Implants for surgery. Metallic materials - Wrought titanium 15-molybdenum 5-zirconium 3-aluminium alloy

BS ISO 5832-14:2007 Implants for surgery. Metallic materials. Wrought titanium 15-molybdenum 5-zirconium 3-aluminium alloy

No known surgical implant material has ever been shown to cause absolutely no adverse reactions in the human body. However, long-term clinical experience of the use of the material referred to in this part of BS ISO 5832 has shown that an acceptable level of biological response can be expected, when the material is used in appropriate applications.

BS ISO 5832 consists of the following parts, under the general title Implants for surgery:

Metallic materials:

Part 1: Wrought stainless steel

Part 2: Unalloyed titanium

Part 3: Wrought titanium 6-aluminium 4-vanadium alloy

Part 4: Cobalt-chromium-molybdenum casting alloy

Part 5: Wrought cobalt-chromium-tungsten-nickel alloy

Part 6: Wrought cobalt-nickel-chromium-molybdenum alloy

Part 7: Forgeable and cold-formed cobalt-chromium-nickel-molybdenum-iron alloy

Part 8: Wrought cobalt-nickel-chromium-molybdenum-tungsten-iron alloy

Part 9: Wrought high nitrogen stainless steel

Part 11: Wrought titanium 6-aluminium 7-niobium alloy

Part 12: Wrought cobalt-chromium-molybdenum alloy

Part 14: Wrought titanium 15-molybdenum 5-zirconium 3-aluminium alloy

BS ISO 5832-14 specifies the characteristics of, and corresponding test methods for, the wrought titanium 15-molybdenum 5-zirconium 3-aluminium alloy for use in the manufacture of surgical implants.

BS ISO 5832-14 applies to materials in bar form up to a maximum diameter of 100 mm.
