Abstract:
Objective:To study the mechanical properties of a new titanium alloy with lower elastic modulus for prosthodontic use.Methods:Samples of a newly developed Ti-Nb-Zr-Sn alloy with low elastic modulus were prepared.The microstructure,microhardness profile of the specimen cross section were measured by microhardness test meter and metallurgical microscope.Results:The data of the tensile strength(MPa),yield strength(MPa),elongation(%),elastic modulus(GPa) and microhardness(Hv)of Ti-Nb-Zr-Sn alloy were 681.7,410,6,42.1 and 453 respectively.The microstructure was with fine crystal grains.Conclusion: The microstructure and microhardness profile of the Ti-Nb-Zr-Sn alloy may meet the requirement for dental applications.
