Wallwork HT are innovators in coating technology for applications across industrial and medical sectors. In this proposed programme they have teamed up with University of Leeds, Institute of Functional Surfaces because of their expertise in Surface Engineering and Tribology. The team, with complementary skills will develop and assess a duplex coating treatment for Ti alloys that uses technology developed for landing gear in aerospace applications and translates it to the biomedical sector for tribological applications. There are many potential implantable devices either commercially available or in the development stage that could benefit from being able to use a surface engineered Ti alloy to ensure that the surface does not wear excessively.

Wallwork HT是工业和医疗领域涂层技术的创新者。在这项拟议的计划中，他们与利兹大学功能表面研究所合作，因为他们在表面工程和摩擦学方面的专业知识。具有互补技能的团队将开发和评估钛合金的双重涂层处理，该处理使用为航空航天应用中的起落架开发的技术，并将其转化为生物医学部门的摩擦学应用。有许多潜在的可植入装置，无论是商业上可用的还是处于开发阶段的，都可以受益于能够使用表面工程钛合金来确保表面不会过度磨损。
