  1. 1. Functional properties of silicon nitride based materials for joint applications

    Författare :Luimar N. Corrêa Filho; Cecilia Persson; Julia Shelton; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Silicon nitride; Coatings; Wear; Joint replacements; HiPIMS; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot materialvetenskap; Engineering Science with specialization in Materials Science;

    Sammanfattning : Total hip and total knee replacements are generally successful procedures for patients suffering with pain due to bone fracture or diseases affecting the joints. However, the materials that are commonly used still have limitations. In particular, corrosion products and wear debris may give rise to negative body reactions. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Silicon nitride based coatings for biomedical implants

    Författare :Charlotte Skjöldebrand; Cecilia Persson; Håkan Engqvist; Julia Shelton; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; silicon nitride; ceramic coating; deposition; PVD; dissolution; biocompatibility;

    Sammanfattning : Silicon nitride-based coatings have been proposed as a means to reduce the release of metal ions and debris from metallic implants. This reduction in combination with the biocompatible debris from silicon nitride could result in a less adverse immune response. LÄS MER
