[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a method for surface treatment of titanium alloys (including intermetallic compounds), and in particular, titanium alloys that can easily obtain surfaces with suppressed metallic luster. The present invention relates to a matte treatment method.

[Prior Art] In recent years, orthodontics has become popular in Japan, and aesthetics during the orthodontic treatment are particularly required. It is very difficult to color or make it matte without losing its superelastic effect, and it is currently used in a state with metallic luster.

That is, anodic oxidation and thermal oxidation methods are being considered for coloring titanium alloys, and chemical etching methods are being considered for matte treatment methods, but they have the following problems. .

The anodic oxidation method forms a transparent oxide film on the surface of the object by anodizing the object to be treated, and the thermal oxidation method forms a transparent oxide film on the surface of the object by maintaining it in a high-temperature oxidizing atmosphere. Interference colors are produced by multiple reflections that occur with the metal surface, and the above interference colors take on a variety of color tones as the film becomes thicker. Interference colors strongly reflect specific wavelengths, so the color tone varies. The disadvantage is that the spectral width is narrow and only colorful monochromatic tones can be obtained.

Furthermore, in the anodic oxidation method, the oxide film has a low density 6 strength and requires a strengthening treatment to improve the adhesion strength after the film is formed, and in the thermal oxidation method, it takes a long time to develop the color and tends to cause uneven color development. Another problem is that the possibility of losing shape memory properties also increases.

On the other hand, in the chemical etching method, fine irregularities are formed on the surface of the workpiece through chemical treatment, and the metallic luster is suppressed by diffused reflection of light. The effects are highly dependent on each other, and as a result of various studies on titanium alloys, a satisfactory surface condition could not be obtained.

The voltage during the above DC electrolysis is applied with the object to be treated as an anode, but if it is less than 2.5V, unevenness will be formed on the surface but it will not be possible to obtain a uniform and fine surface texture.
If the voltage exceeds 5V, the surface becomes smooth and metallic luster cannot be suppressed, so the voltage is set in the range of 2.5 to 5.5V.

[Function] In the present invention, when electrolysis is performed in an electrolytic solution using a titanium alloy as an anode, titanium and other contained elements are eluted from the surface of the titanium alloy. At this time, if the voltage during electrolysis is set within a predetermined range, pitting corrosion will occur on the surface of the titanium alloy, resulting in a surface with fine and uniform irregularities, thereby suppressing metallic luster.
