Experimental research of the durability and wearing of UHMWPE with different coatings
Santrauka
In the paper UHMWPE coating with different materials is analysed. Such coatings are made using magnetron sputtering method. The friction tests of these coatings are accomplished. SPM surface morphology images of coatings are analysed before and after the friction test. It was determined that Co+TiO 2 coating altered the least after the friction tests. For this reason, its durability and wear resistance is the highest in comparison with all the analysed coatings.
