrosion and simultaneously exhibits a low elastic modulus, high strength, and excellent hot and cold workability, thus meeting the stringent requirements for materials used for medical implants [ 53 , 54 ]. The mechanical properties of Ti-13Zr-13Nb alloy can be tailored in a wide range by hot working, cold working, and heat treatment.…”

“…Since there are many defects (holes, impurity atoms and dislocations) at the grain boundary, and the atoms at the grain boundary deviate from the equilibrium, and hence, have higher energy, the diffusion coefficient at the grain boundary is generally greater than that in the bulk. At room temperature, the irregular arrangement of the atoms at the grain boundaries will hinder the movement of dislocations, resulting in high strength and hardness [36] of the NEG films at macroscopic scale. The grain boundary is like a shortcircuit for the residual gas atoms to diffuse much easier at a lower activation temperature.…”
