Wear-accelerated corrosion rates at constant anodic potentials were evaluated for unimplanted and nitrogen-ion-implanted surgical Ti-6A1-4V while wearing against ultrahigh-molecular-weight polyethylene at stress levels up to 6.90 MPa (1000 psi). The ion implantation processing was found to reduce th

## Abstract Nitrogen‐ion‐implanted Ti‐6Al‐4V against UHMW polythylene was tested on a joint simulator to evaluate the wear behavior under different conditions. It was concluded that the polymer wear rate was not affected by ion implantation. The metallic wear, on the other hand, was substantially r
## Abstract Si‐incorporated diamond‐like carbon (Si‐DLC) coatings ranging from 0 to 2 at % Si were deposited on Ti‐alloy substrate by means of radio frequency plasma‐assisted chemical vapor deposition (r.f. PACVD) technique, using a mixture of benzene (C~6~H~6~) and silane (SiH~4~) as the reaction
