Abstract (Spanish)
Durante su vida útil, las interfaces modulares experimentan fenómenos tribológicos y de corrosión que conducen al deterioro, lo que a su vez puede provocar un procedimiento de revisión para retirar la prótesis fallida. Para lograr una comprensión más clara del rendimiento de la superficie de esas aleaciones biomédicas y el papel de las propiedades de la superficie en el rendimiento mecánico y químico, se tomaron muestras de implantes de recuperación hechos de aleaciones Ti6Al4V y Co28Cr6Mo. Se realizaron pruebas de resistencia a la polarización y de pin-on-disk en estas muestras. Se determinaron propiedades físicas como el ángulo de contacto, la rugosidad, la microdureza y el módulo de Young. Se observó una correlación entre la energía superficial y la evolución del contacto tribológico para ambas aleaciones biomédicas. En las pruebas de tribocorrosión, las partículas de titanio parecen permanecer en la superficie, a diferencia de lo que se observa en las aleaciones de CoCr. Estas partículas metálicas u oxidadas podrían causar necrosis o reacciones tisulares adversas.
Abstract (English)
During their service life, modular interfaces experience tribological, and corrosion phenomena that lead to deterioration, which in turn can cause a revision procedure to remove the failed prosthesis. To achieve a clearer understanding of the surface performance of those biomedical alloys and the role of the surface properties in the mechanical and chemical performance, samples were taken from retrieval implants made of Ti6Al4V and Co28Cr6Mo alloys. Polarization resistance and pin-on-disk tests were performed on these samples. Physical properties such as contact angle, roughness, microhardness, and Young’s modulus were determined. A correlation between surface energy and evolution of the tribological contact was observed for both biomedical alloys. In tribocorrosion tests, titanium particles seem to remain in the surface, unlike what is observed in CoCr alloys. These metallic or oxidized particles could cause necrosis or adverse tissue reactions.
