1 Materials Transactions, Vol. 50, No. 10 (2009) pp to 2472 #2009 The Japan Institute of Metals Effects of Phase Constitution of Zr-Nb Alloys on Their Magnetic Susceptibilities Naoyuki Nomura, Yuko Tanaka, Suyalatu, Ryota Kondo, Hisashi Doi, Yusuke Tsutsumi and Takao Hanawa Institute of Biomaterials and Bioengineering, Tokyo Medical and Dental University, Tokyo , Japan The magnetic susceptibilities and microstructures of Zr-Nb binary alloys were investigated to develop a new metallic biomaterial with a low magnetic susceptibility for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The magnetic susceptibility was measured with a magnetic susceptibility balance, and the microstructure was evaluated with an X-ray diffractometer (XRD), an optical microscope (OM), and a transmission electron microscope (TEM). Zr-Nb alloys as-cast showed a minimum value of magnetic susceptibility between 3 and 9 mass% Nb, and the value abruptly increased up to 20 mass% Nb, followed by a gradual increase with the increase of the Nb content. XRD, OM, and TEM revealed that the minimum value of the susceptibility was closely related to the appearance of the athermal! phase in the phase. Since the magnetic susceptibility of Zr-3Nb alloy consisting of an 0 phase was as low as that of Zr-9Nb alloy consisting of the and! phases, that of the! phase was lower than that of the 0 and phases. When Zr-16Nb alloy was heat-treated, the isothermal! phase appeared, and, simultaneously, the magnetic susceptibility decreased. Therefore, the! phase contributes to the decrease of the magnetic susceptibility, independently of the formation process of the! phase. The magnetic susceptibility of the Zr-3Nb alloy as-cast was almost one-third that of Ti-6Al-4V alloy, which is commonly used for medical implant devices. Zr-Nb alloys are useful for medical devices used under MRI. [doi: /matertrans.m ] (Received May 27, 2009; Accepted July 14, 2009; Published September 2, 2009) Keywords: zirconium-niobium alloy, magnetic susceptibility,! phase, phase constitution, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) 1. Introduction Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is widely used as an important diagnostic tool for the whole body, especially for orthopedic and brain surgery. This method has remarkable advantages in obtaining various cross-sectional views and diagnoses of the human body with no invasion and no exposure of the human body to X-ray radiation. However, MRI diagnosing is inhibited when metals are implanted in the body, since metallic implants, such as stainless steels, Co-Cr alloys, and Ti alloys, become magnetized in the intense magnetic field of MRI instrument and artifacts occur on the image. Such artifacts disturb the images of organs and tissues around the implant, preventing exact diagnoses. 1 3) The area affected by the artifacts is related with the magnetic susceptibility of the implants and decreases with a decrease in the magnetic susceptibility. Therefore, the low magnetic susceptibility comparable to the surrounding tissue is favorable. In addition, operations under open MRI have recently been carried out. For such operations, devices with low magnetic susceptibility are also required. On the other hand, metals are absolutely necessary materials for medical implants and devices from the viewpoint of the balance of their mechanical properties, such as strength and toughness, which is superior to that of polymers and ceramics. It is impossible to substitute most metallic medical device materials for polymers or ceramics at present. Therefore, metals with low magnetic susceptibility should be developed for medical treatments as MRI becomes increasingly popular. Among various metals, we focus on Zr because it has lower magnetic susceptibility (1:3 10 cm 3 g 1 ) than Ti (3:2 10 cm 3 g 1 ), 4) low cytotoxicity, 5) and high corrosion resistance due to the passive oxide formation on the surface. However, the mechanical reliability is not sufficient given Temperature, T / C C 863 C (αzr) 18.8 L 1740 C (βzr, βnb) 988 C C C Mass percent of Niobium (%) Fig. 1 Zr-Nb binary alloy phase diagram. 7) that unalloyed Zr is applied for the structural biomaterials use, because Ti-6Al-4V alloy is currently used as metallic implants with low magnetic susceptibility. As an alloying element to Zr, we employed Nb because it is an effective strengthening element for Zr 6) with low cytotoxicity 5) and low magnetic susceptibility (2:2 10 cm 3 g 1 ). 4) Figure 1 shows a Zr-Nb binary alloy phase diagram. 7) The (hcp)+(bcc) phase and Zr (Zr-rich )+Nb (Nb-rich ) phase regions exist at lower temperatures, while the phase is stable in all compositions of Zr-Nb alloy at higher temperatures. The magnetic susceptibility of an alloy depends on the composition and phase constitution. 8) Therefore, in order to develop Zr-Nb alloys having low magnetic susceptibility, it is inevitable to evaluate the relationship between the magnetic susceptibility and phase constitution for the alloys. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of the composition and phase constitution of Zr-Nb binary alloys on the magnetic susceptibility.
2 Effects of Phase Constitution of Zr-Nb Alloys on Their Magnetic Susceptibilities Experimental Procedure 2.1 Specimen preparation Pure Zr buttons were first prepared by arc-melting from sponge Zr (99.6 mass%) prior to obtaining Zr-Nb binary alloys. Various compositions of Zr-xNb alloys (x: 0, 3, 6, 9, 12, 16, 18, 20, 30, and 40 mass%) were arc-melted as buttons from a pure Zr button and Nb shot (99.9 mass%) in Ar gas (99.9%) on a water-cooled cupper hearth in an arc-melting furnace. The buttons were flipped, and the furnace was evacuated to less than Pa. After the introduction of Ar gas to the furnace, the buttons were arc-melted. This cycle was repeated at least 5 times. The buttons were re-melted with a centrifugal casting machine and cast into a sand mold mainly consisting of ammonium phosphate and alumina. The mold was kept at room temperature. The dimension of the cast was a bar with 3 mm in diameter and 25 mm in length. The surface reaction layer with the mold was removed by sandblasting and polishing with emery papers up to 150 mm. A pure Nb (99.9 mass%) bar with the same dimensions was also prepared as a control without melting because of the high melting point (2762 K). In addition, a commercially available Co-Cr-Mo alloy (F-75), CP Ti (grade 2), Ti-6Al-4V alloy, and Ti-6Al-7Nb alloy were obtained and shaped with the same dimensions. Their magnetic susceptibilities were measured for comparison. 2.2 Heat treatment To examine the effect of heat treatment on the magnetic susceptibility, the Zr-16Nb showing high strength and good ductility in the Zr-Nb binary alloys 6) was heat-treated according to the following procedure. The polished casting bar was encapsulated in a Pyrex tube in a vacuum of less than 10 3 Pa and solution-treated at 1273 K for 3.6 ks, followed by quenching in iced water and simultaneously fracturing the tube. The solution-treated and quenched (STQ) specimens were re-encapsulated and aged at 573 K and 673 K for 14.4 ks and 79.2 ks, followed by quenching in iced water and simultaneously fracturing the tube. 2.3 Microstructural characterization The constituent phase was analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) with Cu K under 45 kv and 40 ma. The microstructures of Zr-Nb alloys were characterized with an optical microscope (OM) and a transmission electron microscope (TEM). The specimens for OM and XRD were polished with emery papers up to #1500 and then electropolished with a solution of 5%HClO 4 and 95%CH 3 OH at 26 V and 223 K. TEM observations were performed at an operating voltage of 100 kv. 2.4 Magnetic susceptibility The magnetic susceptibilities of Zr-(0-40)Nb alloys as-cast and heat-treated Zr-16Nb alloys were measured using a magnetic susceptibility balance with a magnetic field of 0.35 T at room temperature. The direction of the applied magnetic field was normal to the longitudinal direction of the casting bar. The magnetic susceptibility was measured at least 3 times for each casting bar.

The magnetic susceptibility does not always increase with the increase of the Nb content, especially if the content is less than 20 mass% Nb. The magenetic susceptibility of Zr-Nb alloys decreases from 0 to 3 mass% Nb, shows a minimum value from 3 to 9 mass% Nb, and abruptly increases up to 20 mass% Nb, followed by a gradual increase linearly with increasing the Nb content. Figure 3 shows the magnetic susceptibility of Zr-16Nb alloys. The magnetic susceptibility of Zr-16Nb alloys decreases with the aging treatments and shows a minimum value at 573 K for 79.2 ks. However, the value increases by aging at 673 K for 79.2 ks. Figure 4 shows the magnetic susceptibilities of Zr-3Nb alloy and metals used for medical devices. It should be noted that the magnetic susceptibility of Zr-3Nb alloys is almost one-third that of Ti-6Al-4V alloy. This result indicates that the Zr-Nb alloy suppresses the artifacts in MRI. 3.2 Microstructure and constituent phase of Zr-Nb alloys as-cast Figure 5 shows OM images of Zr-(3-20)Nb alloys as-cast. 573 K, 79.2 ks 673 K, 14.4 ks 673 K, 79.2 ks Magnetic susceptibilities of Zr-16Nb alloys in several states.

An acicular structure was observed in coarse equiaxed grains in Zr-3Nb and Zr-6Nb alloys. The size of the acicular structure in Zr-6Nb alloy seems to be smaller than that in Zr3Nb alloy. In Zr-9Nb alloy, coarse equiaxed grains were observed, and the acicular structure disappeared. In Zr-12Nb alloy, fine dispersions with a different morphology from the acicular structure were observed. In Zr-16Nb and Zr-20Nb alloys, needle-like structures larger than those in Zr-3Nb and Zr-6Nb alloys were observed in the grains. In Zr-30Nb and Zr-40Nb alloys, coarse grains were observed, and a much less acicular structure was noted, but the morphology is not shown in Fig. 5. Figure 6 shows the XRD profiles of Zr-(3-40)Nb alloys ascast. The phase was observed in Zr-(3, 6, 9, and 12) Nb alloys. The intensity of peaks originating from the phase decreased witthe increase of the Nb content. On the other hand, the phase was observed in Zr-(6, 9, 16, 20, 30, and 40) Nb alloys. The intensity from the phase increases with the increase of the Nb content. It is noteworthy that Fig. 5 OM images of Zr-Nb alloys as-cast.

Except for the existence of unknown peaks in Zr- 16Nb and Zr-20Nb alloys, the phase constitution of Zr-Nb alloys as-cast was similar to that of STQ Zr-Nb alloys. 9) Figure 7 shows TEM images of Zr-6Nb alloy as-cast.

Therefore, the acicular structure corresponds to the 0 phase, which is formed by martensitic transformation. Therefore, the phase observed in Zr-3Nb alloy (Fig. 6) should be also the 0 phase.

Small precipitates in the large grains were observed in Zr-16Nb alloys aged at 573 K for 14.4 ks and 79.2 ks, while a needle-like structure was observed in the STQ and as-cast samples (Fig. 5). On the other hand, the acicular structure was observed in Zr-16Nb alloys aged at 673 K for 14.4 ks and 79.2 ks. The amount of the acicular structure increases with the aging time. Figure 9 shows the XRD profiles of Zr-16Nb alloys. Peaks in the 2 range from 30 to 40 degrees are also shown in the figure. Logarithmic intensity was applied to observe the weak peaks. In Zr-16Nb alloy as-cast and its alloy in STQ states, the phase was dominantly observed, and unknown peaks that disagree with the peaks from the,, and! phases were also detected. In the aged specimens, the and! phases were observed. As the aging temperature is higher and the aging time is longer, the intensity of peaks originating from the and! phases tends to increase.

Figure 10 shows dark-field TEM images of Zr-16Nb alloy aged at 573 K for 14.4 ks using the diffraction spot from the! phase. This observation revealed that the! phase was precipitated in the phase and the morphology of the! phase was cuboidal with a size of about 10 nm. The morphology of the! phase is in good agreement with that reported previously for Zr-15Nb alloy. 10) 4. Discussion 100 nm Fig. 10 TEM image of Zr-16Nb alloy aged at 573 K for 14.4 ks. Darkfield image and selected area diffraction patterns. 4.1 Relationship between the constituent phase and the magnetic susceptibility of Zr-Nb alloys as-cast When Zr-Nb alloys as-cast contain more than 20 mass%nb, the magnetic susceptibility gradually increases with the increase of the Nb content (Fig. 2). This result is reasonable because a solid solution is stabilized at more than 20 mass%nb in the as-cast condition and the magnetic susceptibility of pure Nb is higher than that of pure Zr. 4) Thus, the magnetic susceptibility was influenced by the composition, i.e., the electron density. Therefore, it is considered that the magnetic susceptibility changes linearly in a composition range over 20 mass% Nb. On the other hand, Collings et al. reported that the magnetic susceptibility depends on the constitution phases and their volume fraction. 8) The magnetic susceptibility of the Zr-Nb alloy system ( Zr-Nb ) is expressed as follows: Zr-Nb ¼ V 0 0 þ V þ V!! ; ð1þ where 0,, and! are the magnetic susceptibility of the 0,, and! phases, respectively, and V 0,V, and V! are the volume fraction of the 0,, and! phases, respectively. Table 1 summarizes the phase constitutions of Zr-Nb alloys as-cast. With decreasing Nb content in the range from 9 to 20 mass%, the! phase clearly appears in the phase, and the magnetic susceptibility suddenly decreases linearly and shows a minimum value (Fig. 2). This suggests that the magnetic susceptibility of the! phase is lower than that of the phase, as shown in eq. (1). In Zr-9Nb alloy, the volume fraction of the phase is considered to be larger than that of the! phase, judging from the X-ray intensity of each phase (Fig. 6). Thus, it is possible to decrease the magnetic susceptibility when the volume fraction of! phase increases. In Zr-3Nb alloy, the magnetic susceptibility of Zr-Nb alloys still shows a minimum value in Zr-Nb alloys as-cast (Fig. 2). Since the 0 phase was dominant in this alloy, this susceptibility corresponds to that of the 0 phase. When the Zr-3Nb alloy possesses the bcc structure, the magnetic susceptibility can be estimated by the extrapolation line from the susceptibility of Zr-40Nb and Zr-30Nb alloys, both of which consist of the phase. However, the line passes through higher values than the value measured at Zr-3Nb alloy. Therefore, it is considered that the magnetic susceptibility of the 0 phase is lower than that of the phase. On the other hand, judging from the extrapolation line between 9 and 20 mass%, the magnetic susceptibility of the 0 phase should be higher than that of the! phase. Therefore, the relationship between the magnetic susceptibility of each phase is concluded to be as follows: > 0 >!. 4.2 Effect of heat treatment on the phase constitution and magnetic susceptibility of Zr-16Nb alloys As shown in Fig. 9, the! phase is formed from the phase-dominant Zr-16Nb alloy as-cast by aging at 573 K or 673 K. The! phase precipitation temperature is in agreement with that in a previous report. 11) Thus, it was confirmed that the transformation from to! phase occurs in the range from 573 to 673 K in this study. In addition, the peaks form the! and phases were more visible at 673 K for 79.2 ks. This suggests that the prolonged aging at this temperature results in the phase precipitation from the þ! phase. In Ti-Nb alloys, the same phase transformation from þ! to þ phase was reported by prolonged aging between 648 and 698 K. 12) Thus, the similar phase transformation to that in Ti-Nb alloys may occur in Zr-16Nb alloy around 673 K. However, the nucleation site of the phase should be clarified in further research. As shown in Figs. 2 and 3, the magnetic susceptibility of Zr-Nb alloys varies depending on not only the composition but also the aging time and temperature. The magnetic susceptibility change in the aged Zr-16Nb alloys may be also related to the constituent phase. The magnetic susceptibility of the Zr-16Nb alloy as-cast shows the highest value because the phase is dominant. Although the reason that the
7 2472 N. Nomura et al. phase was precipitated in the alloy in STQ state is unknown, the magnetic susceptibility of the alloy is lower than that of the alloy as-cast. When the! phase appears in the alloy with the aging treatment, the magnetic susceptibility clearly decreases. It is noteworthy that the susceptibility increases again when the phase appears by aging at 673 K for 79.2 ks. The relationship between the magnetic susceptibility and the constituent phase of the aged alloys is in good agreement with that in the as-cast alloys. Accordingly, the! phase contributes to lowering the magnetic susceptibility when athermally formed during cooling or isothermally formed during aging, although it is still unknown which! phase has lower magnetic susceptibility. The magnetic susceptibility of metals is dependent on the free electronic density and the Fermi energy. It has been reported that the Fermi energy of the!-ti is different from that of the -Ti, 13) suggesting that the difference may occur between - and!-zr. In addition, the electrical resistivity of Ti-V alloys increases as the! phase in the phase appears. 14) The phase decomposition is also observed in the Zr-16Nb alloy. Therefore, it is considered that the change of the magnetic susceptibility of Zr alloys may be caused by differences in the electronic structure of the! phase from that of the and phases. Further studies are still required to clarify the reason. It is well-known that the! phase is lack of ductility. From the viewpoint of mechanical reliability, Zr-3Nb alloy consisting the 0 phase would be one of the candidates for medical devices used under MRI although the magnetic susceptibility of Zr-Nb alloys as-cast shows minimum value from 3 to 9 mass%. 5. Conclusions The magnetic susceptibilities and microstructures of Zr- Nb binary alloys were investigated, and the relationship between the magnetic susceptibility and the phase constitution was discussed. Zr-Nb alloys as-cast showed a minimum value of magnetic susceptibility between 3 and 9 mass% Nb, and the value abruptly increased up to 20 mass% Nb, followed by a gradual increase with the increase of the Nb content. The minimum value of the susceptibility was closely related with the appearance of the athermal! phase in the phase. Since the magnetic susceptibility of Zr-3Nb alloy consisting of the 0 phase was as low as that of Zr-9Nb alloy consisting of the and! phases, that of the! phase was lower than that of the 0 and phases. When Zr-16Nb alloy was heat-treated, the isothermal! phase appeared, and, simultaneously, the magnetic susceptibility decreased. Therefore, the! phase contributes to the decrease of the magnetic susceptibility independently of the formation process of the! phase. The magnetic susceptibility of the Zr-3Nb alloy as-cast was almost one-third that of Ti-6Al-4V alloy, which is commonly used for medical implant devices. Zr-Nb alloys are thus useful for medical devices used under MRI. Acknowledgements The authors would like to thank Dr. S. Ichinose for the TEM observations.
