Jia, Jiangang and Siddiq, Abdur R. and Kennedy, Andrew R. (2015) Porous titanium manufactured by a novel powder tapping method using spherical salt bead space holders: characterisation and mechanical
Porous Ti with open porosity in the range of 70-80% has been made using Ti powder and a particulate leaching technique using porous, spherical, NaCl beads. By incorporating the Ti powder into a pre-existing network of salt beads, by tapping followed by compaction, salt dissolution and “sintering”, porous structures with uniform density, pore and strut sizes and a predictable level of connectivi...
متن کاملSiddiq, Abdur R. and Kennedy, Andrew R. (2015) Porous poly-ether ether ketone (PEEK) manufactured by a novel powder route using near-spherical salt bead porogens: characterisation and mechanical properties
Porous PEEK structures with approximately 85% open porosity have been made using PEEKOPTIMA® powder and a particulate leaching technique using porous, near-spherical, sodium chloride beads. A novel manufacturing approach is presented and compared with a traditional dry mixing method. Irrespective of the method used, the use of near-spherical beads with a fairly narrow size range results in unif...
متن کاملPorous Titanium by Electro-chemical Dissolution of Steel Space-holders
Among the various methods existing to fabricate porous titanium for structural or biomedical applications, the spaceholder approach is particularly useful as it allows a close control of pore size, shape and fraction. In this method, a blend of pure or alloyed titanium powders and space-holder materials are cold-pressed into a preform which is sintered in vacuum. During the early stage of sinte...
متن کاملStiffness variation of porous titanium developed using space holder method
The excellent properties of Ti have resulted in its generalised use for bone implants. However, Ti is very stiff in comparison with human cortical bone, and this creates problems of bone weakening and loosening of the implant. This article discusses the mechanical properties (flexural and compressive strength, and stiffness) of porous Ti–6Al–4V specimens developed using the space holder method....
متن کاملMicrostructure and Mechanical Behavior of Porous Ti–6Al–4V Processed by Spherical Powder Sintering
Reducing the stiffness of titanium is an important issue to improve the behavior of this material when working together with bone, which can be achieved by generating a porous structure. The aim of this research was to analyze the porosity and mechanical behavior of Ti-6Al-4V porous samples developed by spherical powder sintering. Four different microsphere sizes were sintered at temperatures r...
