Abstract
The present work aims to study TiN films deposited on AISI 316L stainless steel substrates by physical vapor deposition through the Magnetron Sputtering technique with CD, heating it at a temperature of 200º and a constant time of 30 min. Identifying the mechanical properties to be used in biomedical applications, the microstructural characterization was performed by Optical Microscopy (OM) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). Adhesion tests were performed under the VDI 3198 standard. Tribological wear tests were performed using a 6 mm chromium plated steel pin (AISI 52100) on coated and uncoated substrates to study and compare the sliding effect continuing the same circumferential geometry, with a stroke length of 200 m and a load of 5N in wet and dry way using milli-Q water to simulate biological fluids in order to test the performance and durability of the implant.
