A low friction coefficient and high bearing capacity can improve the service life of implants in the human body. In this study, we firstly investigate the mechanical properties of inorganic thermal oxide coatings on titanium alloy (Ti6Al4V). Tribological experiments were performed for different tribo-pairs under uniform conditions. The inorganic thermal oxide coating on Ti6Al4V formed at 300℃ was found to have excellent tribological properties and can effectively improve the bearing capacity of Ti6Al4V. The organic poly (vinylphosphonic acid) (PVPA) on Ti6Al4V has excellent anti-friction properties, which can help achieve superlubricity. An inorganic thermal oxide/organic PVPA composite coating was fabricated on Ti6Al4V to obtain a surface with low friction and high bearing capacity. It is found that the presence of the thermal oxide doubled the bearing capacity of the composite coating compared to that of the PVPA coating alone. This study can serve as a guide for the modification of artificial joints.
