15、ration in thedirection most favorable for resisting stresses encountered inservice, as may be indicated to the fabricator by the purchaser.5.3 Forgings shall be free of splits, scale, cracks, flaws, andother imperfections not consistent with good commercialpractice (see Note 1). Offset or mismatch a

16、llowance, dependentupon part size and configuration, shall be within standardforging tolerances.NOTE 1Compliance to these requirements may be verified by TestMethod E 165 or Practice F 601 or other suitable methods.5.4 After all hot-working operations have been completed,the forgings shall receive a

17、n annealing treatment consisting ofheating the parts to an appropriate elevated temperature for aspecified dwell time followed by appropriate cooling to meetthe applicable metallurgical requirements specified herein.5.5 Optional identification marks, including the manufactur-ers logo, material desig

18、nation, heat code number, and impres-sion number, may be placed upon each forging, the method andlocation of which shall be specified by the purchaser.6. Chemical Composition6.1 When specified by the purchaser, the chemical compo-sition of either the forging bars or the completed forgings shallbe de

19、termined and confirmed by the forger, and shall meet theproduct analysis limits of the appropriate material specifica-tion.6.1.1 Hydrogen content must be determined on annealedforgings. Samples for hydrogen analysis shall be taken afterdescaling, pickling, or chemical milling, if these operations ar

20、eperformed.6.2 For referee purposes, Test Methods E 1409, E 1447, andE 2371 shall be used.7. Mechanical Requirements7.1 The mechanical properties of forgings shall be tested bythe forger and shall comply with the minimum mechanicalproperties as specified in Specifications F 136, F 1295,orF 1472.7.1.

21、1 Test specimens shall be taken from a representativeforging if possible, or from a representative forged test bar. Arepresentative test bar may only be used if the configuration issuch that a test bar cannot be obtained. Any specially forgedtest bar must be annealed with the forgings it represents.

22、7.1.2 Specimens for tension tests shall be machined andtested in accordance with Test Methods E8. Tensile propertiesshall be determined using a strain rate of 0.003 to 0.007in./in./min (mm/mm/min) through yield and then the crossheadspeed may be increased so as to produce fracture in approxi-mately

23、one additional minute.7.2 Number of Tests:7.2.1 Perform at least one tension test from each lot in thelongitudinal direction. Should this test result not meet thespecified requirements, test two additional test pieces represen-tative of the same lot, in the same manner, for each failed testpiece. Th

24、e lot shall be considered in compliance only if bothadditional test pieces meet the specified requirements.7.2.2 Tensile tests results for which any specimen fracturesoutside the gage length shall be considered acceptable, if boththe elongation and reduction of area meet the minimumrequirements spec

25、ified. Refer to Test Method E8, sections7.11.4 and 7.12.5.7.2.3 If either the elongation or reduction of area is less thanthe minimum requirement, discard the test and retest. Retestone specimen for each specimen that did not meet theminimum requirements.7.3 When desired, hardness may be specified o

26、n the pur-chase order or drawing and shall be determined in accordancewith Test Methods E10, E18,orE92.8. Special Requirements8.1 The microstructure shall be a fine dispersion of the alphaand beta phases resulting from processing in the alpha plus betaphase field. There shall be no continuous alpha

27、network at priorbeta grain boundaries. There shall be no coarse, elongatedalpha platelets. Alpha case, if present, shall be less than 0.020in. (0.5 mm) in thickness.9. Significance of Numerical Limits9.1 The following applies to all specified numerical limits inthis specification. To determine confo

28、rmance to these limits, anobserved or calculated value shall be rounded to the nearestunit in the last right hand digit used in expressing thespecification limit, in accordance with the rounding method ofPractice E29.10. Certification Requirements10.1 The supplier shall provide a certification that

29、thematerial was tested in accordance with this specification andmet all requirements. A report of the test results shall befurnished to the purchaser at the time of shipment.10.2 Gage length must be reported with elongation.11. Quality Program Requirements11.1 The supplier shall maintain a quality p

31、rpose of this specification is to characterize thechemical, mechanical, and metallurgical properties of wroughtannealed alpha plus beta titanium alloy forgings for surgicalimplants.X1.2 The microstructural requirements contained in thisspecification represent current general consensus with respectto

32、 optimization of mechanical properties for implant applica-tions.X1.3 The title of the specification was changed to cover thealpha plus beta titanium alloy forgings and the Scope definesthree specific compositions that have a similar microstructuresand mechanical properties. The hydrogen content is

33、nowrequired to be determined in the final condition that theforgings will be shipped to the purchaser and mechanicalproperties are now required to be reported.X2. BIOCOMPATIBILITYX2.1 No known surgical implant material has ever beenshown to be completely free of adverse reactions in the humanbody. T

34、he alloy compositions covered by this specification,however, have been subjected to testing in laboratory animals,and have been used clinically for more than a decade. Theresults of these studies indicate a well-characterized level oflocal biological response that is equal to or less than thatproduc
