1、Designation:F288511Standard Specification forMetal Injection Molded Titanium-6Aluminum-4VanadiumComponents for Surgical Implant Applications1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F2885;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the cas
2、e of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This specification covers the chemical,mechanical,andmetallurgical requirements for two types of
3、metal injectionmolded(MIM)titanium-6aluminum-4vanadium componentsto be used in the manufacture of surgical implants.1.2 The Type 1 MIM components covered by this specifi-cation may have been densified beyond their as-sintereddensity by post sinter processing.1.3 Values in either inch-pound or SI are
4、 to be regardedseparately as standard.The values stated in each system maynot be exact equivalents;therefore,each system shall be usedindependent of the other.Combining values from the twosystems may result in non-conformance with the specification.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all o
5、f thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM Standards:2B243 Terminology of Powder
