The Progress in Tribocorrosion Research (2010–21): Focused on the Orthopedics and Dental Implants

The Progress in Tribocorrosion Research (2010–21): Focused on the Orthopedics and Dental Implants Tribocorrosion is an integration of two areas—tribology and corrosion. It can be defined as the material degradation caused by the combined effect of corrosion and tribological process at the material interfaces. Significant development has occurred in the field of tribocorrosion over the past years. This development is due to its applications in various fields, such as aerospace, marine, biomedical, and space. Focusing on biomedical applications, tribocorrosion finds its applications in the implants used in cardiovascular, spine, orthopedics, trauma, and dental areas. It was reported that around 7.2 million Americans are living with joint implants. Implant surgery is a traumatic and expensive procedure. Tribocorrosion can affect the lifespan of the implants, thus leading to implant failure and a potential cause of revision surgery. Hence, it is essential to understand how tribocorrosion works, its interaction with the implants, and what procedures can be implemented to protect materials from tribocorrosion. This paper discusses how tribocorrosion research has evolved over the past 11 years (2010–2021). This is a comprehensive overview of tribocorrosion research in biomedical applications. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Journal of Bio- and Tribo-Corrosion Springer Journals

Abstract

Tribocorrosion is an integration of two areas—tribology and corrosion. It can be defined as the material degradation caused by the combined effect of corrosion and tribological process at the material interfaces. Significant development has occurred in the field of tribocorrosion over the past years. This development is due to its applications in various fields, such as aerospace, marine, biomedical, and space. Focusing on biomedical applications, tribocorrosion finds its applications in the implants used in cardiovascular, spine, orthopedics, trauma, and dental areas. It was reported that around 7.2 million Americans are living with joint implants. Implant surgery is a traumatic and expensive procedure. Tribocorrosion can affect the lifespan of the implants, thus leading to implant failure and a potential cause of revision surgery. Hence, it is essential to understand how tribocorrosion works, its interaction with the implants, and what procedures can be implemented to protect materials from tribocorrosion. This paper discusses how tribocorrosion research has evolved over the past 11 years (2010–2021). This is a comprehensive overview of tribocorrosion research in biomedical applications.
