Research Abstract |
In the present study, Alloy design of Ti-Zr based alloys were conducted aiming development of biomedical alloys with biological safety. With titanium-zirconium-niobium ternary alloy compositions, two kind of alloys, i.e. high strength alloys and low elastic modulus alloys, were developed. The high strength alloys were obtained by relatively small amount of Nb addition to the binary Ti-Zr alloy (ratio of Ti:Zr was fixed to unity) followed by suitable aging heat treatment. The low elastic modulus alloys were developed as the beta phase alloys by relatively large amount of Nb addition to the binary alloy and quenching. Both alloys exhibited better properties as compared to the conventional biomedical titanium alloys. Along with the alloy design, mechanical property evaluation of developed alloys were carried out with conventional tensile test together with torsional test and combined (tensile/torsional) test. Additionally, tensile fatigue test, torsional fatigue test and combined fatigue test were conducted to investigate fatigue property. Fatigue life estimation of torsional and combined fatigue from data of the tensile fatigue life was also carried out. It was shown that using of Basquin parameter on the von Mises type equivalent stress and consideration of the size effect led to good fatigue life estimation.
