Description

Cobalt Chrome alloys, in particular cast Co-Cr ASTM-F75, are often used as the material for medical implants due to a combination of material properties: high strength, stiffness, temperature endurance, and wear / corrosion resistance. We aim to demonstrate and discuss what characteristics make it such a desirable material in the production of metallic biomedical implants
