RISTribological Properties and Microstructure Evolution of Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The friction and wear properties of unmodified ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) were investigated experimentally. Dinks of semicrystalline UHMWPE were slid against polished CoCrWNi ...
Tribological and Nanomechanical Properties of Unmodified and Crosslinked Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene for Total Joint Replacements
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Wear of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) continues to be a major obstacle limiting the longevity of total joint replacements. Efforts to solve the wear problem in UHMWPE have ...
Nanomechanical Properties of Polymers Determined From Nanoindentation Experiments
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The nanomechanical properties of various polymers were examined in light of nanoindentation experiments performed with a diamond tip of nominal radius of curvature of about 20 μm under conditions ...
