Reliability assessment in advanced nanocomposite materials for orthopaedic applications
Jérôme Chevalier, Paola Taddei, Laurent Gremillard +8
Alumina-zirconia nano-composites were recently developed as alternative bearing materials for orthopedics. Previous, preliminary reports show that such alumina-zirconia nanocomposi…
Accelerated Aging in 3 mol%-Yttria-Stabilized Tetragonal Zirconia Ceramics Sintered in Reducing Conditions
José Bartolomé, Isabel Montero, Marcos Diaz +6
The aging behavior of 3-mol%-yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia (3Y-TZP) ceramics sintered in air and in reducing conditions was investigated at 140°C in water vapor. It was obs…
Influence of surface finish and residual stresses on the ageing sensitivity of biomedical grade zirconia
Sylvain Deville, Jérôme Chevalier, Laurent Gremillard
We demonstrate in this paper the influence of surface finish on the ageing kinetics of biomedical grade zirconia. The critical influence of polishing has been systematically invest…
