Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of medical implant materials, and particularly relates to a bio-medical antibacterial TiZrHfNbCu high-entropy alloy and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Bio-medical metallic materials are metals or alloys used as bio-medical materials, which have strong mechanical strength and fatigue resistance and are widely used as load-bearing implant materials. The three most commonly used clinically at present are mainly divided into the following three types: titanium and titanium alloys, cobalt alloys, and stainless steels. However, they all face the following problems in clinical applications: First, the elastic modulus is quite different from that of human bones, which is likely to cause the "stress shielding effect" and induce the weakening of normal tissues around the implant; second, all three alloys contain elements with cytotoxicity or harmfulness, and are likely to release toxic metal ions in tissue fluid, which is harmful to human tissues.
[0003] High-entropy alloys are alloys with excellent properties. High-entropy alloys have four typical effects: high-entropy effect, sluggish diffusion effect, cocktail effect, and lattice distortion effect. Among them, the cocktail effect enables high-entropy alloys to have controllable properties, and the desired properties can be obtained by changing the types or contents of components in the high-entropy alloy. In the field of biomedicine, high-entropy alloys have low Young's modulus, hardness similar to that of bones, high specific strength, etc., making them have good application potential in the field of medical health.
[0004] Medical high-entropy alloys are often composed of non-cytotoxic elements such as Ti, Zr, Nb, Ta, etc. as the main components, and can obtain lower Young's modulus and better biocompatibility. However, the currently common medical high-entropy alloys all lack necessary antibacterial properties and are prone to bacterial infection after being implanted into the human body. And how to use each element in combination to obtain a medical high-entropy alloy with good cytocompatibility, low Young's modulus, and good antibacterial properties is one of the problems that people need to solve. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In view of the problems of high Young's modulus and poor cytotoxic elements existing in the existing bio-medical metallic materials, the present invention provides a bio-medical high-entropy alloy with both low Young's modulus, biocompatibility, and excellent antibacterial properties and a preparation method thereof by doping with Cu element. The method of the present invention also solves the problem of uneven melting due to the large difference in melting points between Cu and other elements.
[0006] The purpose of the present invention is achieved through the following technical solutions:
[0007] A bio-medical high-entropy alloy is composed of five elements, namely Ti, Zr, Hf, Nb, and Cu, and its composition is TiZrHfNbCu x, where 0 < x ≤ 1.2, and the molar ratio of Ti, Zr, Hf, Nb, and Cu is 1:1:1:1:x, and x is preferably 0.7 - 1.2.
[0008] The preparation method of the biomedical antibacterial high-entropy alloy TiZrHfNbCu includes the following steps: Ti, Zr, Hf, Nb, and Cu are subjected to vacuum argon arc melting to obtain the antibacterial high-entropy alloy.
[0009] Specifically, the preparation method is to mix Ti, Zr, and Cu and conduct vacuum argon arc melting to obtain a Ti-Zr-Cu intermediate alloy; mix Hf and Nb and conduct vacuum argon arc melting to obtain an Hf-Nb intermediate alloy; mix the Ti-Zr-Cu intermediate alloy and the Hf-Nb intermediate alloy, and conduct vacuum argon arc melting to obtain the antibacterial high-entropy alloy.
[0010] During the vacuum argon arc melting process, the vacuum in the cavity is pumped to 4.5×10 -3 Pa, and then argon is filled to 0.02 Pa, which can avoid oxidation during the alloy melting process.
[0011] The melting conditions of the Ti-Zr-Cu intermediate alloy: the arc current is 180 - 200 A, the melting time per time is 180 s; the number of flipping melting times is 5 - 6 times.
[0012] The melting conditions of the Hf-Nb intermediate alloy: the arc current is 200 - 250 A, the melting time per time is 180 s, and the number of flipping melting times is 5 - 6 times.
[0013] When the Ti-Zr-Cu intermediate alloy and the Hf-Nb intermediate alloy are mixed and subjected to vacuum argon arc melting, the conditions are:
[0014] The arc current is 200 - 250 A, the melting time per time is 180 s; the number of melting times is 8 - 10 times.
[0015] The content of each of the five raw material particles of Ti, Zr, Hf, Nb, and Cu is 99.9%.
[0016] After the melting of the Ti-Zr-Cu intermediate alloy and the Hf-Nb intermediate alloy is completed, cooling is carried out.
[0017] The cooling method is water cooling for 10 - 20 min
[0018] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:
[0019] 1. The medical antibacterial high-entropy alloy of the present invention has excellent antibacterial properties;
[0020] 2. When the Cu element is added to the medical antibacterial high-entropy alloy of the present invention to obtain antibacterial properties, it does not affect the good biocompatibility of the original TiZrHfNb alloy;
[0021] 3. After the Cu element is added to the medical antibacterial high-entropy alloy of the present invention, the Young's modulus of the alloy does not increase significantly. Description of the Drawings

Figure 1 For the X-ray diffraction results of the high-entropy alloys in Examples 1 to 6, the result analysis found that the TiZrHfNb alloy was a BCC phase, and after doping with Cu element, a copper-rich phase precipitated in the alloy.

[0065] The alloy ingot was cut into small cylinders with a diameter of 3 mm and a height of 4.5 mm. The upper and lower surfaces of the cylinders were polished smoothly and parallel using sandpaper. A universal testing machine was used to conduct room temperature compression experiments on Examples 1-6. The compression rate was 10 -3 s -1 , and the compression stress-strain curves of the alloy at room temperature were obtained as Figure 5 shown. As the applied stress increased, the alloy samples first underwent elastic deformation, then plastic deformation after reaching the yield strength, and fracture occurred when the plastic strain reached a certain value. By comparing the slopes of the elastic deformation segments of the stress-strain curves of Examples 1-6, the following results were obtained: the Young's moduli of Examples 1-6 did not change significantly with the change of Cu content.
