Influence of Phospholipid and Protein Constituents on Tribological Properties of Artificial Hydrogel Cartilage Material

In this study, the influence of phospholipid and protein constituents on friction and wear behavior of artificial hydrogel cartilage was investigated. A sliding pair of an ellipsoidal specimen of poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA) hydrogel and a flat specimen of PVA hydrogel was evaluated in simplified reci...
