No further reproductions authorized.5.2 FinishThe mill product may be furnished to theimplant manufacturer as descaled or pickled, sandblasted,chemically milled, groun
16、d, machined, peeled, polished, colddrawn, or as specified by the purchaser.5.3 ConditionMaterial shall be furnished in the annealed,cold worked, or hot rolled condition.6. Chemical Requirements6.1 The heat analysis shall conform to the chemical com-position of Table 1. Ingot analysis may be used for
17、 reporting allchemical requirements, except hydrogen. Samples for hydro-gen shall be taken from the finished mill product. The suppliershall not ship material outside the limits specified in Table 1.6.1.1 Requirements for the major and minor elementalconstituents are listed in Table 1. Also listed a
18、re importantresidual elements. Analysis for elements not listed in Table 1 isnot required to certify compliance with this specification.6.2 Product Analysis:6.2.1 Product analysis tolerances do not broaden the speci-fied heat analysis requirements but cover variations betweenlaboratories in the meas
19、urement of chemical content. Themanufacturer shall not ship material that is outside the limitsspecified in Table 1. The product analysis tolerances shallconform to Table 2.6.2.2 The product analysis is either for the purpose ofverifying the composition of a heat or manufacturing lot or todetermine
20、variations in the composition within the heat.6.2.3 Acceptance or rejection of a heat or manufacturing lotof material may be made by the purchaser on the basis of thisproduct analysis tolerance.6.3 For referee purposes, use Test Methods E 120, E 1409,and E 1447 or other analytical methods agreed upo
21、n betweenthe purchaser and the supplier.6.4 Ensure that the samples for chemical analysis arerepresentative of the material being tested. The utmost caremust be used in sampling titanium for chemical analysisbecause of its affinity for elements such as oxygen, nitrogen,and hydrogen. In cutting sampl
22、es for analysis, therefore, theoperation should be carried out insofar as possible in adust-free atmosphere. Cutting tools should be clean and sharp.Samples for analysis should be stored in suitable containers.7. Mechanical Requirements7.1 The material supplied under this specification shallconform
23、to the mechanical properties given in Table 3.7.2 Specimens for tension tests shall be machined and testedin accordance with Test Methods E8. Tensile properties shallbe determined using a strain rate of 0.003 to 0.007 in./in./min(mm/mm/min) through the specified yield and then the cross-head speed s
24、hall be increased so as to produce fracture inapproximately one additional minute.7.3 Number of TestsPerform a minimum of two tensiontests from each lot. A lot is defined as the total number of aspecific mill product produced under the same conditions atessentially the same time. Should either of th
25、e two testspecimens not meet the specified requirements, test two addi-tional test pieces representative of the same lot in the samemanner. The lot will be in compliance only if both additionaltest pieces meet the specified requirements. If a specimen failsoutside the gage, the test is null in accor
26、dance with TestMethods E8, and a retest shall be performed.8. Special Requirements8.1 The microstructure shall be a fine dispersion of the alphaand beta phases resulting from processing in the alpha plus betafield. There shall be no continuous alpha network at prior betagrain boundaries. There shall
27、 be no coarse, elongated alphaplatelets.8.2 Determine the beta transus temperature for each heat bya suitable method and report on the material certification ifrequired by the purchaser.8.3 Alpha case is not permitted for products supplied with amachined, ground, or chemically milled surface finish.
28、 Forother products, there shall be no continuous layer of alpha casewhen examined at 1003 magnification.9.

Program Requirements10.1 The producer shall maintain a quality assurance pro-gram as defined in ASQ C1.10.2 The manufacturer of
35、surgical implants shall be assuredof the producers quality assurance program for conformanceto the intent of ASQ C1 or other recognized program.11.

36、RATIONALEX1.1 The purpose of this specification is to characterize thecomposition and properties of wrought annealed, cold worked,or hot rolled Ti-6A1-7Nb titanium alloy bar and wire to ensureconsistency in the starting material used in the manufacture ofmedical devices, in particular of surgical im
37、plants.X1.2 The microstructural requirements contained in thisspecification represent the current general consensus of opinionwith respect to optimization of mechanical properties forimplant applications.X1.3 The minimum mechanical properties specified ensurea baseline of strength and ductility for
38、the highly stresseddevices that may be manufactured from this alloy.X1.4 The stress corrosion cracking resistance of this alloyis similar to Ti-6A1-4V alloy.X1.5 The UNS designation has been added, residualelement language has been included, alpha case informationhas been clarified, the inclusion re
39、quirement has been deletedbecause no standard method exists for determining the inclu-sion content in titanium alloys, and Appendix X2 Biocompat-ibility section has been added to the Rationale.X1.6 ISO standards are listed for reference only. Use of theISO standards in addition to or instead of the
40、preferred ASTMstandard may be negotiated between the purchaser andsupplier.X2. BIOCOMPATIBILITYX2.1 The material composition covered by this specifica-tion has been employed successfully in contact with soft tissueand bone for over a decade.X2.2 No known surgical implant has ever been shown to becom
41、pletely free of adverse reactions in the human body.However, long-term clinical experience has shown an accept-able level of biological response can be expected, if thematerial is used in appropriate applications.X2.3 The material in this specification has been subjectedto animal studies (5) and has
42、 been shown to produce a wellcharacterized level of biological response that is equal to orless than that produced by the reference material titanium. Thismaterial has been used clinically since 1986 (6, 7).F1295053Copyright by ASTM Intl (all rights reserved); Mon Nov 3 21:34:10 EST 2008Downloaded/p
