Definitions

  • the present invention relates to titanium-based alloy foams, their preparation method and their use as a biomaterial in biomedical applications.
  • the aging of the population constitutes one of the most relevant social and demographic events in recent decades, characterized by the increase in people who are 60 years of age or older. Its relevance is due to the fact that this process has multiple impacts on society, not only in the fields of education and health, but also in the economy and in the composition of the workforce.
  • Biomaterials may be suitable to solve these problems (serve as implants), it is expected that these biomaterials exhibit appropriate properties such as: excellent resistance to corrosion in the body fluid medium, mechanical and fatigue resistance, low modulus of elasticity, low density and good wear resistance, and stay in service longer without failure.
  • Stainless steel, Co-based alloys, Co-Cr and Ti-6AI-4V alloys are used as implants under load conditions (Xiong, J., et al., “Mechanical properties and bioactive surface modification via alkali-heat treatment of a porous Ti-18Nb-4Sn alloy for biomedical applications. "Acta Biomater., 2008. 4 (6): p. 1963-1968; Aguilar, C., et al.,” Synthesis and characterization of Ti-Ta- Nb- Mn foams. Materials Science and Engineering ” ⁇ . C, 2016. 58: p. 420-431).
  • Ti and its alloys have interesting properties that include high mechanical strength, lightness, excellent resistance to oxidation, and high biocompatibility. Compared with stainless steel, alloys based on cobalt (Co-Cr), Ti and alloys based on Ti have better biocompatibility, corrosion resistance and a lower elastic modulus (Long M. and HJ Rack, “Titanium alloys in total joint replacement — a materials Science perspective. ”Biomaterials, 1998. 19 (18): p. 1621-1639), so its use as a biomaterial has increased.
  • Ti-6AI-4V was the first a + by microstructure alloy that is widely used today as a biomaterial.
  • V and Al ions can be released into the human body, increasing the likelihood of disease.
  • V ions are released into human tissues, the kinetics of enzyme activity associated with inflammatory response cells are altered, and Al ions increase the likelihood of developing Alzheimer's.
  • materials scientists are investigating the alloy of non-toxic elements to produce new Ti-based alloys that meet the properties required for biomaterials.
  • the alloying elements tested are: Nb, Ta, Mo, Ta, Mn.
  • the alloying elements that have a different biological impact, so the best candidates to be considered biocompatible are: Ta, Nb, Zr, Au, Sn, Ru and Mn.
  • the most promising alloying elements for synthesizing Ti-based alloys are the 3d, 4d and 5d transition metals.
  • Ti-based alloys with a + b microstructure have been obtained using alloying elements such as Nb and Fe, but the elastic modulus values are higher (more than 100 GPa) compared to the elastic modulus of human bones, between 4 and 30 GPa for cortical bones and between 0.01 and 2 GPa for human cancellous bone. If the orthopedic implant has a higher elastic modulus value than human bone, the phenomenon called stress shielding occurs, which causes a high resorption rate.
  • metallic foams are defined as a mixture of metallic structure with embedded pores (open and / or closed), and present mixed properties between metals and foams.
  • Metallic foams possess a unique combination of properties, such as their low density, permeability to air and water, ability to absorb impact energy, low thermal conductivity, and good electrical insulation.
  • the main disadvantage of foams is that their elastic limit decreases as porosity increases.
  • biomaterial that shows properties such as high biocompatibility, low density, high mechanical strength and fatigue resistance, low elastic modulus and good wear resistance. More particularly, it is desirable that the biomaterial has a Young's modulus that matches the surrounding bone, and that in turn is strong and durable enough to withstand the physiological loads that have been applied to it over the years. Therefore, it is required to find a material that presents a suitable balance between strength and stiffness to better match the behavior of the bone.

  • cellular metals and "metallic foams” are used to refer to metals and alloys whose structure is porous.
  • cellular metals is used when the metal exhibits porous foams and the term metallic foams is used when a synthesis process is applied to obtain foams.
  • Metal foams with open pores can be obtained through solid, liquid or gaseous phases and the selection of the method depends on the type, distribution and size of the pores.
  • a simple solid state process to obtain foams with a distribution of pores and type of porosity (open and closed pores) is the "spacers" method. This method allows to control the shape, size and distribution of porosity through sintering temperature, time and dissolution temperature (if the spacer is salt). Spacers commonly used to synthesize Ti foams are: carbamide, ammonium hydrogen carbonate (NFI4FICO3), tapioca starch, salt (NaCl), magnesium, ACRAWAX® (AW), PMMA, sucrose and urea.
  • spacers commonly used to synthesize Ti foams are: carbamide, ammonium hydrogen carbonate (NFI4FICO3), tapioca starch, salt (NaCl), magnesium, ACRAWAX® (AW), PMMA, sucrose and urea.
  • the spacer should be selected based on the following criteria: i) size and shape, ii) cost, iii) reactivity of the Ti with the support, iv) presence of left residues, v) easy processability and vi) non-toxic element.
  • the residues In the case of biomedical foams, the residues must be bio-inert or biocompatible, that is, in the case of ammonium hydrogen carbonate, urea and tapioca starch, the human body can absorb residues that could cause some problems.
  • the NaCI particles have the advantage that their residues do not cause problems to the human body (they are not toxic) and they are easily removable by the process of dissolution in water.
  • ammonium bicarbonate as a spacer material has the advantages of not reacting with titanium during the process and is eliminated by the contribution of heat during sintering, due to its decomposition when subjected to a temperature above 35oC, producing ammonia vapors according to the reaction:
  • the porosity resulting from the preparation method and the mechanical properties obtained for the foams are highly dependent on the particle mixture of the support of the metal powder space.
  • Powder metallurgy or powder metallurgy is a manufacturing process that takes metallic powders with certain characteristics such as size, shape and packaging to create a figure of high hardness and precision.
  • One of the advantages of Powder Metallurgy is the ability to manufacture parts with complex shapes and dimensions close to those of the final product, with excellent tolerances, high quality and at a relatively low cost, that is, parts are obtained with greater homogeneity and control of the size of the grains, achieving the formation of strong bonds between the particles and, therefore, increases in the hardness and toughness of the materials.
  • This process is suitable for the manufacture of large series of small parts with great precision, for pure materials or unusual mixtures and to control the degree of porosity or permeability, in addition there is a reduction in costs due to the possibility of eliminating the processes of finishing, compared to other manufacturing methods such as forging or casting.
  • Figure 1 shows a general diagram of the stages of the basic powder metallurgy process.
  • the manufacture of PM components begins with the mixing of powders, additives and lubricants. This mixture is compacted as a piece inside a mold that has the desired shape, by applying pressure. After compaction, the mixture takes on the properties of a solid, whose state is called "green". Subsequently, the compact is sintered to temperatures below the melting point, under a controlled atmosphere, achieving a metallurgical bond between the particles.
  • the basic operations of compacting and heating can be combined in various ways in processes for the manufacture of metal powders.
  • alloying elements to pure titanium produce a range of possible microstructures in titanium alloys. That is, the addition of other elements to titanium can be obtained: Alpha alloys (a), Alpha-beta alloys (a-b) and beta alloys (b). These alloys are characterized by the phases (crystalline structures) that exist in the alloy when they are close to room temperature and possess different properties as shown in Figure 2. The temperatures at which the alpha and beta phases can exist are they alter as alloying elements are added to the titanium. Depending on their influence on the proportions of the alpha and beta phases below the beta trans, the alloying elements are divided into three groups:
  • Beta stabilizers stabilizes the beta phase at lower temperatures
  • Alpha (a) Alloys are characterized by their strength, toughness, yield stress and weldability.
  • Alpha stabilizing solutes are those that, as a function of concentration, raise the temperature of the (a + b) / a transus.
  • Such solutes are generally not transition metals (ie "simple metals", SM).
  • Beta alloys In the case of Beta Alloys (b), the transition solutes (metal) are stabilizers of the bcc phase. Therefore, all b-alloys generally contain large amounts of one or more of the so-called “b-isomorphs” forming additions: vanadium, niobium, tantalum (group V transition metals) and molybdenum (group VI transition metals). Beta alloys are metastable; that is, they tend to transform into a balance or balance of structures. The Beta alloys generate strength from the intrinsic strength of the beta structure and the precipitation of the alpha and other phases of the alloy through heat treatment after processing.
  • beta structure The most significant benefit provided by a beta structure is the increased formability of such alloys relative to the hexagonal crystal structure types (alpha and alpha-beta).
  • Formability can be defined as a measure of the amount of deformation that a material can undergo in a forming process without failure, such as localized thinning or fracture.
  • Other characteristics of beta alloy are: being heat treatable at high strength levels, excellent tensile strength up to 370 ° C, low creep resistance above 370 ° C, good solderability as solution treated, good toughness, slow rate fatigue crack growth and contains sufficient beta stabilizer to retain a fully beta structure at room temperature, which increases ductility.
  • the alloys a + b are such that, in equilibrium, generally at room temperature, they admit a mixture of phases a and b. Although many stabilized binary alloys b in thermodynamic equilibrium are two-phase, in practice alloys a + b generally contain mixtures of stabilizers a and b. A + b alloys generally exhibit good workability, as well as high room temperature strength and moderate elevated temperature strength. They can contain between 10 and 50% phase b at room temperature; if they contain more than 20%, they are not weldable. The properties of alloys a + b can be controlled by heat treatment, which is used to adjust the microstructural states and precipitation of component b. The alloys are formulated so that both the alpha phase (hcp) and the beta phase (bcc) exist at room temperature. These alloys, to some extent, compromise some of the characteristics of alpha and beta alloys.
