Effects of Lubricant Composition on Adsorption Behavior of Proteins on Rubbing Surface and Stability of Protein Boundary Film

Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) hydrogel is one of the candidate materials for artificial cartilage. In previous research, it was found that the structure of protein boundary film is important essence for wear reduction of PVA hydrogel, and the stability of protein boundary film changes with relative ratio...
