Influence of surface microstructure on implant lubrication processes in contact
Matovič, Martin ; Odehnal, Lukáš (referee) ; Ranuša, Matúš (advisor)
This bachelor thesis deals with the lubrication of microstructured prostheses of the first metatarsophalangeal joint. The aim of the research is the service life of joint replacements by creating a microstructure on the surface of the material. The work focuses on the influence of microstructures on lubrication processes in contact and coefficient of friction. Fluorescence microscopy in combination with a reciprocating tribometer with the possibility of recording frictional and loaded forces was used to observe the contact area. The number and average particle size of albumin, which plays an important role in contact lubrication, were then examined to record the camera. The testing was performed on two material combinations, namely CoCrMo - Glass B270 (hard pair) and CoCrMo - PMMA (soft pair), which were only four different microstructures. Elsewhere, the influence of microstructures on lubrication processes in contact for hard and soft pairs is indicated, which can be used to design further measurements.
