RATIONALEX1.1 The primary reason for this specification is to char-acterize composition and properties to ensure consistency inthe starting material used, directly or as modified by
31、forging,casting, or shape forming, in the manufacturing of medicaldevices.X1.2 The minimum mechanical properties for sheet andstrip supplied in the annealed condition are generally recog-nized as commercially attainable for the thickness range citedin this specification.X1.3 ISO standards are listed
32、 for reference only. Use of anISO standard, in addition to, or instead of a preferred ASTMstandard may be negotiated between the purchaser and sup-plier.X1.4 This cobalt base alloy, UNS R30605, is knowngenerically as “L-605” and has been used extensively in theaerospace industry since the early 1980
33、s.

BIOCOMPATIBILITYX2.1 The material composition covered by this standardhas been employed successfully in human implant applicationsin contact with soft tissue and bone for over a decade. Due tothe well characterized level of local biological response estab-l
35、ished by this material, it has been used as a control material inPractice F 981.X2.2 No known surgical implant material has ever beenshown to be completely free of adverse reactions in the humanbody. However, long term clinical experience has shown anacceptable level of biological response can be ex
36、pected, if thematerial is used in appropriate applications.TABLE 3 Mechanical Requirements, Bar and WireAConditionUltimate Tensile Strength,min psi (MPa)Yield Strength (0.2 % Offset),min, psi (MPa)ElongationB,Cin 4D or 4W,min, %Annealed 125 000 (860) 45 000 (310) 30Cold-worked 180 000 (1250) 110 000
