Significance and Use3.1 The surface treatments documented in this practice areintended to improve the corrosion resistance of metallicsurgical implants manufactured from iron, cobalt, titanium, andtantalum base materials.3.2 Iron particles, ceramic media, and other f

These par-ticles should be removed to minimize localized rust formationand superficial blemishes.3.3 The various chemical and

Description of Acceptable Surface Characteristics4.1 Metallic implants, when inspected in accordance withthis practice, shall be free of surface imperfections

United States1environmentally assisted cracking of titanium and its alloys should beavoided.5.2.2 Amethod such as one of the following for the removalof adherent foreign material, if necessary.5.2.2.1 Hot alkaline cleaner used as recommended.5.2.2
17、.2 Alkaline cleaner applied electrochemically as rec-ommended.NOTE 2Avoid cathodic cleaning of metals known to be susceptible tohydrogen contamination and anodic cleaning of metals known to besusceptible to pitting. In addition, testing to confirm that acidic cleaningwill not affect the mechanical p
18、roperties of alloys susceptible to hydrogencontamination effects should be considered .5.2.2.3 Ultrasonically agitated cleaning agent.5.2.3 An acidic cleaning process may be used. For titanium,titanium alloys, and tantalum, some possible cleaning pro-cesses may be found in Guide B600.NOTE 3Before an
19、 acidic cleaning, degreasing shall be consideredwhere appropriate to make the acidic cleaning effective in a uniformmanner.5.2.3.1 If acidic cleaning methods are used, this shall bestated in the implant production specification.5.3 A neutralizing treatment shall be carried out whereappropriate.5.4 A
20、n adequate rinsing operation shall be carried out.5.5 An adequate drying cycle shall follow.6. Final Surface Treatment6.1 Implants shall be given a final surface treatment beforethey are packaged.Anumber of different surface treatments areacceptable, including acid treatment, electropolishing,anodiz
21、ing, and oxidation. The following surface treatmentsshould not be considered restrictive:6.2 Final nitric acid surface treatments are as follows:6.2.1 Immerse in 20 to 45 volume % nitric acid at roomtemperature for a minimum of 30 min. The room temperaturepassivation treatment is equivalent to the N
22、itric 2 treatment ata temperature range from 70 to 90F (21 to 32C) in Specifi-cation A967. For an accelerated process, a 20 to 25 volume %acid solution, heated at a temperature in the range from 120 to140F (49 to 60C), may be used for a minimum of 20 min.(See Specification A967 and Practice A380).6.
23、2.1.1 This treatment provides passivation by surface oxi-dation and is able to dissolve certain foreign material thatmight be present from previous operations; it is thereforeparticularly recommended when no other treatments take placethat would remove such foreign material.6.2.2 Use a neutralizing
24、procedure for product designs inwhich acidic liquid could be trapped.6.2.3 A thorough water rinsing process and a drying processare essential.6.3 A final electropolishing procedure can provide passivesurface conditions and cleansing from certain foreign materialfor stainless steel, cobalt, titanium,
25、 and tantalum alloys (seeSpecification A967).6.4 Electrochemical anodizing processes for titanium andtantalum base materials can provide similar passivating andcleaning effects as the electrochemical polishing procedureshave. Alternative oxidation treatments can render passivesurfaces as well.6.5 If
26、 acceptable alternative surface treatments for implantsare used, these treatments should be specified in the productionprocedure documentation.6.6 If marking of implants is performed after the finalsurface treatment, it must be evaluated whether a secondarypassivation treatment is necessary or not.7
27、. Product Marking7.1 Markings are applied to the implant surfaces to providetraceability if the size and configuration of the implant aresufficient for such markings. To minimize potential adverseeffects, it is necessary to use an appropriate marking procedureand technique and to select a suitable l
28、ocation for the markingof the implant.7.1.1 Details on marking are found in Practice F983.7.2 Identify or label metallic implants in a manner that willminimize potential impairment of the mechanical properties orcorrosion resistance and will not elicit adverse tissue response.7.3 Locate the marking
29、or labeling on the implant at a pointof low stress in such a manner as not to intersect the edges ofdrilled holes, countersinks, or edges of implants. Indicate thelocation of the marking on the manufacturing drawing of theimplant.7.4 The marking nomenclature shall be documented.7.5 Some methods of m
30、arking are as follows:7.5.1 Mechanical imprinting of round-bottom and round-edge characters,7.5.2 Chemical etching using an anodic electrolyticprocedure,7.5.3 Marking with a round rotating burr under low-contactpressure,7.5.4 Casting of markings into the surface using round-edgeand round-bottom char
31、acters,7.5.5 Marking with vibrator-type contact,7.5.6 Electro-pencil marking, and7.5.7 Marking with laser beam.7.6 Depending on the implant, its material, and the type ofmarking method and procedure, the marking may be appliedbefore or after the final surface treatment. (See 6.6).8. Inspection8.1 Th
32、e surfaces of the finished implants, at least of repre-sentative samples from a production lot, shall be inspectedusing visual examination with the unaided eye (with visioncorrected if necessary). Other surface inspection methods atleast as selective as unaided visual examination may be used inaddit
33、ion to or instead of unaided visual examination.9.

RATIONALEX1.1 The surface treatment and marking of implants caninflu
34、ence the following: local tissue response, bonding or lackof bonding to tissues as indicated by the application, andfatigue strength of implants.X1.2 Local tissue response of metallic implants is affectedby corrosion that, in turn, may be affected by embedded foreignparticles and other factors. Fore
35、ign material on the surfaces asa result of manufacturing operations may jeopardize thecompatibility even in the absence of corrosion or may affectcontacting implant components. Specifications and control ofsurface characteristics to inhibit local undesirable tissue re-sponse are therefore required.X
36、1.3 Limited studies have indicated the nitric acid passiva-tion treatments specified in this practice can neutralizeendotoxin3,4left on an implant surface, while other passivationtreatments (such as those referenced in Specification A967)cannot or have not been evaluated for this. In light of thisin
37、formation, it is imperative that the implant manufacturerobserve the intended purposes of processes specified in thispractice, such as described in Section 3, and note that neutral-ization of endotoxin is not among them. There are manydifferent processes that can neutralize endotoxin, and fulfilloth
38、er purposes, some of which have been published.3,4Thispractice does not currently include biological contaminants inits scope.X1.4 The fatigue strength of implants is affected by thetopography of the surfaces, residual stresses, and structure. Thefatigue strength of a component may be determined exp
39、eri-mentally. Therefore, to evaluate or test the fatigue strength offinished implants, they should have surface structures, residualstresses, surface treatments, and other characteristics that arerepresentative of the manufacturing process by which theimplant is produced.SUMMARY OF CHANGESCommittee
