Phase composition, microstructure, and mechanical properties of porous Ti-Nb-Zr alloys prepared by a two-step foaming powder metallurgy method.

Porous Ti-Nb-Zr alloys with different porosities from 6.06 to 62.8% are prepared by a two-step foaming powder metallurgy method using TiH2, Nb, and Zr powders together with 0 to 50wt% of NH4HCO3. The effects of the amounts of Nb and Zr as well as the sintering temperature (1473 to 1673K) on their phase composition, porosity, morphology, and mechanical characteristics are investigated. By controlling the porosity, Nb and Zr concentrations as well as the sintering temperature, porous Ti-Nb-Zr alloys with different mechanical properties can be obtained, for example, the hardness between 290 and 63HV, the compressive strength between 1530.5 and 73.4MPa, and the elastic modulus between 10.8 and 1.2GPa. The mechanical properties of the sintered porous Ti-Nb-Zr alloys can be tailored to match different requirements for the human bones and are thus potentially useful in the hard tissue implants.
