The invention discloses a preparation method of a
zirconium-based
alloy in-situ oxidation
coating for a
joint prosthesis, the medical
joint prosthesis and application, the method is suitable for
zirconium-based alloys (containing Zr-2. 5Nb, Zr-Nb-Ti, Zr-Mo-Nb and other systems) prepared or forged through
electron beam melting (EBM) and
selective laser melting (SLM),
oxygen atoms are promoted to diffuse into the material by repeatedly creating
oxygen concentration gradients, and the
oxygen concentration gradient of the
zirconium-based alloys (containing Zr-2. 5Nb, Zr-Nb-Ti, Zr-Mo-Nb and other systems) is increased. And a high-
oxygen diffusion transition layer and the ZrO-based in-situ oxidation
ceramic coating are accurately formed, and meanwhile, a
coupling mathematical model of oxidation temperature (T)-
ceramic coating thickness (d)-
wear resistance (WR) is established, so that double accurate regulation and control of the coating performance and the product size are realized. The prepared coating is tightly combined with the matrix through the high-
oxygen diffusion transition layer, the depth of the
transition layer exceeds that of a traditional process by 40% or above, and the size variation of the
prosthesis after oxidation is smaller than or equal to + / -0.01 mm; the surface
hardness of the coating is larger than or equal to 1053 Hv, the wear rate is smaller than or equal to 0.8 * 10 mm / (Nm), the
wear resistance and size stability of the zirconium-based
alloy are remarkably improved, the problems of sterile looseness and out-of-control size precision caused by wear chippings in long-term service of joint prostheses are solved, and the method is suitable for large-scale production of medical joint prostheses such as hip joints and knee joints.
