Description
SINTERED MATERIAL COMPRISING STABILIZED ZIRCONIA, ALUMINA AND RARE EARTH ALUMINATE PLATELETS , MANUFACTURING METHOD AND USES
The present invention relates to a material based on a partially stabilized zirconia matrix, and to a process for the preparation and use of the material. The material according to the invention can be employed, for example, as a sintered compact for various fields of application. Tetragonally stabilized zirconia materials are known in the prior art. They usually have a high mechanical strength and a relatively high fracture toughness. In addition, they are biocompatible.
As a disadvantage of these materials, their relatively low hydrothermal resistance has been found. In a humid atmosphere, the materials lose strength. A number of attempts have been made already in the prior art to improve their hydrothermal resistance. Thus, a significantly improved hydrothermal resistance from the alloying of alumina in concentrations of less than 0.5% by weight and applying sinter temperatures of 1350 0C over that of conventionally prepared tetragonally stabilized zirconia has been published in the form of a product data sheet (TOSOH ZIRCONIA POWDER "E" GRADES - new improved zirconia powder; printed April 03 in Japan).
In an earlier work, the coating of the zirconia grains with the stabilizing yttrium oxide has been described, and an amount of 0.1% by weight of alumina was already contained in this composition (W. Burger et al., Journal of Materials Science: Materials in Medicine 8 (1997) 113-118; C. Piconi et al., Biomaterials 19 (1998) 1489-1494). It was attempted to create improved materials.
Further, EP-A-O 466 836 relates to reinforcement of ceramic materials with platelets. This document relates to a ceramic body consisting of from 10 to 99% by volume of a zirconia matrix that is partially stabilized and from 1 to 90% by volume of SrAli2Oig platelets with an aspect ratio of > 2. The molar ratio of SrO :
AI2O3 is specified to be 0.01 or 0.02 to 0.2 or 0.3. In the stoichiometric
composition, the ratio of SrO : AI2O3 = 1 :6 = 0.17. Thus, alumina and zirconia may be in excess.
EP-A-O 542 815 relates to a sintered molding consisting of a matrix material formed from an alumina/chromium oxide mixed crystal and embedded into the zirconia. As stabilizing oxides, oxides of cerium, praseodymium, terbium or yttrium are employed. The stabilizing oxides are added in such amounts that more than 90% by volume of the zirconia is in the tetragonal modification. The molar ratio between the zirconia containing the stabilizing oxides and chromium oxide is from 1000: 1 to 20: 1. In particular, a material is described that comprises a matrix whose proportion is 60 to 98% by volume and which consists of 67.1% by volume of an AI2O3-Cr2O3 mixed crystal and from 0.8 to 32.9% by volume of hexagonal SrAli2_xCrx0i9 platelets as well as 2-40% by volume of tetragonally stabilized zirconia.
DE-A- 198 50 366 relates to a sintered compact with a matrix material that contains, in addition to an alumina/chromium oxide mixed crystal, another mixed crystal selected from at least one mixed crystal according to the general formulas stated therein and contains alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, cadmium, lead or mercury and rare earth metals.
M. Miura, H. Hongoh, T. Yogo, S. Hirano and T. Fujii disclose in "Formation of plate like lanthanum-β- Aluminate crystal in Ce-TZP matrix" (J. Mat. ScL, 29 (1994), 262 - 268) besides a material system Ce-TZP/AI203/La203 the influence of grain size of used aluminium oxide particles on platelet formation when using very fine powders. It was found a rather independent size of the platelets having a rather course grain size in the matrix independent of the sinter temperature used. Formation of platelets has been monitored beyond 1.500 0C and the complete formation of platelets started about 1.600 ° C.
K. Tsukuma and T. Takahata, (Mat. Res. Soc. Syp. Pore, Vol. 78 (1987), 123 - 135) disclose a composition of material: ZrO2 (2 Mol-% (= 3,6 wt-%)Y2O3), AI2O3 and La2O3 and disclose i.a. in table 2 40 wt-% LaAIuOi8. The formation occurs at
1.450 0C; the preparation of samples is performed with sintering at 1.500 0C, followed by an hot isostatic pressing process also performed at 1.500 0C. The Y-
TZP/β-LaAI2θ3-mixture is not so deformable as a Y-TZP/AI2θ3-mixture and based on this result it can be suggested that platelets take care for the suppression of a plastic deformation (p.133). Plastic deformation and fracture toughness are in a direct relation. To the skilled person these results do not suggest any relation between platelet formation and increase of fracture toughness.
K. Tsukuma (J. Am. Ceram. Soc, 83(200), 3219 - 3221) discloses the system Y- TZP: CeO2: AI2O3 in a composition of 60:9,05:30,95. A formation of platelets during sintering in oxidizing atmosphere does not take place. During sintering in reducing atmosphere a new platelet formation can be monitored at a temperature of 1.400 0C. At a temperature of 1.500 0C in reducing atmosphere a platelet formation can be monitored. In the mechanical characterization the platelet containing material does not differ substantially from the material Y-TZP/AI2O3 so that the author concludes: "The high-temperature bending strength of the converted Oc-AI2O3 composite was almost the same as that of the β-Ce2O3 HAI2O3 composite". Also these experiments teach the skilled person that there is no relation between increasing fracture toughness and platelet reinforced ceramics. Furthermore, no lanthanoxide is used.
The fracture toughness of the Y-TZP materials is still too low today for many applications.
The object of the invention is to provide a material having an improved hydrothermal resistance, high strength and fracture toughness. This object is achieved by the material according to the invention. The material according to the invention comprises: from 98-50% by volume of zirconia as a matrix, which is stabilized with i) either of from about 2 to about 3 mole percent of yttria ii) or of from about 10 to about 15 mole percent of ceria; iii) or a mixture of ceria and yttria in the range of amounts as given in i) and ii) the stabilizing oxides may be substituted against each other in a ratio from 1 :99 to 99: 1 and a maximum stabilization of 3 mole
percent related to pure yttria and 15 mole percent related to pure ceria respectively are not exceeded, and wherein the term mole percent is related to the zirconia matrix and wherein the zirconia matrix is obtainable from a) a powder of particles of zirconia having a mean particle size of <_
0.35 μm, b) the particles are coated with the stabilizing oxides yttria and/or ceria for stabilizing zirconia, c) a stabilization of the tetragonal phase is performed via a diffusion reaction by a sintering process, and from about 2 to about 50% by volume of alumina of which from about 5 to about 90% by volume is in the form of hexagonal platelets of general formula REAIuOis which are formed at sinter temperatures of less than 1 500 0C. A material comprising a composition of 3 mole percent yttria and 15 mole percent ceria are not encompassed by the present invention due to the conditions
The symbol RE means one or more representatives of rare earth metals.
The particle sizes are measured by means of the sedimentation method or the LASER-flection-granulometry.
In one embodiment of the invention the material comprises a volume fraction of the hexagonal platelets from about 10 to about 75 % by volume.
The material according to the invention exhibits a high hydrothermal stability.
In one embodiment, the hexagonal platelets of the material according to the invention may contain lanthanum oxide.
In its chemical composition, the material according to the invention is based on a tetragonally stabilized zirconia matrix. Homogeneously distributed globular alumina particles are incorporated into this matrix. Parts of these particles react with the platelet-forming rare earth oxide during the sintering process to form hexagonal platelets of general formula REAIUOI8. The aspect ratio of these hexagonal
platelets is at least 2. The abundance of the platelets relative to globular alumina in the zirconia matrix is controlled by the alloyed amount of alumina and rare earth oxide.
The material according to the invention can be prepared by a process comprising the following steps: grinding the powder mixture in aqueous suspension; adding a binder; eliminating coarse particles; spray-drying; - pressing; sintering.
A preferred form of the sintering process is hot isostatic postcompaction. When this process is applied, the compact is presintered at first to a density at which a closed porosity is reached. The thus presintered compact is subsequently subjected to a second temperature treatment, an isostatic pressure of from 1 to 150 MPa acting on the component during such temperature treatment. This process step is followed by a further temperature treatment under normal pressure in order to release any residual stress.
Alternatively to pressing, the material may also be admixed with organic auxiliaries in order to become flowable at higher temperatures. This flowable composition is processed by the injection molding method.
The material according to the invention is particularly suitable for preparing ceramic compacts that can be employed in many technical fields.
The ceramic compact according to the invention is obtainable by sintering the material according to the invention.
The sintered compacts according to the invention are characterized by a high mechanical strength of > 800 MPa as measured according to DIN EN ISO 6872, a high fracture toughness of > 6 MPa-m1/2 as measured according to DIN CEN/TS 14425-5, a modulus of elasticity of < 250 GPa as measured according to DIN EN
843 Part 2 and a Vickers hardness HV0.5 < 1500 as measured according to DIN 50113.
The invention also relates to a process for preparing a ceramic compact according to the invention by sintering the material according to the invention. Due to its low modulus of elasticity and its improved fracture toughness, the compact according to the invention can be employed in the medical field as a high strength and tough material for bridges in the orthodontic field, as a dental implant, as a hip, knee, shoulder, ankle and finger implant.
In engineering, in the mechanical field, the compact according to the invention can be employed, in particular, as a wear component with sealing properties and a high damage tolerance due to its high mechanical strength and its low, for ceramic materials, modulus of elasticity.
The invention is further illustrated by the following Examples.
Examples 1-12
The material mixtures summarized in Table 1 were first dispersed in water, and the suspension obtained was subsequently deagglomerated and homogenized in a mixed grinding operation. After having been separated from the milling balls, the ground suspension was admixed with a temporary binder. Subsequently, ready-to- press granules were prepared by applying spray-drying technology. From these ready-to-press granules, specimens were pressed and sintered without pressure.
