Summary of Test Method4.1 Shear Method for Calcium Phosphate or Metallic Coat-ings:4.1.1 This test method consists of subjecting a specimenassembly composed of one coated and one uncoated compo-nent to a shear
7、 load. The components to be tested may bebonded together directly by thermomechanical means (forexample, sintering or diffusion bonding) or may be bondedtogether by use of a polymeric adhesive. The adhesive may bein film form or bulk form, but it must have a minimum bulkshear strength of 34.5 MPa (5
8、000 psi) or as great as theminimum required adhesion or cohesion strength of the coat-ing, whichever is greater.4.1.2 The shear load must be applied parallel to the plane ofthe coating utilizing a tensile machine, which is capable ofdetermining the maximum strength of the coating or coatingattachmen
9、t to the substrate interface.4.2 Shear Method for Metallic Coatings OnlyThe lapshear method consists of subjecting a porous coated area tosingle shear loading, generally utilizing suitable polymericadhesive or bone cement adhesive and test jig in a tensionmachine, and determining the maximum shear s
10、tress requiredto obtain separation (that is, the shear strength of the coating/substrate bond or shear strength of the coating).5. Significance and Use5.1 The shear test method is recommended for shear testingof calcium phosphate and metallic/substrate combinations andcan provide information on the
11、adhesive or cohesive strengthof coatings under a uniaxial shear stress.5.2 The test method may be useful for comparative evalu-ation of adhesive or cohesive strengths of a variety of types ofcoatings. Information developed using this test method may beuseful for certain quality control and design pu
12、rposes.5.3 The test method should not be considered to provide anintrinsic values for utilization directly in making calculationssuch as determining the ability of a coating to withstandspecified environmental stresses.5.4 Processing variables, such as substrate preparation priorto coating, surface
13、texture, coating technique variables orpost-coating heat treatment, or heat may introduce a significanteffect on the results of the shear test. The specimen beingevaluated must be representative of the actual end-use coating.6. Apparatus6.1 Testing MachinesMachines used for testing shallconform to t

17、ing Devices:6.2.1 GeneralVarious types of grips may be used totransmit the load applied to the specimens by the testingmachine. To ensure axial shear stress, it is important that thespecimen axis coincide with the centerline of the heads of thetesting machine and that the coating test plane be paral
18、lel to theaxial load. Any departure from this requirement (that is, anyeccentric loading) will introduce bending stresses that are notincluded in the usual stress calculation (force/cross-sectionalarea).6.2.2 Aligned Interface Method for Calcium Phosphate orMetallic Coatings:6.2.2.1 A drawing of a t

Test Specimen8.1 General:8.1.1 In order to ensure precision and accuracy in te
28、stresults, it is important that care be exercised in the preparationof specimens, both in machining and in the case of multi-partspecimens, in the assembly. Specimen components must beproperly aligned in order that generated stresses be purelyaxial, that is, parallel to the coated surface.8.1.2 Alig
29、ned Interface Method SpecimenThis shear testspecimen is illustrated in Fig. 6. A complete, assembled testassembly consists of two solid pieces; one with a coatedsurface and the other with an uncoated surface. The uncoatedsurface may be roughened to aid in the bonding of theadhesive.8.1.2.1 The cross
30、-sectional area of the substrate upon whichthe coating is applied shall be nominal 2.84 cm2(0.44 in.2).When specimens of another cross-sectional area are used, thedata must be demonstrated to be equivalent to 2.84 cm2standard cross-sectional area and the specimen size should bereported.8.1.3 Lap She
31、ar SpecimenLap shear specimens shallconsist of substrate plates of the type shown in Fig. 7 orequivalent. The dimensions of test specimens differing fromFig. 7 shall be included in the report.8.1.3.1 Test Specimen PositioningThe specimen shall bepositioned in the loading grips so as to cause the loa
32、d axis tobe coincident with the plane of the adhesive. This may beaccomplished by suitably shimming the specimen within thegrips.8.2 Specimen Coating Preparation:8.2.1 Coatings may be applied by any one of a number oftechniques. All test specimens for coating characterizationshall be prepared from i
33、ndicative coating lots, using productionFIG. 3 Drawing of the Recommended Shear Test SpecimenAssemblyFIG. 4 Lap Shear Bonding FixtureFIG. 5 Lap Shear Loading GripsFIG. 6 Aligned Interface SpecimenF1044053feedstock lots and be coated on the same equipment used foractual implants. The coating should c
34、onsist of a layer which ismechanically or chemically attached and covers the surface.8.2.2 All thermal treatments normally performed on thedevices should be performed on the test specimens.8.2.3 If employed, passivation and sterilization techniquesshould be consistent with those used for actual devi
35、ces.8.2.3.1 If the passivation and sterilization processes can beshown not to influence the shear strength, these steps may beeliminated.8.2.4 InspectionBefore testing, visual inspections shouldbe performed on 100 % of the test specimens. Lack of coatingin highly stressed regions, as well as nonunif
36、orm coatingappearance, shall be cause for specimen rejection.8.2.4.1 Coating Thickness MeasurementThe dimensionsof the coating planar surface shall be measured to the nearest0.80 mm (132 in.). For lap shear specimens, the thicknessshould be measured at the center and all four corners of thecoated ar
37、ea to 0.03 mm (0.001 in.). Coating thickness may notvary by more than 615 % of the thickness at the center.9. Procedure9.1 Prepare a minimum of five test specimens and apply thecoating of interest to the face of each in the same manner as foractual production devices.9.2 FM1000 Glue CuringThe test r
38、esults achieved aregreatly dependent upon the adhesive used and the way in whichit is cured. One suggested adhesive commonly used withcalcium phosphate coatings is FM 1000 having a thickness of0.25 mm (0.01 in.). This material has successfully been curedusing the following cycle:9.2.1 Align the adhe
39、sive with the surface of the coating,taking precautions to align the adhesive in the center of thecoating.9.2.2 Apply a constant force using a calibrated high tem-perature spring, resulting in a stress of 0.138 MPa (20 psi)between the coating and the opposing device that will test thecoating.9.2.2.1
40、 Maintain alignment of the coating and the matchingcounterface during the curing of the adhesive.9.2.3 Place the assembly in an oven and heat at 176C(350F) for 2 to 3 h.9.2.3.1 The exact amount of time necessary to cure theadhesive will need to be determined by each user, as oventemperature may vary
41、 with load size and oven type. It issuggested that initially the curing cycle be optimized withoutthe coating present.9.2.4 Remove the cured assembly from the oven and allowit to cool to room temperature.9.2.5 Remove all excess glue which has protruded from thecoated surface without compromising the
42、 integrity of thesample.9.3 3M Scotch - Weld 2214 - NMF Structural AdhesiveGluing Procedure:9.3.1 Ensure that surface to be bonded is clean, degreased,and free of any loose particles and beads.9.3.2 Apply a thin layer of the adhesive evenly to the coatedsurface of the test coupons. A spatula or tong
43、ue depressor maybe used as an application device.9.3.3 Squeeze excess adhesive out of the assembly usinghand pressure while coated faces of the test coupons are buttedtogether.9.3.4 Place the specimen thus prepared in the fixture shownin Fig. 5. During curing, ensure that the fixture maintains amild
44、 pressure at the joint, and force bonding faces to remainparallel and maintain the axial alignment.9.4 Direct Thermomechanical FabricationMetallic coat-ing specimens may be tested in either the aligned interface orsingle lap configuration. For sintered or diffusion bondedcoating systems, the test sp
45、ecimen configurations indicated inFigs. 4-7 may be constructed in a single process with thecoating application without the use of adhesive. The details ofthe specimen fabrication process will necessarily be unique toeach coating system. Perform appropriate inspections to ensurethat the microstructur
46、e and morphology of the coating in thetest specimen configuration are representative of finish produc-tion parts (see 8.2).9.5 Aligned Interface Test:9.5.1 Place the specimen assembly in the grips so that thelong axis of the specimen is perpendicular to the direction ofapplied shear load through the
47、 centerline of the grip assembly.9.5.2 Apply a shear load to each test specimen at a constantrate of cross-head speed of 0.25 cm/min (0.1 in./min). Continuethe test until complete separation of the components has beenachieved. Record the maximum load applied.9.6 Lap Shear Test:9.6.1 Following curing
48、, place the specimen in the testassembly shown in Fig. 6.9.6.2 Load the specimens at a constant rate of cross-headspeed of 0.25 cm/min (0.1 in./min). Continue the test untilcomplete separation of the components has been achieved.Record the maximum load applied.FIG. 7 Lap Shear Specimen (Metal Coatin
