TRIBOLOGICAL TESTS OF SPINAL IMPLANTS AND EVALUATION OF THE SUPERFICIAL WEAR
Journal Title: Tribologia - Year 2012, Vol 244, Issue 4
Abstract
The article presents a simulator for testing spinal implants SBT-03 of our own design. Used to estimate the intensity of different types of intervertebral disc implants, the selection of optimal combinations of materials and methods for surface treatment of intervertebral disc implants. The tested implants made of stainless 316, CoCrMo alloy, titanium alloy Ti6Al4Vand polyethylene liner.

WPŁYW DITIOFOSFORANU CYNKU NA TARCIE I ZUŻYCIE CZĘŚCIOWO STABILIZOWANEGO TLENKU CYRKONU CZĘŚĆ I. WŁAŚCIWOŚCI TRIBOLOGICZNE DI-N-ALKILODITIOFOSFORANÓW CYNKU
Tribologiczne właściwości di-n-alkiloditiofosforanów (ZDTPs) w styku pary tarciowej jonowego – ZrO2 częściowo stabilizowanego Y2O3 [PSZ] były badane z użyciem tribometru kula-dysk w 25ºC. Stwierdzono, że ZDTPs znacząco z...
EVALUATION OF LUBRICATION EFFICIENCY BASED ON WEAR DURING VARIABLE LOADS AND SLIDING VELOCITIES
The results of the tribological studies on the lubrication efficiency of greases evaluated based on tribological tests performed at varying pressure p and rubbing speed v are presented. For the efficiency criterion, the...
TEM OBSERVATIONS OF THE WEAR OF Ti/TiN MULTILAYER COATINGS AFTER BALL-ON-DISC TEST
The wear mechanisms of single- layered TiN coatings as well as multilayered Ti/TiN coatings (Λ =250nm) were investigated with ball-on-disc test. The coatings were obtained by the hybrid pulsed laser deposition (PLD) tech...
CONNECTION BETWEEN STRUCTURAL CHANGES OF IRRIADIATED POLYETHER ETHER KETONE AND MECHANICAL PROPERTIES
The article presents the results of research on the impact of structural changes in polyether ether ketone (PEEK) on its mechanical properties. The polymer was exposed to gamma radiation at a dose of 50 and 150 kGy, and...
