AbstractThe wear behavior of to bioactive composites such as, hydroxyapatite reinforced polyethylene (HA/HDPE) and hydroxyapatite reinforced polysulfone (HA/PSU) were analyzed using Ti-6Al-4Vcounterface under dry and lubricated conditions and in the presence of proteins. Abrasive and adhesive wear modes were observed to be the main wear mechanism for HA/HDPE sliding against Ti-6Al-4V. Wear associated in PSU was found to be abrasive wear. It was found that HDPE has higher wear resistance than PSU due to its ductility and hence the ability to deform more easily. It was concluded that incorporation of HA up to 10% improves tribological properties of HA/HDPE.
