Electrophoretic deposition of polyetheretherketone/polytetrafluoroethylene on 316L SS with improved tribological and corrosion properties for biomedical applications

Introduction316L stainless steel (316L SS) has poor wear and corrosion resistance compared to that of the Cp-Ti and Ti-6Al-4V implants [when studied under a physiological environment using phosphate-buffered saline (PBS)]. However, 316L SS implants are cost-effective. Their wear and corrosion proper...
