Stainless Steel SUS304:
Medical-grade SUS304 stainless steel (austenitic chromium-nickel alloy), offering excellent corrosion resistance and mechanical properties.
- Biocompatibility: Low risk of allergic reactions or toxicity, ideal for direct tissue contact in medical procedures.
- Mechanical Properties: High tensile strength (approximately 505 MPa) and elongation (up to 40%), providing flexibility without brittleness.
- Surface Finish: Laser-machined for smooth, burr-free edges, reducing the potential for tissue trauma or contamination.
- Thermal Stability: Maintains integrity across a wide temperature range, suitable for sterilization processes like autoclaving.
Nickel-Titanium alloy:
Nitinol (NiTi), a nickel-titanium alloy, is renowned for its superelasticity and shape memory, making it a game-changer in medical applications. With a tensile strength of up to 1200 MPa and elastic modulus of 40–75 GPa, nitinol excels in demanding environments.
Cobalt-chrome alloy:
Cobalt-chrome (CoCr), an alloy of cobalt and chromium often enhanced with molybdenum, is prized for its exceptional strength, corrosion resistance, and biocompatibility. With tensile strength ranging from 800–1500 MPa and hardness of 300–550 HV, CoCr is a cornerstone in medical technology. Popular grades like L605 (Co-Cr-W-Ni) and MP35N (Co-Cr-Ni-Mo) elevate its performance.
