corrosion-resisting steels

Contents of BS EN ISO 734-2:

Equipment Group II Category 1G or 1D

cadmium plating on titanium parts has been documented to result in stress corrosion and also solid metal embrittlement (SME) when exposed to relatively low temperatures

NOTE The technical procedures covered in this British Standard are split into one “standard calibration” (Clause 7)

Standard Specification for Wrought Cobalt-28Chromium-6Molybdenum Alloys for Surgical Implants (UNS R31537, UNS R31538, and UNS R31539) Ingestion-build-98192 corrosion-resisting steels1. Scope* 1. 1 This specification covers the chemical, mechanical, and metallurgical requirements for three wrought cobalt 28chromium 6molybdenum alloys used for surgical implants. The properties specified apply specifically to wrought bar, rod, and wire.
