Abstract: | The tribological (friction and wear) behaviour of different polymeric materials was evaluated for hip prostheses applications. First, three polymeric materials were tested with fixed conditions of contact stress and sliding velocity. In a second phase, the material which presented the best results was selected. Its frictional behaviour under dynamic conditions of contact stress and sliding velocity was evaluated. |
