Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A thin film metallic glass coated needle includes a needle body, a needle head and a thin film metallic glass in amorphous structure and formed on a surface of the needle head and a surface of the needle body to reduce a surface energy and coefficient of friction. The thin film metallic glass is a titanium based comprising 35-45 at % titanium, 5-15 at % zirconium, 32-42 at % copper, 1-11 at % niobium and 2-12 at % cobalt.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A medical injection needle coated with a thin film metallic glass, comprising: a needle body; a needle head; and a thin film metallic glass being of amorphous structure and formed on a surface of the needle head and a surface of the needle body, wherein the thin film metallic glass is a titanium-based thin film metallic glass comprising 35-45 at. % titanium, 5-15 at. % zirconium, 32-42 at. % copper, 1-11 at. % niobium and 2-12 at. % cobalt, wherein the thin film metallic glass has a surface energy of 26.9 mN/m and coefficient of friction of 0.07. 2. The medical injection needle coated with thin film metallic glass of claim 1 , wherein the needle body has a tube, and a surface of the tube is coated with the thin film metallic glass. 3. The medical injection needle coated with thin film metallic glass of claim 2 , wherein a material of the needle body is selected from a system consisting of titanium, titanium alloy, aluminium, aluminium alloy, copper, copper alloy, iron, iron alloy, gold, gold alloy and steel. 4. The medical injection needle coated with thin film metallic glass of claim 1 , wherein the thin film metallic glass has a chemical formula of Ti 40 Zr 10 Cu 37 Nb 7 Co 7 . 5. The medical injection needle coated with thin film metallic glass of claim 4 , wherein the thin film metallic glass has a hardness larger than 700 HV. 6. The medical injection needle coated with thin film metallic glass of claim 4 , wherein the thin metallic glass film has a thickness ranging from 50 nm to 200 nm.
