Why do we need medical alloy powder？

Maybe you haven't heard of medical alloy powder, maybe you don't know what TiNbZr Powder is, it doesn't matter, what we will do today is to learn about the medical alloy powder around us through this article, so as to know their function what is it? and how are they made?

What is medical alloy powder?

1. medical alloy powder is a metal powder formed by partial or complete alloying of two or more components. alloy powders are classified according to their components, including iron alloy powder, copper alloy powder, nickel alloy powder, cobalt alloy powder, aluminum alloy powder, titanium alloy powder and precious metal alloy powder. Pre-alloyed powder is usually prepared by atomizing powder method, and it is a complete alloy powder in the form of solid solution and intermetallic compound. All alloys that can be melted and liquefied can be made into powder by the atomization powder method.

2. Titanium alloy powder is prepared by rotating electrode atomization powder method or inert gas atomization method, and its chemical components are Ti-6A1-4V and Ti-6Al-6V-2Sn. These titanium alloy powders can be formed into near-net-shaped special-shaped components and discs with theoretical density at one time by hot isostatic pressing technology. These products have been used in aircraft engines, fighter jets and helicopters. Titanium alloy powder can also make medical inlaid bones.

What are the uses of TiNbZr Powder?

1. New high-temperature structural materials for aerospace;

2. 3D printing and additive manufacturing;

3. Canning-HIP (Hot Isostatic Pressing);

4. MIM (Metal Injection Molding);

5. Spacecraft various cabins, rudder wings, engine air intakes;

6. Thermal Spray;

7. welding;

8. other public areas.

How TiNbZr Powder is Made

1. The working speed of PREP is greatly improved, the powder sphericity reaches more than 95%, and the fine powder yield is significantly improved.

2. The oxygen increase of active metals such as titanium alloys is controlled within 100ppm, while the oxygen increase of metals such as superalloys can reach 50ppm.

3. The end face feed rod is melted into liquid by plasma arc heating.

4. Electrodes where the liquid is ejected and pulverized into fine droplets under the action of the centrifugal force of high-speed rotation.

5. The droplets eventually form spherical powders under the action of surface tension

Since the invention of medical alloy powders, they have been playing an important role in people's lives. In addition to TiNbZr Powder, there are many types of medical alloy powders.If you are looking for a supplier of medical alloy powder manufacturing equipment with good quality and reasonable price, Guangzhou Sailong Additive Manufacturing Co., Ltd.  is a good choice.
