Toward long-live ceramic on ceramic hip joints: In vitro investigation of squeaking of coated hip joint with layer-by-layer reinforced PVA coatings
This study attempts to find a promising solution for the squeaking of ceramic on ceramic (COC) bearing surfaces by introducing reinforced poly(vinylalcohol) (PVA) layer-by-layer coatings on the bearing surface of Stryker Trident femoral head. A customized hip simulator was established to provide a r...
