Biomedical Entropy Alloys

EM-500

The EM-500 series biomedical entropy alloys offer excellent biocompatibility, with hardness over HV250, yield strength above 600 MPa, Young’s modulus under 100 GPa, and strong corrosion resistance. Designed for implants and artificial joints, their patented formula outperforms conventional biomedical alloys like 316L stainless steel, CoCrMo, and Ti-6Al-4V.

Material Features

The EM-500 series of biomedical entropy alloys is a patented formula developed using the latest high entropy alloy concepts. It is composed of several main elements with good biocompatibility and has a low Young’s modulus property close to that of bones, which can avoid causing stress shielding effect.

The EM-500 series biomedical entropy alloys exhibit a pitting potential above 1.3V, with significantly better corrosion resistance than 316L stainless steel and CoCrMo alloys, and even outperforming Ti-6Al-4V. This prevents ion release caused by long-term implant corrosion, reducing the risk of adverse biological reactions.

The EM-500 series of biomedical entropy alloys has a yield strength greater than 600 MPa, which is stronger than 316L stainless steel, CoCrMo cobalt-based alloy and Ti-6Al-4V titanium alloy.

The biomedical entropy alloy EM-500 series can be used in artificial joints and various implants.
