Influence of Boron Additions and Heat Treatments on the Fatigue Resistance of CoCrMo Alloys

Cobalt-based alloys are widely used in the manufacture of joint prostheses. In this study, the effect of boron additions and heat treatment on the ASTM F75 was evaluated by rotating bending fatigue. The boron ranged from 0.06–1 wt %. The alloys were tested in as-cast and heat-treated condi...
