Abstract :

 The analysis of nanomechanical properties of the materials for biological applications has become an increasingly useful tool on investigation of these materials.Although the biocompatibility of Tihas been confirmed, it is difficult to meet all the requirements, such as antibacterial ability, osseointegration and mechanical properties. Titanium alloys have a high friction coefficient while interacting with bone or tissue, which can cause wear deis 

pain and loosening of implants.This situation could be avoided using alloy surface modification by a durable, mechanically stable, wear resistant (TiAlV)N coating with a low friction coefficient as a base for an overlaying nanostructured 
ТiOх. 
This article represents the research on the influence of the process of vacuum arc deposition of (TiAlV)N coatings and 
next vacuum oxidation on their mechanical properties and morphology. The microstructure, mechanical properties and 
applicability of the investigated (Ti,Al,V)N/TiOx coatings for biocompatible titanium implants are discussed.
