Abstract:A MWCNT-induced hydroxyapatite, air plasma spray coatings were produced on SS-316 L, CoCrMo, and Ti6Al4V alloys at varied weight percent ratios. The shape, thickness, adhesion, structure, and content of the APS-treated samples, as well as particle distribution, were studied using an X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscope, Fourier transform infrared, and 3D-profilometer. The study looks at dry and wet unidirectional sliding wear behaviors, as well as the influence of incorporating carbon nanotubes in d… Show more
