This work is to reveal and present some contemporary surface treatment methods used in view of improving performance of parts of a variety of metals and alloys. Stainless steels and titanium alloys are with the group of particular focus, important for medical implants in chirurgy and instruments used in dentistry. Improved, anti-corrosion properties and mechanical strength of materials are the primary features for examination.

Skin Stapler is an alternative instrument, which makes surgy easily and quickly and owns fine-looking effect without scars after the wound healed, to traditional surgical suture for the wound skin sewing. Magnesium recently is considered to develop medical implants because of its beneficial biocompatibility and bioabsorability. Due its less mechanical strength than traditional 316L stainless steel used in common staple, this paper try to optimize the structure of pure magnesium skin staple by FEM models and simulation as so to assure its biomechanical safty. Using ADINA software, two staples with different pre-bended shoulders and the traditional staple without shoulder are modeling to analyze its stress and plastical strain during structural deformation under load. The results, not only of pure magnesium models but also of 316L stainless steel models, showed that the shoulders optimization on staple structure has important role in its mechanical performance. The research increases the possibility of bioabsorable magnesium material application on medical skin staple.

Abstract Magnesium alloys have very interesting physical properties which make them ‘materials of the future’ for tools and machine components in many industry areas. However, very low corrosion and tribological resistance of magnesium alloys hampers the implementation of this material in the industry. One of the methods to improve the properties of magnesium alloys is the application of the solutions of surface engineering like hybrid technologies. In this paper, the authors compare the tribological and corrosion properties of two types of “MgAlitermetalic / PVD coating” composite layers obtained by two different hybrid surface treatment technologies. In the first configuration, the “MgAlitermetalic / PVD coating” composite layer was obtained by multisource hybrid surface treatment technology combining magnetron sputtering (MS), arc evaporation (AE) and vacuum heating methods. The second type of a composite layer was prepared using a hybrid technology combined with a diffusion treatment process in Al-powder and the electron beam evaporation (EB) method. The authors conclude, that even though the application of „MgAlitermetalic / PVD coating” composite layers can be an effective solution to increase the abrasive wear resistance of magnesium alloys, it is not a good solution to increase its corrosion resistance.

First Choice

Due to their outstanding mechanical properties, excellent corrosion resistance and biocompatibility titanium and titanium alloys are the first choice for medical engineering products. Alloys currently used for implant applications are Ti-6Al-4V (ELI) and Ti-6Al-7Nb. Both alloys belong to the class of (α+β)-alloys and contain aluminium as an alloying element. Aluminium is cytotoxic and can cause breast cancer. In addition, the stiffness of (α+β)-alloys is relatively high which can lead to stress shielding, bone degradation and implant loss. For this reason, second-generation titanium alloys like Ti-15Mo (solute-lean metastable β-alloy) and Ti-13Nb-13Zr (β-rich (α+β)-alloy) have been developed. However, their application in medical implants is limited due to a relatively low strength. Therefore, in the present study, the mechanical properties of Ti-15Mo and Ti-13Nb-13Zr have been optimised by thermomechanical treatments to achieve high strengths combined with low stiffnesses. Different phase compositions have been used, namely, α-, β- and ω-phase in Ti-15Mo and α-, β- and αʺ-phase in Ti-13Nb-13Zr. For Ti-15Mo, the required mechanical properties’ combination could not be achieved whereas Ti-13Nb-13Zr showed high strength and a low Young’s modulus after a dedicated thermo-mechanical treatment. This makes the latter alloy a good option for replacing the (α+β)-alloys in implant applications in the future.
