Could Ti6Al4V be alternative as a bearing surface articulated with polymer in artificial cervical disc?
In order to study the feasibility for Ti6Al4V (TC4) used as a bearing surface in artificial cervical disc, the wear behaviors of polymer-on-Ti6Al4V pairs were assessed in vitro for 10 million cycles (MC) using a wear simulator. The material of polymer ball included conventional ultra-high molecular...
