The ELID Grinding of CoCrMo Alloy Bioprosthesis and the Formation Mechanism of its Corrosion-Resistant Oxide Layer

Abstract:

CoCrMo alloy is widely used in the medical field to make Biomedical prosthesis,But it is difficult to process resulting in the high cost of Biomedical prosthesis, Find an efficient and low-cost processing method has become a problem to be solved. In this paper, CoCrMo alloy Biomedical prosthesis were fabricated by Electrolytic In-process Dressing grinding. We studied the ELID grinding performance, grinding force, surface quality and the formation mechanism of Corrosion-resistant oxide layer of CoCrMo alloy by using dynamometer, roughness tester, XRD and SEM. It is proposed that the ELID grinding method forms an oxide layer on the surface of the prosthesis, which increases the corrosion resistance and biocompatibility of the prosthesis so that it can be better adapt to the biological environment in vivo. It was further confirmed that the ELID grinding method is an effective method for manufacturing CoCrMo Alloy Bioprosthesis.
