Carbon Friction Pair in Total Hip Replacement

Abstract

The article examines the advantages of a new pair of friction of the hip joint endoprosthesis made of pyrolytic carbon. The physico-mechanical and tribological characteristics of the material and their comparison with other materials used in the friction pair of hip joint endoprostheses are presented. Information is presented about the making of a material and its strength characteristics and the results of mathematical modeling of a friction pair. The results of a comparative research of the durability between a carbon pair of friction and a ceramic pair of friction.
