Tribocorrosion Study of Ordinary and Laser-Melted Ti6Al4V Alloy

Tribocorrosion Study of Ordinary and Laser-Melted Ti6Al4V Alloy

Titanium alloys are used in biomedical implants, as well as in other applications, due to the excellent combination of corrosion resistance and mechanical properties. However, the tribocorrosion resistance of titanium alloy is normally not satisfactory. Therefore, surface modification is a way to im...
