Summary of Test Method4.1 This test method uses a Taber Abraser with H-22Calibrade (trademarked) wheels2and the 250-g mass of theabrading head without added weights. Specimens are abradedrepeatedly and cleaned ultra

9、sonically for a set number (2 to100) of rotational cycles. The specimens are weighed after eachcleaning, and the mass loss is the measure of abrasive wear tothe specimen.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method provides a means to evaluate theresistance to particle shedding of a thermal spray coa

10、ting. Suchparticle shedding might occur during surgical insertion of animplant or as the result of micromotion of the implant afterinsertion.5.2 This abrasion test method may be useful for qualitycontrol analysis of a coating, and it can be used to evaluate theeffects of processing variables, such a

11、s substrate preparationbefore coating, surface texture, coating technique variables, orpostcoating treatments, any of which may influence the sus-ceptibility of the coating to particle shedding.5.3 This abrasion test method is for flat plate-shaped speci-mens of a size sufficient that the wheels of

12、the abrader do notleave the surface of the specimen. It is not recommended,however, for devices with other shapes or sizes.6.

Procedure8.1 General Test Conditions:8.1.1 Prepare a fresh cleaning solution for the ultrasoniccleaner by adding 0.1 6 0.005 g of reagent grade NaCl to eachlitre of deionized water.8.1.2 Resurface the abrading wheels using the Taber WheelRefacer Mo

22、del 250 for each new specimen. Check the radius ofthe wheel. It is essential that the radius of the abrading wheelsnot fall below the marked minimum level over the course of thetest. Should the wheel radius fall below the labeled mark, thetest run shall be discarded and a new specimen shall be run i

23、nits place.8.1.3 Mount the wheels by placing the wheel marked “LeftWheel” on the left hand abrading head and the wheel marked“Right Wheel” on the right hand abrading head.8.1.4 Before running the battery of tests, the ultrasoniccleaner shall be evaluated. This shall be done by by selectingthe coated

24、 extra coated sample from Step 7.3, 7.5, andabrading.8.1.4.1 Using the analytical balance, weigh the sample nofewer than three times and record the average weight of thesemeasurements.8.1.4.2 Place the sample on the Taber Abraser, as describedin 8.2.58.1.4.3 Set the Taber Abraser for ten cumulative

25、cycles andstart the turntable.8.1.4.4 Clean the sample for ten minutes with a fresh salinesolution, using the ultrasonic cleaner to be used for the coatinganalysis.8.1.4.5 Place the cleaned sample in a 100C oven and dryfor 10 min.8.1.4.6 Allow the sample to cool to room temperaturebefore weighing8.1

26、.4.7 Using the analytical balance, weigh the sample nofewer than three times and record the average weight of thesemeasurements.8.1.4.8 Repeat Steps 8.1.4.4-8.1.4.7 until the same mass(within balance error) is recorded for two consecutive clean-ings.8.1.4.9 Record the total number of cleanings used

27、in8.1.4.4-8.1.4.8.8.1.4.10 Determine the required cleaning time necessary toobtain a stable mass, as (10(n-1) min, where n is the totalnumber of cleanings determined in 8.1.4.9.8.1.5 Abrasion shall be done with only the 250-g mass ofthe abrading head assembly. No extra weights shall be added tothe a

28、brading head.8.1.6 If there is more than one set of specimens to test, thespecimens shall be tested in a random sequence.8.1.7 A single complete specimen run shall consist of aseries of partial runs, commencing with an initial two-cyclepartial run and continuing until 100 cycles have been com-pleted

29、. Once a specimen run is initiated, no other specimensshall be tested using the same wheel until the specimen run isfinished.8.1.8 At the start of each new complete specimen run, thedisplay indicating the number of cycles run shall be reset. Thisis done by pressing the “reset cycles completed” butto

30、n. TheTaber Abraser counts cumulative cycles (cycles completed)and so the number of cycles set for each partial run shall be thecumulative number of cycles (2, 5, 10, or 100) designated asthe end of that partial run.8.1.9 Reference StandardsEach group of six specimensshall include one unabraded “bla

31、nk” specimen, as specified in7.4. Once in every six tests, an unabraded specimen shall beused as a control to determine the weight loss caused by theultrasonic cleaning. This specimen shall be weighed, cleaned,and reweighed for as many cycles as would normally be usedif abrasion testing were being p

32、erformed. These values shall belogged as “blank” weight loss values.8.2 Operation:8.2.1 Clean the specimen for the time determined in8.1.4.10 using an ultrasonic cleaner with saline solution. Thissolution shall be changed to a fresh solution before the firstcleaning done that day.8.2.2 Place the cle

33、aned specimen in a 100C oven for 10min to dry.8.2.3 Allow the specimen to cool to room temperaturebefore weighing.8.2.4 Using the analytical balance, weigh the specimen nofewer than three times, and record the average of these weightmeasurements on a data sheet.8.2.5 Place the specimen on the Taber

34、Abraser, coating sideup such that the specimen screw projects through the hole inF 1978 00 (2007)e22the center of the specimen. Place the clamp plate over thespecimen, and secure the specimen and clamp to the turntableusing the clamp nut. Lower the abrading heads gently so thatabrading wheels rest o

35、n the surface of the specimen. Lower thevacuum pick up after the abrading heads are resting on thecoating surface.8.2.6 Set the Taber Abraser to reach the appropriate numberof cumulative cycles (2, 5, 10, or 100). Set the vacuum suctionlevel by depressing the “vacuum suction level” key andentering 1

Precision and Bias11.1 An interlaboratory study (ILS) was conducte

43、d to es-tablish the precision and bias of this test method. The numberof laboratories, materials, and determinations in this study meetthe minimum requirements for determining precision as pre-scribed in Practice E 691 (see Table 1). These tests were donefor 2, 5, 10, and 100 cycles for a total of 1

44、2 material and cyclecombinations.11.2 PrecisionPrecision, characterized by repeatability,Sr, and reproducibility, SR, have been determined for thematerials and cycle combinations provided in Table 2.12.

47、of a thermal spray coating.X1.3 Measurements are taken at 2, 5, 10, and 100 cycles. Aminimum of two cycles was chosen to ensure that the turntableof the Taber Abraser makes at least one complete rotationbefore any abrasion weight loss values are determined. After100 cycles, which is the set maximum

48、number of cycles, themechanism of wear is no longer related to particle shedding.X1.4 The ultrasonic cleaning solution used, as of yet, hashad no corrosive effect on the coupons tested. Deionized wateris used because it is both readily available and has a minimalamount of contaminants. A small amoun

49、t of sodium chloride isadded to the deionized water to neutralize the corrosiveness ofthe water. The amount of salt is well below the amount used fora physiologic saline solution and does not require that thespecimens be rinsed with water after ultrasonic cleaning.ASTM International takes no position respecting the validity of any patent rights asserted in connection with any item mentionedin this standard.
