    The Co-20Cr-15W-10Ni (CCWN, mass%) alloy, registered as American society of testing and materials (ASTM) F90, has been widely used as a balloon-expandable stent because of its excellent balance between its mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. To realize a less invasive stent placement, the stent diameter must be reduced, which implies that the stent strut thickness must be reduced. As such, the CCWN alloy must be high in strength and ductility while maintaining a low yield stress to facilitate the expansion and suppression of stent recoil. In this study, we focus on the effects of the adding Mn/Fe on the microstructure, mechanical properties, and corrosive properties of CCWN alloys. A 6 mass% Mn-added CCWN alloy with a grain size of approximately 20 μm prepared in this study exhibits excellent balance between tensile strength and ductility. In addition, it exhibits a lower yield stress while maintaining a high tensile strength compared with the ASTM F90 alloy. Meanwhile, a 6 mass% Fe-added CCWN alloy exhibits a higher ductility compared with the ASTM F90 alloy. The addition of Mn or Fe to the CCWN alloy increases the stacking fault energy of the alloy and suppresses strain-induced martensitic transformation during plastic deformation, thus improving the ductility of the alloy. Results of polarization tests show that the 6 mass% Mn-or Fe-added CCWN alloys exhibit the same corrosion current density as the ASTM F90 alloy. Mn-added Co-Cr-W-Ni alloys are suitable for use in balloon-expandable stents.

    The demand for biomaterials has been increasing along with the increase in the population of elderly people worldwide. The mechanical properties and high wear resistance of metallic biomaterials make them well-suited for use as substitutes or as support for damaged hard tissues. However, unless these biomaterials also have a low Young's modulus similar to that of human bones, bone atrophy inevitably occurs. Because a low Young's modulus is typically associated with poor wear resistance, it is difficult to realize a low Young's modulus and high wear resistance simultaneously. Also, the superelastic property of shape-memory alloys makes them suitable for biomedical applications, like vascular stents and guide wires. However, due to the low recoverable strain of conventional biocompatible shape-memory alloys, the demand for a new alloy system is high. The novel body-centered-cubic cobalt-chromium-based alloys in this work provide a solution to both of these problems. The Young's modulus of <001>-oriented single-crystal cobalt-chromium-based alloys is 10-30 GPa, which is similar to that of human bone, and they also demonstrate high wear and corrosion resistance. They also exhibit superelasticity with a huge recoverable strain up to 17.0%. For these reasons, the novel cobalt-chromium-based alloys can be promising candidates for biomedical applications.

    AbstractThis is the first report presenting the development of a Co–Cr–W–Ni–Mn alloy by adding 6 mass pct Mn to ASTM F90 Co–20Cr–15W–10Ni (CCWN, mass pct) alloy for use as balloon-expandable stents with an excellent balance of mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. The effects of Mn addition on the microstructures as well as the mechanical and corrosion properties were investigated after hot forging, solution treatment, swaging, and static recrystallization. The Mn-added alloy with a grain size of ~ 20 µm (recrystallization condition: 1523 K, 150 seconds) exhibited an ultimate tensile strength of 1131 MPa, 0.2 pct proof stress of 535 MPa, and plastic elongation of 66 pct. Additionally, it exhibited higher ductility and lower yield stress while maintaining high strength compared to the ASTM F90 CCWN alloy. The formation of intersecting stacking faults was suppressed by increasing the stacking fault energy (SFE) with Mn addition, resulting in a lower yield stress. The low-yield stress is effective in suppressing stent recoil. In addition, strain-induced martensitic transformation during plastic deformation was suppressed by increasing the SFE, thereby improving the ductility. The Mn-added alloys also exhibited good corrosion resistance, similar to the ASTM F90 CCWN alloy. Mn-added Co–Cr–W–Ni alloys are suitable for use as balloon-expandable stents.

    We investigated changes in the microstructure and mechanical properties of biomedical Co20Cr15W10Ni alloys (mass%) containing 8 mass% Mn and 03 mass% Si due to hot forging, solution treatment, cold swaging, and static recrystallization. The ©-phase (M XM X type cubic structure, M: metallic elements, X: C and/or N, space group: Fd-3m (227)) and CoWSi type Laves phase (C14 MgZn2 type hexagonal structure, space group: P63/mmc (194)) were confirmed as precipitates in the as-cast and as-forged alloys. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report that reveals the formation of CoWSi type Laves phase precipitates in CoCrWNi-based alloys. The addition of Si promoted the formation of precipitates of both ©-phase and CoWSi type Laves phase. The solution-treated 8Mn+(0, 1)Si-added alloys exhibited TWIP-like plastic deformation behavior with an increasing work-hardening rate during the early to middle stages of plastic deformation. This plastic deformation behavior is effective in achieving both the low yield stress and high strength required to develop a high-performance balloon-expandable stent. The 8Mn+2Si-added alloy retained the CoWSi type Laves phase even after solution treatment, such that the ductility decreased but the strength improved. Additions of Mn and Si are effective in improving the ductility and strength of the CoCrWNi alloy, respectively. 6 12

    The Co-20Cr-15W-10Ni (CCWN, mass%) alloy has excellent corrosion resistance and strength-ductility balance and is applied in almost all balloon-expandable stent platforms. To further reduce the invasiveness of stent placement, it is necessary to reduce the diameter of the stent. That is, both high strength and high ductility should be achieved while maintaining a low yield stress. In our previous studies, it was discovered that low-temperature heat-treatment (LTHT) at 873 K improves the elongation of the CCWN alloy. In this study, we focused on the grain refinement by swaging and static recrystallization to improve the strength of the alloy. The as-swaged alloy was recrystallized at 1373–1473 K for 100–300 s, followed by LTHT. A fine grain structure with an average grain size of 3–17 μm was obtained by static recrystallization. The η-phase (M12X-M6X type precipitates, M: metallic elements, X: C and/or N) formed during the recrystallization at 1373–1448 K. The alloys recrystallized at 1448 and 1473 K had a homogeneous structure with a small variation in the grain size. On the other hand, the alloys recrystallized at 1373 and 1423 K had an inhomogeneous structure in which fine and coarse grains were mixed. Both the strength and ductility of the CCWN alloy were improved by combining high-temperature short-time recrystallization and LTHT.

    © 2020 by the authors. Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland. We studied the precipitates that were induced during γ-ε phase transformation in biomedical Co-28Cr-6Mo (mass%) alloys that were fabricated by electron beam melting with carbon contents of 0.184 and 0.018 mass%. In the high-C as-built alloy, M23X6-type, π-phase (M3T2X-type), and η-phase (M6X-M12X-type) precipitates were observed (M and T: metallic elements, X: C and/or N). σ-phase (Co(Cr,Mo)), π-phase, and Co3Mo2Si-type precipitates were observed in the low-C as-built alloy. This is the first report that shows the presence and chemical composition of this precipitate, as the Co3Mo2Si-type precipitate has not been detected in biomedical Co-Cr-Mo alloys before. After aging in the ε-phase stability region, the high-C and low-C alloys both contained a single ε-phase matrix, and the amount of π-phase precipitates increased. Conversely, the amount of π-phase precipitates in both alloys decreased when a reverse transformation treatment was applied in the γ-phase stability region after aging. In the low-C alloy, the amount of Co3Mo2Si-type precipitates increased after reverse transformation treatment. These results indicate that the dissolution of π-phase precipitates and the formation of Co3Mo2Si-type precipitates during reverse transformation promote the formation of fine γ-phase grains at the precipitate/ε-phase matrix interface, because the formation and dissolution of these precipitates affect the γ-phase stability of the matrix.

    © 2019 The Authors A process combining swaging, static recrystallization, and heat treatment at 873 K (low-temperature heat-treatment, LTHT) was developed for achieving both high ultimate strength and high ductility in Co-20Cr-15W-10Ni (mass%, CCWN) alloy for stent application. The alloys swaged to a sectional area reduction rate of 58.3% were annealed at 1373–1473 K for 30–300 s. Under annealing at 1373 K for 300 s, a fine grain structure with an average grain size of ~6 μm formed, while under annealing at 1473 K, a structure with an average grain size of 12 μm formed after 120 s. In the alloys annealed at 1373–1448 K, the formation of η-phase precipitates (M6X-M12X type, M: metallic elements, X: C and/or N) was observed, while no precipitates were observed in the alloys annealed at 1473 K. The improvement in ultimate strength by grain refinement was confirmed. Alloys annealed at 1473 K showed higher ductility compared to those annealed at 1373–1448 K even if the grain size was similar. It is considered that the η-phase precipitates deteriorated the ductility of the annealed alloys. LTHT suppressed the strain-induced martensitic γ-to-ε transformation to improve the ductility of the fine-grained as well as coarse-grained alloys. Thus, regardless of the grain size, it is newly evidenced that LTHT effectively improves ductility in CCWN alloy. By combining high-temperature short-time annealing and LTHT, both the ultimate strength and ductility of Co-20Cr-15W-10Ni (mass%) alloy improved, and it was possible to provide properties suitable for next-generation balloon-expandable stents with Co-20Cr-15W-10Ni (mass%) alloy.

    The microstructure and tensile properties of Co-27Cr-6Mo (mass%) alloys heat-treated at 673-1373 K were studied. Lower elongation was observed after heat treatment at 1073 K due to formation of carbonitride precipitates. In contrast, when low-temperature heat treatment (LTHT) was applied at 673-873 K, both the ultimate tensile strength and elongation synchronously improved compared with the solution-treated alloy. Electron backscatter diffraction analysis for plastic-strained alloys and in situ X-ray diffraction analysis under stress induced conditions revealed that the strain-induced martensitic transformation (SIMT) of the gamma(fcc)-phase to epsilon(hcp)-phase during plastic deformation was suppressed by the LTHT. Stacking faults (thin epsilon-phase) were observed to collide in the LTHT alloys. The following mechanisms for the synchronous improvement in the tensile strength and elongation after LHTH are proposed. First, stacking faults with multiple variants were formed during LTHT. Then, the epsilon-phase of a single variant formed by SIMT during plastic deformation collides with preexisting multi-variant stacking faults formed during LTHT, increasing the tensile strength. In addition, the SIMT during plastic deformation is suppressed in the high-plastic-strain region by the collision. This decreases the total amount of epsilon-phase formed during plastic deformation, which improves the ductility. We demonstrated that LTHT of Co-Cr-Mo alloys effectively improves the performance and mechanical safety of spinal fixation implants, which often fracture because of fatigue cracking.

    © 2018 We have investigated the spatial distribution of microstructures of a Co-Cr-Mo alloy rod fabricated by Electron Beam Melting (EBM) method along built height. The topside of the rod is rich in γ-fcc phase and consists of fine grains with high local distortion density. The bottom part has an ε-hcp single phase and consists of relatively coarser grains with low local distortion density. The middle part of the rod consisted of the mixture of both phases. The mean grain size increases from 56 μm (at the top of the rod) to 159 μm (at the bottom), and is accompanied by a decrease in the γ-fcc phase fraction. On the other hand, a large number of precipitates including the main M 23 X 6 phase and minor phases (η-phase and π-phase) were observed. The area fraction of the precipitates increases gradually from 5.26% (at the top) to 8.73% (at the bottom), and the relative proportion of each phase fluctuates at different positions. The hardness of the top side is lower than that of the bottom side. As a result, the hardness of the samples, as well as the area fraction of precipitates formed in the samples, increases gradually from top to bottom of the rod, while corrosion resistance is uniformly high throughout the rod almost independently of the location. The mechanism behind the formation of phase distribution is discussed in terms of thermodynamic phase stability and kinetics of phase transformation accompanying the thermal history during the post-solidification process.

    Microstructural changes were observed during the plastic deformation of ASTM F90 Co-20Cr-15W-10Ni (mass pct) alloy heat-treated at 873 K (600 °C) for 14.4 ks, and analyzed by electron backscatter diffraction and in situ X-ray diffraction techniques. The obtained results revealed that the area fraction of the ε-phase (fε) in the as-received alloy was higher than that in the heat-treated alloy in the low-to-middle strain region (≤ 50 pct), whereas the fε of the heat-treated alloy was higher than that of the as-received alloy at the fracture point. During plastic deformation, the ε-phase was preferentially formed at the twin boundaries of the heat-treated alloy rather than at the grain boundaries. According to the transmission electron microscopy observations, the thin ε-phase layer formed due to the alloy heat treatment acted as the origin of deformation twinning, which decreased the stress concentration at the grain boundaries. The results of anodic polarization testing showed that neither the heat treatment at 873 K (600 °C) nor plastic deformation affected the alloy corrosion properties. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study proving that the formation of a thin ε-phase layer during the low-temperature heat treatment of the studied alloy represents an effective method for the enhancement of the alloy ductility without sacrificing its strength and corrosion properties.

    The microstructure and mechanical properties of a heat-treated biomedical ASTM F90 Co-20Cr-15W-10Ni (mass pct) alloy were investigated. The alloy was heat-treated at temperatures of 673 K to 1623 K (400 A degrees C to 1450 A degrees C) for holding times of 0.6 to 259.2 ks. The formation of M23X6-type (M: metallic element and X: C and N) and eta-phase (M6X-M12X type) precipitates was detected in the heat-treated alloys using a combination of electrolytic extraction and X-ray diffraction. The formation of precipitates deteriorated the ductility of the heat-treated alloys. On the other hand, both the tensile strength and elongation were improved by heat treatment at low temperatures of 673 K to 873 K (400 A degrees C to 600 A degrees C). In this heat-treated alloy, the density of stacking faults was higher than that of the as-received alloy, and the formation of the epsilon-phase was detected.

    Changes in the microstructure and hardness of biomedical Co-Cr-Mo forged alloys (Co-27Cr-6Mo-0.77Si-0.64Mn-0.17N-0.06C (mass%)) during aging were investigated with a focus on precipitation. After solution treatment at 1523 K for 1.8 ks, the alloys were subjected to aging at temperatures between 973 and 1373 K for up to 86.4 ks. eta-phase (M6X-M12X type), M23X6-type and pi-phase (A(2)T(3)X type) precipitates were detected after aging. The formation of pi-phase precipitates was detected in alloys aged between 1023 and 1123 K for holding times >= 21.6 ks, with a nose temperature between 1073 and 1123 K. The presence of Tr-phase precipitates in the aged Co-Cr-Mo alloy is reported for the first time; N contained within the alloy is believed to contribute to formation of the yr-phase. The formation of a hexagonal-close-packed Co-based metallic phase (epsilon-phase) was observed between 1023 and 1123 K. The Vickers hardness increased in alloys aged at 1023 and 1073 K. This increase in hardness is attributed to the presence Of pi-phase and epsilon-phase and their wide-area precipitation.

    Pin-on-disk wear tests using Co-Cr-Mo (CCM) alloy pins and disks were conducted in 0.14 NI NaCl solutions with and without albumin. To clarify the effect of precipitates in the CCM alloys on the alloy wear behavior, as-received (having precipitates) and solution-treated (having no precipitates) CCM alloys were used as specimens. Friction coefficients during wear testing were measured. After the wear testing, the mass loss of pins and disks, wear tracks on the disks, and the wear debris were examined using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and laser microscopy (LM). The concentration of metallic ions in solution was analyzed by inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectroscopy (ICPAES). In the solution without albumin, the friction coefficient increased with increasing sliding time and discontinuous wear grooves with attached and detached sections were observed, indicating that adhesive wear was dominant. On the other hand, in the solution with albumin, the friction coefficient was constant independent of the sliding distance and continuous wear grooves were observed, indicating that abrasive wear was dominant. High amounts of mass loss were detected from the as-received alloys in the albumin solution, and it is theorized that the wear debris (including precipitates) enhanced the third-body wear. The concentration of Cr ions in solution was lower than the expected values based on the alloy composition. In the solution with albumin, it was thought that the Cr ions bonded with the albumin, increasing the amount of available Cr ions in solution.

    The precipitation behavior during heat treatment and resulting mechanical properties of ASTM F 90 Co-20Cr-15W-10Ni (mass%) alloys were investigated with regards to their biomedical applications. Heat treatment was conducted at temperatures of 873 to 1623 K, for a holding time of 259.2 ks. The precipitates produced were then electrolytically extracted from the alloys and analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD). This revealed that the precipitates formed were an M23X6 type and/or eta-phase (i.e., an M6X-M12X type). The M23X6-type precipitate was detected across the entire heat-treatment temperature range; however, the.-phase precipitate was only detected at 1073 to 1473 K, becoming dominant at 1173 to 1373 K. The formation of M23X6 type precipitates at 873 K is shown to improve the mechanical properties of this alloy, whereas the domination by the eta-phase precipitate at higher temperatures causes deterioration in the ductility.

    メカニカルアロイングおよび放電プラズマ焼結によってFe-Mn-Mg合金の創製に成功した。作製したFe-Mn-Mg合金に対し、微細組織分析、硬さ試験、圧縮試験、浸漬試験、電気化学試験を行うことで、Fe, Mn, Mgの合金化プロセス、相変態挙動、Mg添加量が機械的特性および腐食特性に与える影響を明らかにした。Mg添加量の増加に伴い、合金化に必要なメカニカルアロイングの実施時間が増加することが明らかとなった。放電プラズマ焼結時にはbcc相からfcc相+hcp相への母相の相変態が発生した。Mg添加量のみならず、焼結体の緻密性も機械的特性および腐食特性に大きな影響を及ぼすことが明らかとなった。 これらの研究成果は、2021年9月14日に日本金属学会2021年秋期(第169回)講演大会にて「メカニカルアロイングと放電プラズマ焼結による生体用Fe-Mn-Mg合金の開発」という題目にてポスター発表を、2022年3月17日に日本金属学会2022年春期(第170回)講演大会にて「メカニカルアロイングおよび放電プラズマ焼結によって作製したFe-Mn-Mg合金の相変態挙動と機械的および腐食特性」という題目にて口頭発表を行った。さらに、現在投稿論文を執筆中であり、2022年5月頃に投稿予定である。また、2022年8月に開催される国際会議「Biomaterials International 2022]にて「EFFECT OF Mg ADDITON ON MECHANICAL AND CORROSIVE PROPERTIES OF BIODEGRADABLE Fe-Mn ALLOY FABRICATED BY MECHANICAL ALLOYING AND SPARK PLASMA SINTERING」という題目にて発表予定である。

    骨固定用金属製インプラントの剛性は、骨修復中とその後とで適正値が異なり、骨修復中は高剛性、骨修復完了後は低剛性のほうが適切であることが実験的に示唆されている。さらに、この骨修復状況に依存した金属製インプラントの剛性の適正値の変化は力学的負荷方向に依存し、骨修復中は骨のねじり方向、骨修復後は軸方向の剛性が重要であると考えられる。そこで、本研究では、骨のねじり方向に高剛性であり、軸方向に低剛性となるように、意図的に大きな剛性異方性を付与した金属製インプラントの作製を試みる。この実現のため、材質と形状とを同時に制御することが可能な金属積層造形技術を用いる。昨年度、市販の316Lステンレス鋼を供試材として用い、横方向には高ヤング率となり、縦方向には低ヤング率となるように、面内の直交する二方向の結晶方位を制御し、プレートのヤング率を縦方向よりも横方向に高くすることに成功した。今年度は、結晶構造が体心立方格子(BCC)からなる、市販されていないチタン合金製粉末をガスアトマイズ法およびプラズマ回転電極法を用いて試作し、粒度分布や流動性を評価するとともに、粉末内部のミクロ組織を観察・分析した。その結果、粉末製造法に依存して、各粉末のサテライトの付着状況や真球度が異なっていたが、いずれも金属積層造形に用いることが可能であることを確認した。さらに、粉末内部の気孔の存在割合やデンドライト組織形態が粉末製造法に依存して異なることを明らかにした。ただし、元素分布自体は、いずれの粉末内部においても、BCC安定化元素の濃化部とそれ以外の元素の濃化部とに分かれ、濃化の程度は粉末製造法にあまり依存しないことが明らかとなった。

    1. 前年度までのASTM F90 Co-20Cr-15W-10Ni(mass%)合金における加工熱処理による結晶粒微細化と低温熱処理による機械的特性の向上に関する研究を発展させ、塑性変形挙動の結晶粒径依存性を調査した。粗大結晶粒組織の場合には、塑性変形中に加工硬化率が上昇する優れた加工硬化特性を示し、低温熱処理を施すことでその傾向が促進された。一方で、微細結晶粒組織の場合には、塑性変形初期では高い加工硬化率を示すものの、歪みの増加とともに加工硬化率が減少する傾向を示した。結晶粒微細化によって歪み誘起マルテンサイト変態(SIMT)の発生が促進されていることが明らかとなった。これは、結晶粒微細化に伴い、SIMTの発生サイトになりやすい結晶粒界および双晶界面が増加したためであると考えられる。さらに、結晶粒径にかかわらず、低温熱処理によりSIMTの発生が抑制された。これらの結果から、結晶粒微細化と低温熱処理を組み合わせることで高強度、高延性、低降伏応力というバルーン拡張型ステントに適した特性を付与することが可能であることが明らかとなった。 2. ASTM F90 Co-20Cr-15W-10Ni(mass%)合金をベースとして、低降伏応力を維持したままでのさらなる高強度化、高延性化を目的として、Si, Mnを添加した新合金を作製した。Siは、固溶強化による強度向上を、Mnは延性の向上および析出物形成の抑制を目的として添加した。Si添加により(Co, Ni)WSi laves相が形成し、強度が向上したものの、延性の著しい低下が確認された。一方で、Mn添加により延性が向上し、塑性変形中に加工硬化率が上昇する優れた加工硬化特性を示した。この結果から、Mn添加は、高強度、高延性、低降伏応力を共立する合金開発において一つの有効な方法であることが示唆された。
