低弹性模量生物医用型高熵合金的成分设计及性能研究

Stress shielding effect of metallic biomaterials due to the high elastic modulus would induce bone resorption during long term service. High entropy alloys (HEAs) exhibit excellent mechanical, physical and chemical properties owing to the characteristics of multi-principal element composition and simple solid solution structure. Good corrosion resistance and biocompatibility of TiZr-transition element HEAs are benefit for biomedical application. To further decreasing the elastic modulus of these HEAs is the key issue for promoting the HEAs as implant materials in field of biomedical application. Moreover, limited work has been done for understanding the correlation of elastic modulus, biocorrosion behaviors and biocompatibility with composition and microstructure of HEAs. In this project, biomedical HEAs with low elastic modulus, high strength, excellent biocorrosion resistance and good biocompatibility will be designed and developed via proper composition design and element addition based on Ti-Nb-Ta-Zr-Hf HEA system. The influence of the alloy composition on the phase structural stability will also be clarified. The correlation of mechanical properties, biocorrosion behavior and biocompatibility with alloy composition and microstructure, and the corresponding mechanism will also be illuminated. The proposed project, which will contribute to the enrichment of fundamentals of biomedical HEAs, extension of the applications of HEAs, is of great scientific significances.
