TM10720 Medical Grade Titanium Alloy Strip Ti-6Al-4V ELI UNS R56401 Grade 23

Medical Grade Titanium Alloy Strip Ti-6Al-4V ELI UNS R56401 Grade 23 Description

Ti-6Al-4V ELI, a titanium alloy containing 6% aluminium and 4% vanadium with extra-low interstitials, is processed into a strip form under controlled rolling and heat treatment. This carefully managed production minimises contaminants and refines the microstructure, making the material suitable for medical implants and surgical instruments. The processing enhances mechanical reliability and biocompatibility, essential for the high-precision demands of clinical applications.

Medical Grade Titanium Alloy Strip Ti-6Al-4V ELI UNS R56401 Grade 23 Packing

The titanium alloy strips are secured in clean-room grade polyethylene bags and further enclosed in moisture-resistant, foam-lined containers. They are stored under controlled temperature conditions to maintain microstructural integrity. Protective inner wraps minimise contamination during transit, and customised labelling is available upon request to accommodate specific shipping and storage protocols.

Additional Information

Titanium alloys are extensively researched for their application in medical devices due to their favourable strength-to-weight ratio and corrosion resistance. These alloys typically undergo controlled thermal and mechanical processing to achieve the desired balance between ductility and toughness. Advancements in microstructural analysis have led to improved processing techniques that enhance the performance of titanium alloys in clinical settings.

Understanding the interplay between alloy composition and mechanical properties is critical for material scientists and engineers. Ongoing research focuses on optimising processing parameters to further improve fatigue resistance and biocompatibility, ensuring that these materials meet the evolving demands of modern medical applications.
