Synthesis of high molecular weight polyethylene using FI catalyst
A FI Zr-based catalyst of bis[N-(3,5-dicumylsalicylidene)-2′,6′diisopropylanilinato]zirconium(IV) dichloride was prepared and used for polymerization of ethylene. The effects of reaction conditions on the polymerization were examined in detail. The increase in ethylene pressure and rise in polymerization temperature up to 35 oC were favorable for catalyst/MAO to raise the catalytic activity as...
متن کاملFixation of ultrahigh-molecular-weight polyethylene liners to metal-backed acetabular cups.
Locking mechanisms and metal-liner interface surfaces of six modular acetabular systems were evaluated to determine their effect on micromotion and backside wear of the polyethylene liner. Rotational and axial motion between the metal shell and polyethylene liner was measured in the Duraloc (DePuy, Warsaw, IN), Harris-Galante (Zimmer, Warsaw, IN), Impact (Biomet, Warsaw, IN), Lip Loc (Biomet), ...
متن کاملSurfactant Effects on Structure and Mechanical Properties of Ultrahigh-Molecular-Weight Polyethylene/Layered Silicate Composites.
In this study, the reinforcement of ultrahigh-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) with biotite was investigated. The biotite filler was mechanically activated with different dry surfactants to improve its compatibility with UHMWPE and decrease agglomeration among biotite particles. Alkyldimethylbenzylammonium chloride (ADBAC) and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) were selected as cationi...
متن کاملGraphene nanoplatelet-induced strengthening of ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene and biocompatibility in vitro.
Graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs) are added as reinforcement to ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) with an intended application for orthopedic implants. Electrostatic spraying is established as a potential fabrication method for synthesizing large-scale UHMWPE-GNP composite films. At a low concentration of 0.1 wt % GNP, the composite film shows highest improvement in fracture toughnes...
متن کاملNotch fatigue of ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) used in total joint replacements.
Ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) has remained the primary polymer used in hip, knee and shoulder replacements for over 50 years. Recent case studies have demonstrated that catastrophic fatigue fracture of the polymer can severely limit device lifetime and are often associated with stress concentration (notches) integrated into the design. This study evaluates the influence of no...
