The present study investigates the anisotropic microstructure, nanomechanical and corrosion behavior of Ti–13Nb–13Zr biomedical alloys, which were fabricated using the direct energy deposition (DED) method. The microstructure of the as-deposited material was studied using a field-emission scanning electron microscope (SEM), electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). We found anisotropic mechanical behavior using nanoindentation from strain rate sensitivity and creep tests. For the maximum load of 50 mN, the x-y plane (normal to the building direction) shows better indentation hardness and lower strain rate sensitivity value (0.014) compared to the x-z plane (0.022) (parallel to the building direction). The difference in the indentation hardness was mainly attributed to the smaller equiaxed prior-β grains and finer α’ martensitic laths on the x-y plane. In terms of creep behavior, the x-y planes show better creep strength than the x-z plane. Meanwhile, both planes show a very high creep exponent, which signifies a similar creep mechanism, i.e., dislocation based. Moreover, we further found the anisotropic corrosion behavior using electrochemical tests. Corrosion results reveal that the x-y plane is more corrosion-resistant than the x-z plane. In summary, the x-y plane of the direct energy deposited Ti–13Nb–13Zr alloy possesses better strength and corrosion resistance due to its finer microstructure. |
