Comparison of Various Properties between Titanium-Tantalum Alloy and Pure Titanium for Biomedical Applications
نویسندگان
چکیده
The mechanical properties, corrosion resistance and biocompatibility of the titanium-tantalum alloys together with pure titanium are comparatively studied for biomedical applications in this study. The experimental results confirm the previous theoretic investigation that tantalum has a potential to enhance the strength and reduce the elastic modulus of titanium alloys at the same time, and indicate that the titaniumtantalum alloys are more suitable than pure titanium for biomedical applications because of their lower elastic modulus, higher strength and enhanced corrosion resistance than pure titanium used as a standard metallic biomaterial, and the same excellent compatibility to pure titanium.

متن کاملTritium production resulting from deuteration of different metals and alloys
Previous experiments have shown that tritium is produced in deuterated titanium. To better define the phenomenon a series of tests have been performed using various metals and alloys and different deuterating conditions. Sheets and shavings of titanium, zirconium, hafnium, tantalum, Zircaloy 2 and Ti-Zr 50% alloy have been tested. A statistical analysis of the tritium production shows that sign...
