摘要
Developing new low modulus structures is important for reducing the risk of aseptic loosening during loading of implant materials. However, an alloy that may also confer some advantage at preventing septic loosening could dramatically improve the outcomes for patients. Nevertheless, the predictive power of current models remains limited to common alloying additions. As such, this study considers the mechanical properties of a range of Ti-Nb-Au superelastic alloys to elucidate the composition range for which low modulus structures can be achieved. These modulus values are compared to other critical design parameters such as strain recovery and strength. It was found that Au additions are effective at suppressing the formation of the omega phase and allow alloys with lower moduli to be achieved. It was also shown that low beta phase stability is critical for achieving the lowest modulus, and that this susceptibility to transform to a martensite may enable higher strengths to be achieved. However, this low beta phase stability also limits the strain recovery that may be achieved meaning these two properties are not necessarily independently tuneable. These data provide important context for the design of new systems containing unusual alloying additions such as Au.
