Abstract:The aim of this experimental work is to identify how the surfaces of materials that are most often used in medical implants and prostheses, affect the properties of the deposited amorphous carbon films. The DLC films were formed on the stainless steel, aluminium, polyetheretherketone (PEEK) and polycaprolactone (PCL) surfaces by PECVD method using C 2 H 2 gas plasma and their properties was compared with the films deposited on silicon. The differences of the films properties were determined by a null-ellipsome… Show more
