ASTM F2129 Test to Determine Corrosion Susceptibility of Small Implant Devices

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of ASTM F2129 testing. This standard evaluates the corrosion susceptibility of small, metallic, implanted medical devices or their components using cyclic potentiodynamic polarization.

ASTM F2129 Test to Determine Corrosion Susceptibility of Small Implant Devices

Examples of device types that may be evaluated with this test method include, but are not limited to, vascular stents, ureteral stents, filters, support segments of endovascular grafts, heart occluders, aneurysm or ligation clips, staples, and the like. Further.

This test method is used to evaluate a device in its final state and finish as it will be implanted. These small devices should be thoroughly tested. The upper limit on device size is determined by the tester's ability to deliver electrical current. It is assumed that test methods such as Reference Test Method G5 and Test Method G61 are used for material screening.

Due to the variety of configurations and sizes of implants, this test method provides a variety of specimen holder configurations.

This test method is designed for use in implantable devices made of metals with relatively high corrosion resistance.

Values ​​stated in SI units should be accepted as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.

This standard does not purport to address all, if any, safety concerns associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health and environmental practices and to determine the applicability of regulatory restrictions prior to use.
