Description

Salt bath nitriding formula and processing method of martensitic stainless steel medical suture needle
Technical Field
The technology relates to a processing technology of a medical suture needle, in particular to a surface treatment technology of a martensite stainless steel medical suture needle, namely a salt bath nitriding formula and a using method thereof. The technology is used for improving the hardness and sharpness of the surface and the needle point of the martensitic stainless steel medical suture needle while keeping higher toughness.
Background
The medical stainless steel has become a medical implant material and a material for medical instruments widely used in clinic due to good biocompatibility, mechanical property, body fluid corrosion resistance, excellent processing and forming properties and low cost. Medical suture needles are very common and frequently used instruments in surgical operations, and are mostly manufactured by drilling or slotting a needle tail which uses stainless steel wires as raw materials. Different from instruments applied to non-living bodies, the medical suture needle is used for suturing human tissues in surgical operations, and has requirements on performance including difficult deformation, high elasticity, high toughness and high hardness of a needle tip so as to have higher sharpness besides the size and the shape.
Stainless steel for medical suture needles mainly comprises martensitic stainless steel and austenitic stainless steel. The martensitic stainless steel mainly comprises 2Cr13, 3Cr13, 4Cr13, 420J2 stainless steel and the like. The austenitic stainless steel mainly includes 12Cr18Ni9, 06Cr19Ni10 and the like.
In the medical suture needle standard (YY/T0043-2016) in the Chinese medical industry, the requirements of the medical suture needle performance mainly comprise two aspects of physical performance and corrosion resistance. The physical property requirements of the medical suture needle mainly comprise (1) hardness, and the needle point of the suture needle has higher hardness. The hardness of the martensite stainless steel medical suture needle is more than or equal to HV 520. (2) The elasticity of the sewing needle is good, and the sewing needle can recover after a certain amount of deformation. (3) The toughness, the suture needle should have good toughness, and the fracture does not occur in the toughness test. (4) The shape of the needle point is the same as that of a virtual needle point, and the needle point is not hooked after being loaded and pressed by a load at a stress application speed specified by YY/T0043-2016. (5) The suture needle has the requirement of corrosion resistance, and the surface state of the suture needle is not lower than the 5.4 b-level regulation in YY/T0149-2006.
Martensite type stainless steel suture needles such as 2Cr13, 3Cr13 and 4Cr13 can be improved in hardness and sharpness by obtaining martensite by quenching. The martensite stainless steel suture needle is made of soft steel wire, so that the suture needle can be processed and molded conveniently, such as bending and pinhole processing, after the processing and molding, the hardness and sharpness of the needle point of the suture needle are improved through quenching, and finally certain toughness is obtained through tempering. Under the process condition, in order to ensure higher hardness (not less than HV 520) and sharpness of the needle point of the suture needle, low-temperature tempering (heating temperature is not more than 250 ℃) is generally adopted, because the hardness and the sharpness of the needle point are reduced along with the rise of tempering temperature although the toughness of the suture needle is gradually increased, and the requirements on the hardness (not less than HV 520) and sharpness of the needle point are difficult to achieve.
The surface nitriding technology can effectively improve the hardness, the wear resistance and the corrosion resistance of the needle point part and the surface of the stainless steel suture needle by forming a nitriding layer on the surface, and simultaneously keeps the internal toughness. Wherein, liquid nitriding is a chemical heat treatment technology which causes active nitrogen atoms to permeate into a metal surface layer in a certain medium at a certain temperature to change the structure and the performance of the surface layer. The liquid nitriding, also known as salt bath nitriding, can strengthen the surface of stainless steel and improve the wear resistance, hardness, corrosion resistance and fatigue resistance. The liquid nitriding process has the characteristics of uniform heating, less deformation, quick heating, wide application range and the like.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method for processing a martensitic stainless steel medical suture needle, comprising the steps of:
the method comprises the following steps:

Step two:
the martensitic stainless steel suture needle is heated and then quenched. The heating temperature is set according to the specific steel type, and a water quenching mode or an oil quenching mode can be adopted, and the oil quenching mode is preferably adopted.
Step three:
1) salt bath nitriding: by adopting the salt bath formula of the low-temperature salt bath nitriding of the first aspect of the invention, all components are uniformly stirred, heated to 450 ℃, and the temperature is preserved to completely melt all components of the salt bath; performing salt bath treatment on the martensitic stainless steel suture needle, wherein the treatment temperature is between 450 ℃ and 500 ℃, the nitriding time is 20-60min according to the diameter size of the suture needle, and taking out the suture needle after the salt bath for air cooling.
2) Cleaning and drying: cleaning the stainless steel suture needle treated in the step 1) with water and then drying.
The salt bath nitriding formula of the martensitic stainless steel medical suture needle and the processing method thereof also have the following advantages.
Firstly, compared with the traditional martensitic stainless steel medical suture needle treatment process, the salt bath nitriding treatment adopted by the invention can obtain a medical suture needle product with better comprehensive performance. The traditional martensitic stainless steel medical suture needle treatment process adopts quenching and low-temperature tempering, and in the tempering process, along with the rise of temperature, the toughness of the material is increased, but the hardness and the sharpness of a needle point are reduced, so that in order to enable the hardness and the sharpness of the suture needle to meet the requirements (not more than HV 520), only low-temperature tempering (not more than 300 ℃) can be adopted, but the toughness after tempering is poor, and a great brittle failure risk exists. The invention adopts liquid nitriding at 450-550 ℃ after quenching, the hardness of the needle point part and the needle body surface is improved to HV580-680 due to the nitriding layer formed after nitriding treatment, and the hardness of the quenched martensite at the core part is reduced to HV300-400 after medium temperature tempering, so that the hardened martensite has higher toughness, and the contradiction among high hardness, high sharpness and high toughness of a single martensite structure is solved. After the suture needle is treated by the method, the needle point and the needle surface have high hardness and high sharpness, and the needle body of the suture needle has higher toughness, so that the brittle failure tendency of the suture needle can be obviously reduced.
Secondly, the melting point of the salt bath nitriding formula is lower, the melting point temperature of the formula is lower than 450 ℃, and the salt bath has good fluidity at the temperature of 450-2+And Li+Plays a role in promoting the penetration in the nitriding process. The conventional liquid nitriding treatment temperature is high (generally above 600 ℃), chromium atoms in stainless steel are easy to combine with active nitrogen atoms at high temperature to generate chromium and nitrogen compounds which are separated out at a martensite grain boundary of a nitriding layer, so that chromium is poor on the surface layer, and the corrosion resistance of the stainless steel is reduced. Therefore, the stainless steel after the salt bath nitriding treatment of the present invention has higher corrosion resistance than the conventional liquid nitriding treatment. Secondly, the salt bath nitriding formula of the formula is used at a relatively low temperature, so that toxic substances CN easily generated by cyanate at high temperature are avoidedThe harm to the environment and personnel is reduced.
