Synergism between mechanical wear and corrosion on tribocorrosion of a titanium alloy in a Ringer solution

The tribocorrosion behavior of a biocompatible ASTM-F67Gr1 titanium alloy was evaluated. An experimental pin-on-flat reciprocating sliding tribo-electrochemical setup was built which allowed the investigation of tribocorrosion phenomena in an electrolyte of a Ringer solution. Tests were performed at...
