Diamond-like carbon coatings in biotribological applications

Abstract: This paper presents results of the structure analysis and tribological testing of a-C:H type diamond-like carbon (DLC) coatings deposited by Plasma Assisted Chemical Vapour Deposition (PACVD) on CoCrMo specimens. The DLC coatings were selected because of their good biocompatibility and high resistance to corrosion and wear. The surface structure and elemental composition were determined using scanning and transmission electron microscopy. The tribological tests of a cobalt-based alloy disk, or alternatively, a… Show more

“…The A-C:H coatings occurring in this category are obtained from the chemical vapor deposition technique (CVD). The DLC coatings are used in the electronics industry as protective layers of magnetic hard disk drives, CD and DVD matrices, in the automotive industry as engine components coatings, in medicine for parts having contact with blood and orthopedic implants [6].…”

“…Diamond-like carbon (DLC), known as amorphous carbon, is a class of materials with excellent mechanical, tribological and biological properties, which makes them particularly attractive for biomedical applications. DLC coatings, deposited on the metal substrate, can be used as a barrier to prevent leaching of metallic ions into the body and improve the wear resistance and corrosion resistance of artificial joints [5][6][7][8][9]. Therefore, DLC surface modification for traditional artificial joints has attracted more researchers' interesting in the field of biomedical materials.…”
