Surface modification by ion implantation of 304 stainless steel, orthopedic implants

Description

In order to improve the wear and corrosion resistance as well as the hardness of 304 stainless steel (S S) from mechanical use, surface treatment derived from those applied in mechanical engineering industries were investigated. Surface characterization according to the different ion implantation showed that corrosion and wear resistances were strongly improved. In same way,microhardness was significantly increased after ion implantation
