Abstract
Abstract This study is concern with tribocorrosion behaviour of Ti6Al4V-HA biocomposites. The Ti6Al4V composites reinforced with different contents of hydroxyapatite (HA) particles 5-15%, vol%) were produced by hot pressing technique. The tribocorrosion tests were performed by using a ball-on-plate configuration in artificial saliva at 37
