Abstract
The biotribological properties of natural swine joint cartilage under various load, velocity and lubrications were investigated by a pin-on-disk tribometer. The experimental results show that the friction coefficients and wear rates of the cartilage under various lubrications are difference, the lowest friction and the lowest wear was obtained under calf serum lubrication. Under the same experiment conditions, the friction coefficients of various position of the cartilage are difference and friction coefficient of top area of the swine joint cartilage was the lowest and the far away from the area, the high friction coefficient was obtained.
