Non-stick syringe needles: Beneficial effects of thin film metallic glass coating

This paper reports on the use of Zr-based (Zr(53)Cu(33)Al(9)Ta(5)) thin film metallic glass (TFMG) for the coating of syringe needles and compares the results with those obtained using titanium nitride and pure titanium coatings. TFMG coatings were shown to reduce insertion forces by ∼66% and retrac...
