Adsorption of organic matter on titanium surfaces with nano- and micro-scale roughness studied with the electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance dissipation technique

Adsorption of calf serum organic matter from a phosphate-buffered solution was studied using the electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance with additional dissipation measurements. Two types of crystal surfaces were used: one rough with micrometer-range ...

Modeling Current Transients in a Reciprocal Motion Tribocorrosion Experiment

Stefano Mischler, Anna Neus Igual Muñoz, Shoufan Cao

Tribocorrosion of passivating metals is a dynamic phenomenon causing degradation of materials by a combination of mechanical wear and electrochemical dissolution. The mechanical action typically produces a local removal of particles, metal as well as oxide ...

Tribological properties of gold matrix composite coatings with carbon nanocapsules containing ionic liquid lubricants

Stefano Mischler, Anna Neus Igual Muñoz

Self-lubricating, gold matrix composite coatings were produced by electrochemical codeposition of carbon nanocapsules filled with ionic liquid (IL) from a colloidal galvanic bath on a nickel electrode. The tribological response of the composite coatings wa ...

Tribological behaviour of galvanic gold coatings reinforced with silica nanoparticles

Stefano Mischler, Anna Neus Igual Muñoz

Electroplated composite Au/SiO2 coatings on a nickel substrate have been produced by dispersing an emulsion of silica nanoparticles (20 nm in diameter) in an industrial hard-gold bath. The tribological behaviour of the Au/SiO2 coatings with different SiO2 ...

Tribocorrosion behaviour of pure titanium in bovine serum albumin solution: A multiscale study

Anna Neus Igual Muñoz

Tribocorrosion behaviour of pure titanium in phosphate buffer saline (PBS) solution has been investigated systematically as a function of surface chemistry and bovine serum albumin (BSA) content in the solution. A ball-on-disk tribometer coupled with an el ...

An Overview of Serum Albumin Interactions with Biomedical Alloys

Stefano Mischler, Anna Neus Igual Muñoz, Oksana Klok

Understanding the interactions between biomedical alloys and body fluids is of importance for the successful and safe performance of implanted devices. Albumin, as the first protein that comes in contact with an implant surface, can determine the biocompat ...

Tribological and tribocorrosion behavior of nickel sliding against oxide ceramics

Stefano Mischler, Anna Neus Igual Muñoz, Shoufan Cao, Junxiao Du

Nickel is widely used as a coating material in electroplating because of its good corrosion and wear resistance even at high temperature. Tribocorrosion has been identified as one of the main degradation mechanisms of nickel. This study evaluated the tribo ...

Effect of the electrochemical characteristics of titanium on the adsorption kinetics of albumin

Anna Neus Igual Muñoz

An electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance (EQCM) was used to examine the electrochemical behaviour of pure titanium in phosphate buffered saline (PBS) and PBS-containing bovine serum albumin (BSA) solutions, and the associated adsorption characteristi ...

Chemo-mechanical effects on the tribocorrosion behavior of titanium/ceramic dental implant pairs in artificial saliva

Anna Neus Igual Muñoz, Alejandro Roda Buch

In this paper, the degradation mechanisms of the ceramic and the metal in Titanium/Zirconia pairs for biomedical applications were analyzed. To do that, an experimental set-up with well-controlled mechanical and chemical conditions was used based on a unid ...
