Martensitic stainless steel alloy for use with surgical needles
A martensitic stainless steel alloy comprised of 11.5 to 12.5% chromium by weight, between 9.5 and 10.2% nickel by weight, molybdenum 0 to 4.7% and the combination of titanium and tantalum ranging from 0.89% to 5.6%, with the remainder comprising iron and trace elements, containing less than 0.1% ca...

Zusammenfassung: | A martensitic stainless steel alloy comprised of 11.5 to 12.5% chromium by weight, between 9.5 and 10.2% nickel by weight, molybdenum 0 to 4.7% and the combination of titanium and tantalum ranging from 0.89% to 5.6%, with the remainder comprising iron and trace elements, containing less than 0.1% carbon is claimed. The formula for martensite finish temperature, Mf ( DEG F), enables one to predict the temperature at which a steel is entirely converted to martensite, and is described as Mf = 1027 - 78% Ni - 27% Ti - 34% Mo. A desirable needle alloy for this amount is nickel at 10%, molybdenum at about 2.7%, and titanium at about 2%. |
