Alloys play an essential role in the medical sector. For example, thanks to their high yield strength, hardness and corrosion resistance, alloys are the bio-compatible material of choice for implants. Their superb magnetic behavior also lends them to shielding such electronic devices as microscopes and x-rays. And some syringe needles are manufactured using special re-melted stainless steels.
Our key products
IMPHY® SUPRA 50 is a FeNi soft magnetic alloy with saturation induction and high permeability. The high performance level and the chemical purity make this alloy particularly suitable for applications requiring high sensitivity and great accuracy….
PHYNOX is an austenitic alloy strengthened by cold work and capable of additional hardening by aging at a moderate temperature (around 500°C). In the fully hardened condition, its elastic modulus is around 210 000 MPa, with UTS levels up to 2500 M…

Applications
Implants
Not only do maraging steels comply with the high standards of surgical implants and even pacemakers, they also offer excellent corrosion resistance, high-yield strength and non-magnetic properties.
Shielding
The high permeability of magnetic alloys makes them an ideal material for shielding against low and middle frequency electromagnetic interference (EMI).
Microscopes
The high permeability of magnetic alloys makes them an ideal material for shielding microscopes from EMI and stabilizing their results.
Needles
Some syringe needles can be manufactured using a special re-melted stainless steel.
IMPHY® SUPRA 50 for ventilators
Aperam Alloys Imphy supports Healthcare against Covid-19.
Our grade IMPHY® SUPRA 50 is used for the motor providing Positive Expiratory Pressure, which creates pressure in the lungs and keeps airways from closing, while the pneumatic module creates inspiratory pressure.
