There is one negative element that should be emphasized which is that titanium alloys have poor friction properties in that it is not possible to use them as prosthetic femoral heads or in the axis of a hinged prosthesis. Current trials, aiming to improve the friction characteristics by laying down deposits of titanium nitride or carbide, have not been very successful because these deposits are irregular and thin so that the layers abrade after a few thousand cycles. Hydrogen or nitrogen ion inclusion techniques are still at the experimental stage.
The presence of fibronectin does not appear to influence pore size or gelation rate, although it decreases fibril diameter [29]. Factor XIII has no affect either on gel porosity or on other geometrical attributes [30]. Mechanical and Adhesive Characteristics Since fibrin sealants are used not only as tissue adhesives but also as physical barriers and fillers, both their material mechanics and gluing properties must be considered. Shear loading of fibrin gels has been extensively studied under a broad range of conditions.
