Surface modification of a Ti–6Al–4V alloy by thermal oxidation

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of thermal oxidation on the dry sliding wear resistance of a Ti-6Al-4V alloy has been examined, and it was shown that surface hardness increased from 450 to 1300 HV 0,01 upon oxidation at 600 °C for 60 h, accompanied by significant improvement in wear resistance.

Tribological properties of titanium alloys

TL;DR: In this paper, a study was conducted on the two most widely used titanium alloys, Grade 2 commercially pure titanium and the age-hardenable Ti6Al4V. Dry sand-rubber wheel tests were conducted to assess abrasion resistance; fretting, galling and reciprocating pin-on-plane tests are conducted to determine if there is a “best” counterface for these two Titanium alloys.

Characteristics of metal and ceramic total hip bearing surfaces and their effect on long-term ultra high molecular weight polyethylene wear.

TL;DR: By analyzing metal release rates from metal-polyethylene wear tests, it is shown here that Co-Cr-Mo is gradually removed at a rate of about 0.1 micron per year (10(6) cycles), whereas 316L stainless steel is removed on the order of 0.2 microns per year and Ti-6Al-4V on the orders of 1 micronper year.
