In situ measurements of thin films in bovine serum lubricated contacts using optical interferometry

Original language description

The aim of this study is to consider the relevance of in situ measurements of bovine serum film thickness in the optical test device that could be related to the function of the artificial hip joint. It is mainly focussed on the effect of the hydrophobicity or hydrophilicity of the transparent surface and the effect of its geometry. Film thickness measurements were performed using ball-on-disc and lens-on-disc configurations of optical test device as a function of time. Chromatic interferograms were recorded with a high-speed complementary metal-oxide semiconductor digital camera and evaluated with thin film colorimetric interferometry. It was clarified that a chromium layer covering the glass disc has a hydrophobic behaviour which supports the adsorption of proteins contained in the bovine serum solution, thereby a thicker lubricating film is formed. On the contrary, the protein film formation was not observed when the disc was covered with a silica layer having a hydrophilic behaviou
