Definitions

  • the present disclosure relates to a titanium alloy with a low elastic modulus, including no elements harmful to the human body, and more particularly, to a beta-based titanium alloy with a low elastic modulus, including titanium (Ti), niobium (Nb) and zirconium (Zr), and further including tantalum (Ta), hafnium (Hf), molybdenum (Mo), tin (Sn), and the like.
  • Titanium is widely used in the fields of aerospace, weaponry, nuclear power, sports and leisure, biomedicine and the like due to its high specific strength (strength/weight), high corrosion resistance, excellent mechanical properties including high temperature properties, and excellent biocompatibility.
  • Biomedical metals have been developed for use in implants for replacing bones, joints, teeth, and the like.
  • the biomedical metals are used for manufacturing a variety of prostheses such as artificial bones, artificial joints, and dental prostheses.
  • biomedical metals should be excellent in biocompatibility as well as mechanical properties, corrosion resistance, and chemical resistance. That is, biomedical metals should be non-toxic and not induce allergies in the human body.
  • Titanium and titanium alloys have been used as biomaterial for replacing stainless steel. In the beginning, pure titanium and titanium alloy such as Ti-6Al-4V were used as biomaterial.
  • biocompatible titanium alloys that have been developed to solve the problem of cytotoxicity are Ti-6Al-7Nb and Ti-5Al-2.5Fe, which are second-generation titanium alloys.
  • the stress shield effect is caused by elastic modulus difference between natural bone with a low elastic modulus and biocompatible material with a high elastic modulus.
  • a metal implant with a high elastic modulus bears most of the load applied to the region around the implant, and the natural bone in the region does not bear any tension, compression and bending for a long time.
  • the thickness and the weight of the natural bone are reduced gradually, causing serious problems such as osteoporosis around the implant.
  • This phenomenon is referred to as the “stress shield effect.”
  • the bonding strength between the natural bone and the artificial implant also decreases, resulting in decreased service life of the implant.
  • Ti-13Nb-13Zr (ASTM F1713), Ti-12Mo-6Zr-2Fe (ASTM F1813), Ti-15Mo (ASTM F2066), and the like have been developed throughout the world to solve the above mentioned problems.
  • a variety of alloys such as Ti-35Nb-5Ta-7Zr and Ti-16Nb-13Ta-4Mo in a similar composition range are being developed.
  • the titanium alloys hitherto developed have an elastic modulus of approximately 60 GPa to approximately 80 GPa, which is still much higher than the elastic modulus of natural bones that range from approximately 10 GPa to approximately 30 GPa. Accordingly, the problem of “stress shield effect” has not been completely solved yet. Therefore, there is a considerable demand for a material that is not harmful to the human body and, at the same time, has a lower elastic modulus.
  • the present disclosure provides a titanium alloy composition that is not harmful to the human body, has an elastic modulus as low as bones of the human body, and at the same time, is melted and cast easily and cost-effectively.
  • a beta phase generally has a low elastic modulus
  • the inventors selected alloying elements of titanium alloy on the basis of whether they can serve as a beta stabilizer in titanium alloy to lower the elastic modulus of titanium alloy.
  • the inventors selected the alloying elements of titanium alloy on the basis of whether they are harmless to the human body in terms of biochemical suitability, and whether the density, melting temperature and boiling temperature thereof are economically suitable when compared to titanium. Resultantly, as beta stabilizers satisfying the above requirements, niobium (Nb) and zirconium (Zr) were selected.
  • the inventors designed a titanium alloy composition having a low elastic modulus using a semi-experimental method for designing and developing an alloy.
  • the method includes calculating the covalent bond order and the energy level of the electrons according to the content of each alloying element, using the electronic state, which is the core of the discrete variational (DV)-Xa molecular orbital method.
  • micro-properties of the material can be analyzed approximately from the electronic state of the material by interpreting the Schrodinger equation and the like.
  • the inventors calculated the bonding order, B o and the energy level of the electrons, M d of the above-described alloying elements through the DV-Xa molecular orbital method, and discovered a beta-based titanium alloy composition with a low elastic modulus from there-among.
  • the titanium alloy with a low elastic modulus includes from 37 wt. % to 41 wt. % niobium (Nb), from 5 wt. % to 8 wt. % zirconium (Zr), and a balance of titanium, with unavoidable impurities.
  • the titanium alloy has an elastic modulus of 55 GPa or lower.
  • Zirconium has very high corrosion resistance in hot water under acidic or basic atmosphere. Zirconium forms oxide film even in air, showing high corrosion resistance. Zirconium is a biocompatible metal without the cytotoxic effect. It is preferable that zirconium is contained in the titanium alloy in a range from 5 wt. % to 8 wt. %. This is because the elastic modulus of the ternary alloy of titanium, niobium and zirconium increases considerably outside this range, so that it cannot be applied to a living body. It is more preferable that zirconium is contained in the titanium alloy in a range from 5 wt. % to 7 wt. %.
  • the elastic modulus of the titanium alloy it is possible to lower the elastic modulus of the titanium alloy to 50 GPa or lower, as well as to 55 GPa or lower.
  • one or more elements selected from tantalum (Ta), hafnium (Hf), molybdenum (Mo), and tin (Sn) may be further added in the titanium alloy in a range of 3 wt. % or lower. It is preferable that they are added in a range from 1 wt. % to 3 wt. % in view of the elastic modulus factor. In this case, it is preferable that the content of niobium is from 37 wt. % to 39 wt. %, and the content of zirconium is from 5 wt. % to 7 wt. %.
  • Tantalum (Ta) is ductile, and has high mechanical strength even at high temperature. Tantalum forms a stable film with high electric resistance so that it is relatively free from oxidation in air. In addition, tantalum is highly resistant to acid, and has excellent compatibility with the human body, so that it can be used for cementing bones. Tantalum, when alloyed in titanium, serves as a major beta stabilizer.
  • Hafnium (Hf) has characteristics very similar to zirconium, and has excellent corrosion-resistance and bio-compatibility. It serves as a beta stabilizer when alloyed in titanium.
  • Molybdenum (Mo) has a relatively high melting point. However, it has excellent thermal conductivity, high corrosion resistance even in strong acid, and very favorable mechanical properties over a wide temperature range. It serves as a beta stabilizer when alloyed in titanium.
  • Tin (Sn) is stable in an air and has excellent ductility. It is soluble in acids and alkalis, and has a very low melting temperature of about 232° C. It is stable in the human body and thus widely used in the fields of table ware, plating and the like. It may also serve as a beta stabilizer when alloyed in titanium.
  • Addition of the above elements in an amount greater than 3 wt. % may affect the titanium-niobium-zirconium ternary system to increase the elastic modulus. Accordingly, the maximum content of the above-mentioned elements in the titanium alloy is set to 3 wt. % or lower.
  • the titanium alloy in accordance with the exemplary embodiments can be fabricated by various melting or casting methods such as vacuum induction melting (VIM), vacuum arc remelting (VAR), induction skull melting (ISM), plasma arc melting (PAM), electron beam melting (EBM) and the like.
  • VIM vacuum induction melting

  • ISM induction skull melting
  • PAM plasma arc melting
  • EBM electron beam melting
