鑄造Ti-6Al-7Nb合金經Nd:YAG雷射焊接後在人工唾液中之疲勞性質

Fatigue Property of Nd : YAG Laser-welded Cast Ti-6Al-7Nb Alloy Joints in Artificial Saliva

指導教授 : 李慈心 黃何雄

摘要


目前製作牙科金屬補綴物仍然是以包埋鑄造的方式進行製作,然而此方法對於較大型的牙科金屬補綴物容易產生因為收縮膨脹而導致變形的情形發生。另外,當牙科金屬補綴物在置入病人口腔中之後也會因為病人進行清潔工作而將義齒取出及戴入的過程中,以及日常生活進食的咀嚼而產生應力,導致牙科金屬補綴物較脆弱的結構部份容易發生疲勞破壞而需要進行雷射焊接修補的情形發生。 目前一些口腔保健用品大多含有氟,而有研究報告指出氟離子容易對鈦金屬造成腐蝕,因此本研究是探討經由 Nd:YAG 雷射焊接後的Ti-6Al-7Nb合金於模擬口腔環境下之疲勞性質。Ti-6Al-7Nb合金經鑄造後分別以310 V、330 V及350 V的焊接電壓 ( 相當於焊接能量11 J、14 J及17 J ) 進行Nd:YAG雷射焊接,再於空氣中、不含氟之人工唾液及含有0.5%NaF之人工唾液中進行疲勞試驗。實驗結果顯示,增加Nd:YAG雷射焊接能量可提高鑄造Ti-6Al-7Nb合金焊接連接體的疲勞壽命;鑄造Ti-6Al-7Nb合金焊接連接體在空氣中的疲勞壽命明顯高於在人工唾液中以及含氟人工唾液中之值,然而在人工唾液環境中試驗之疲勞壽命與含氟人工唾液環境中試驗之疲勞壽命兩者之間並沒有顯著性的差異。

The denture prosthesis was still made by Investment Casting technique at present time. But this method had problems such as shrinkage and expansion which may result in deformation of the castings, especially for some large sized prosthesis. Meanwhile, fatigue fracture of denture prosthesis may take place due to stress after repeated insertion and removal as for clean up or under mastication. To fix the prosthetic fracture, laser-welding is recommended for Ti alloys. This study was to investigate the fatigue property of Nd : YAG laser-welded Ti-6Al-7Nb alloys in artificial saliva. Commercial cast Ti-6Al-7Nb alloy joints were proceeded to Nd:YAG laser welding (welding voltage: 310, 330, 350 V equivalent to energy: 11, 14, 17 J) for fatigue test. According to the present studies, fluoride ions may induce the corrosion of Ti joints. As most OTC oral hygiene products containing fluoride ions, besides in air and artificial saliva, the fatigue lives of Ti-6Al-7Nb joints were also evaluated in fluoride-containing (0.5% NaF) artificial saliva. The results showed that increasing Nd:YAG laser welding energy would increase the fatigue life of Ti-6Al-7Nb alloy; the average fatigue life of laser-welded Ti-6Al-7Nb alloy joints in air environment was higher than that obtained in both artificial saliva groups (with and without fluoride). And there was no significant difference between the fluoride-containing group and artificial saliva (without fluoride) group for fatigue life.
