ASTM F67 Pure Titanium Sheets: Material Specification for Medical Implants

With the development of human medical technology, the medical profession researches most medical fields of material selection has also changed, from the original steel material to the current titanium medical ASTM F67 and ASTM F136 material, titanium alloy is also continuously getting recognition in the medical profession and widely used in a variety of medical devices and implants:

1. In artificial joints, the medical profession began to give priority to the use of titanium alloy medical plates are widely used in the manufacture of artificial joints, such as artificial hip joints, artificial knee joints, and so on. Because in the actual application of clinical experiments found that the titanium knee plate is much lighter than the stainless steel knee plate, and the good biocompatibility of the titanium knee plate, so that it and the human body around the tissues well combined, corrosion problems have been well improved, so that the patient can be well restored to health.

2. In the treatment of bone trauma, in the clinical fracture treatment, the doctor to the patient will choose titanium alloy medical material to make the human fracture with the fixation device for fixing the fracture end, because it can quickly promote fracture healing. This is also based on the good biocompatibility of titanium alloy medical materials.

3. In the spinal orthopedic internal fixation, the medical use of titanium alloy medical material will also be widely used in the production of vertebral screws, pedicle screws, and other implants, it is not only light, comfortable, and good, the key can be very good compatibility with the human body, will not occur allergic reactions, and even less with the human body tissue resistance. On the contrary, it can be dissolved in the body faster, so that the patient will recover quickly.

4. Surgical instruments material production selection, titanium alloy medical materials manufactured by a variety of surgical instruments, such as surgical blades, hemostatic forceps, scissors, forceps, clamps, electric bone drills, etc. to make the medical community the first choice for clinical applications. Because titanium alloy made out of surgical instruments has good corrosion resistance, they are repeatedly cleaned and disinfected after the surface is still bright, medical operation is more convenient, reduces unnecessary fatigue operation of its high strength and corrosion resistance makes these instruments in the surgical process to maintain stability and reliability.

Titanium alloy medical materials, including medical titanium plates, rods, wires, tubes, etc., their advantages have been widely recognized by the medical community. Patient acceptance and positive feedback have grown along the way. Titanium alloy materials will become an important friend in the future life life.
