This so-called concentric-ring-test exhibits several advantages: It is more sensitive and critical and distinguishes better between different surface treatments. This is demonstrated by measurements on two commercially available bioceramics.enAluminiumoxidkeramikBiokeramikbiomaterialFestigkeitFestigkeitsprüfungNormungPrüfmethode531620Strength characterization of alumina bioceramics according to the new ISO draftconference paper
