The wear rate in ceramic bearings retrieved from squeaking hips has been shown to be 2.9 mm 3 per year on the femoral heads and 3.4 mm 3 per year for the liner, which is significantly higher than the rates retrieved from silent hips (0.1 mm 3 and 0.04 mm 3 per year, respectively). 28 The rate of wear seen in ceramic components revised for ...
Although the hardness of Al 2 O 3 ceramic balls (16.2 GPa) is higher than that of Si 3 N 4 ceramic balls (14.7 GPa), the film wear volume of the DLC film/Al 2 O 3 ball group is lower than that of the DLC film/Si 3 N 4 ball group, because the interaction between metal oxide and carbon is weaker than that between Si 3 N 4 and carbon [37].

In addition, the wear rate is influenced by the surface roughness of coating surfaces. A higher wear rate at 6 × 10 −4 mm 3 N −1 m −1 is obtained for TiN coating when the surface roughness reached 169 nm . It has been revealed that a minimum wear occurs when an optimum surface roughness exists.
Results suggest that, for the three media shapes studied, kinetics fit zero order. This figure also illustrates the ball wear described by linear time dependence. …

1. Introduction. The kinetics of grinding media wear is estimated based on theories put forward shortly before the second half of the Twentieth Century, as is evidenced in the work of Sepúlveda [1], which uses the theory of linear wear to calculate specific rate constant wear.Other research approaches were found such as that of …
The initial surface of the ceramic ball and raceway was smooth, with roughness on the nanometre scale (Fig. 10 a). In contrast to the surface of the ceramic ball, the initial surface of the raceway had regular machining marks parallel to the rolling direction, where a thin machining metamorphic layer, that is, a nanocrystalline layer, was …
Technological progress in hybrid bearings developed high wear and abrasion resistant materials for rolling elements. The manufacturing process of bearing balls presents new challenges, as nowadays, it requires time-consuming and costly processes. In this frame, the bearing manufacturing industry is demanding improvements in materials, geometry, …
Two kinds of ceramic ball grinding media, 97 porcelain media and 75 porcelain media, were prepared. The mass wear rate of the two kinds of media was determined by …
This stress can exceed the strength of the ceramic and form a crack or delamination — the ceramic layers separate and with it, a significant loss in mechanical toughness. Bearings that have undergone thermal shock will have heavy ball wear paths and evidence of overheating, this includes discolouration of the rings, balls and cages.

Background and aim of the work. Ceramic-on-ceramic (CoC) bearing surfaces in total hip arthroplasty (THA) were developed with the purpose of reducing wear-induced osteolysis in young and active patients undergoing total hip replacement, thus theoretically decreasing the need for early aseptic loosening revision of the implant.
And the wear rate is reduced by 45% compared to rubbing in deionized water. This technique can reduce the shedding of grafted PMPC state and improve the load-bearing performance of the interfacial lubrication layer, thus reducing the wear of HXLPE and prolonging the service life of the artificial joint.
For SiC ceramics, Borrero-López et al. [30] reported that the wear rate of SiC ceramics was reduced with the decreased grain size of SiC from 2 μm to 0.8 μm, which is attributed to the ...
The friction and wear characteristics of a-C:H:Si and a-C:H coatings in an ethanol environment at 120 °C and 10 MPa focusing on the effects of water and dissolved oxygen in ethanol were investigated. The friction tests were conducted using an autoclave chamber, with gases (oxygen or nitrogen) and ethanol–water mixtures (0 and 6 vol.%). …
Comparable significant differences in wear rates were seen in the literature in both the short and long-term[8,16]. Conventional PE inlays have been improved by cross-linking to improve wear rates, but CoC bearings still show the lowest wear rates[17-19]. Therefore, long-term follow-up is required to assess whether differences in wear will ...

One of the most notable advantages of hybrid ceramic bearings is their ability to reduce friction significantly. The smooth surface of ceramic balls and their high hardness ensures minimal contact with the steel raceways. As a result, friction is reduced, leading to less heat generation and increased efficiency. (2) Enhanced Durability
Ceramic-ceramic implants have been demonstrated to provide the lowest wear rates in comparison to other material options possible for ceramic-on-ceramic THA [9,98,155]. Trends in material development are also strongly influenced by the desire to improve hip function and stability through the use of increased head diameters [ 97 ].
