Thespecimens are weighed after each cleaning, and the weight lossis the

17、 measure of abrasive wear to the specimen.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method provides a means to evaluate theresistance to particle shedding of a thermal spray coating. Suchparticle shedding might occur during surgical insertion of animplant or as the result of micromotion of the implant af

18、terinsertion.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 as substrate preparationbefore coating, surface texture, coating technique variables, orpostcoating treatments, any of which may

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

21、 Cleaning Unit, for cleaning specimens afterabrading.6.6 Drying Oven, capable of operation at 100 6 2C, fordrying specimens.6.7 Analytical Balance, capable of weighing specimens toan accuracy of 0.0001 g.7. Test Specimen7.1 Abrasion test specimens shall be approximately 10-cmsquares or 10-cm diamete

22、r circles of at least 1.6 mm but notgreater than 6.5 mm thickness, with a 6.5 mm diameter holethrough the center to allow the specimen to be secured to thespecimen holder of the TaberAbraser. For substrates other thantitanium, consideration shall be given to the weight of the testspecimen relative t

23、o the capacity of the analytical balance.NOTE 1For specimens thicker than 6.5 mm but less than 12.7 mm, anextension nut such as type S-212or equivalent may be used in place of theclamp nut. When using the S-21 extension nut, the clamp plate is not usedand the specimen center hole shall be 9.6 mm.7.2

24、 The coating shall be applied in a manner representativeof that used on the finished surgical implant.7.3 Prepare a minimum of seven specimens. If there is morethan one coating to evaluate, a minimum of six samples foreach coating shall be prepared and at least one set shall containseven samples.7.4

25、 Of the seven sample set, one sample shall be selected todetermine the time required for ultrasonic cleaning.7.5 One specimen, randomly selected from each group ofsix specimens, shall be reserved to measure weight loss causedby ultrasonic cleaning. This specimen shall be called the“blank” specimen a

26、nd shall be weighed, cleaned, and re-weighed for an equal number of times to the cleaning andweighing of the abraded specimen.8. Procedure8.1 General Information:8.1.1 If there is more than one set of specimens to test, thespecimens shall be tested in a random sequence.8.1.2 A single complete specim

27、en run shall consist of aseries of partial runs, commencing with an initial two-cyclepartial run and continuing until 100 cycles have been com-pleted. Once a specimen run is initiated, no other specimensshall be tested using the same wheel until the specimen run isfinished.8.1.3 At the start of each

28、 new complete specimen run, thedisplay indicating the number of cycles run shall be reset. 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

29、run.8.2 Ultrasonic CleaningBefore running the battery oftests, the time required for ultrasonic cleaning shall be deter-mined.8.2.1 Using the analytical balance, weigh the seventhsample as described in 7.4 no fewer than three times and recordthe average weight of these measurements.8.2.2 Prepare the

30、 Taber Abraser following steps 8.4.2 to8.4.9.8.2.3 Set the Taber Abraser for ten cumulative cycles andstart the turntable.8.2.4 Clean the sample for ten minutes with a fresh salinesolution (see 8.4.1), with the ultrasonic cleaner to be used forthe coating analysis.8.2.5 Place the cleaned sample in a

31、 100C oven and dry for10 min.8.2.6 Allow the sample to cool to room temperature beforeweighing.8.2.7 Using the analytical balance, weigh the sample nofewer than three times and record the average weight of thesemeasurements.8.2.8 Repeat 8.2.4 to 8.2.7 until the same mass (withinbalance error) is rec

32、orded for two consecutive cleanings.8.2.9 Record the total number of cleanings performed in8.2.4 to 8.2.8.8.2.10 Determine the required cleaning time necessary toobtain a stable mass, as (10 (x 1) min, where x is the totalnumber of cleanings determined in 8.2.9.NOTE 2Handle specimens by the edges to

33、 prevent unintentionalparticle shedding.8.3 Reference StandardsEach group of six specimensshall include one unabraded “blank” specimen, as specified in7.5. Once in every six tests, an unabraded specimen shall beused as a control to determine the weight loss caused by theultrasonic cleaning. This spe

34、cimen shall be weighed, cleanedfor the time calculated in 8.2.10, and reweighed for as manyF1978 172times as would normally be done if abrasion testing were beingperformed. These values shall be logged as “blank” weight lossvalues.8.4 Operation:8.4.1 Prepare a fresh cleaning solution for the ultraso

35、niccleaner by adding 0.1 6 0.005 g of reagent grade NaCl to eachlitre of deionized water8.4.2 Resurface the abrading wheels using the Taber WheelRefacer Model 250 for each new specimen. Check the diameterof the wheel. It is essential that the diameter of the abradingwheels not fall below the marked

36、minimum level (44.4 mm)over the course of the test. Should the wheel diameter fallbelow the labeled mark, the test run shall be discarded and anew specimen shall be run in its place with a new pair ofabrading wheels.8.4.3 Mount the H-22 Calibrade wheels by placing thewheel marked “Left Wheel” on the

37、 left hand abrading head andthe wheel marked “Right Wheel” on the right hand abradinghead, with the labels facing toward each other.8.4.4 Abrasion shall be done with only the 250-g mass ofthe abrading head assembly. No extra weights shall be added tothe abrading head.8.4.5 Clean the specimen for the

38、 time determined in 8.2.10using an ultrasonic cleaner with saline solution as defined in8.4.1. This solution shall be changed to a fresh solution beforethe first cleaning done that day.8.4.5.1 Place the cleaned specimen in a 100C oven for 10min to dry.8.4.5.2 Allow the specimen to cool to room tempe

39、raturebefore weighing.8.4.5.3 Using the analytical balance, weigh the specimen nofewer than three times, and record the average of these weightmeasurements on a data sheet.8.4.6 Place the specimen on the Taber Abraser turntable,coating side up such that the screw projects through the hole inthe cent

40、er of the specimen. Place the clamp plate over thespecimen, and secure the specimen and clamp plate to theturntable using the clamp nut.8.4.7 Lower the vacuum pick-up nozzle. The gap betweenthe specimen and vacuum pick-up nozzle should be adjusted to3 mm.8.4.8 Lower the abrading heads gently so that

41、 the abradingwheels rest on the surface of the specimen.8.4.9 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 100. Start the Taber vacuum prior to beginning the testby d

42、epressing the “vacuum only” key. Let the vacuum run forno less than5stoallow the vacuum to reach full power, thenstart the turntable rotation by pressing the “start” key. When theturntable rotation for the specific partial run is completed, turnoff the abraser and vacuum by pressing the “stop” key.N

43、OTE 3The initial partial run shall be 2 cycles. The second partial runshall be 3 cycles (5 cumulative cycles). The third partial run shall be 5cycles (10 cumulative cycles).And the fourth partial run shall be 90 cycles(100 cumulative cycles).8.4.10 Clean, dry, cool, and weigh the specimen as before(

44、see 8.4.5).8.4.11 Repeat 8.4.6 to 8.4.10 for 5, 10, and 100 cumulativecycles.8.4.12 Repeat the steps specified in 8.4.2 to 8.4.11 for allspecimens not reserved as blanks for the test.8.4.13 Run each blank through the steps specified in 8.4.5 to8.4.11 skipping the steps specified in 8.4.6 to 8.4.9.9.
