Cobalt-Base Alloys for Biomedical Applications
Editor(s): John A. Disegi, Richard L. Kennedy, Robert Pilliar
STP 1365 is a unique publication that focuses on the use of cobalt-base alloys in orthopaedic applications. It features 18 peer-reviewed papers written by world renowned biomedical experts, that focus on new materials research, advanced process developments, accelerated wear studies, and clinical information related to the use of Co-26Cr-6Mo for surgical implant applications.
STP 1365 covers the latest information to emerge in recent years on topics such as:
• Alloy Design
• Processing Variables
• Corrosion/Fretting Resistance
• Abrasion and Wear Characterization
• Implant Surface Modification
• Biological Response
• Clinical Performance.
This volume is a comprehensive resource for orthopaedic surgeons, biomedical researchers and engineers, product design engineers, quality control engineers, product metallurgists and managers, implant device manufacturers, and academics.
