Highly cross-linked polyethylene still outperforms conventional polyethylene in THA: 10-year RSA results [PDF]
Acta Orthopaedica, 2021 Background and purpose — Cup wear in total hip arthroplasty (THA) can be affected by different manufacturing processes of the polyethylene (PE). We report the long-term wear pattern differences, as well as early creep behavior, between conventional PE ...

Early failure of a modern moderately cross-linked polyethylene acetabular liner [PDF]
Arthroplasty Today, 2020 Modern polyethylene components for total hip arthroplasty have shown excellent long-term wear properties. However, among 204 primary total hip arthroplasty procedures performed by one surgeon using the Exactech Connexion GXL Liner, we identified 5 cases ...

Circular Cross-Linked Polyethylene Enabled by In-Chain Ketones. [PDF]
ACS Macro LettCross-linked polyethylenes (PEs) are widely employed, but the permanent links between the chains impede recycling. We show that via imine formation with diamines keto-functionalized polyethylenes from both free-radical (keto-low-density PE, keto-LDPE) and catalytic (keto-high-density PE, keto-HDPE) nonalternating ethylene-CO copolymerization can be ...

Early failure for wear after ceramic-on-highly cross-linked polyethylene total hip arthroplasty: a case report [PDF]
BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2020 Background Highly cross-linked polyethylene (HXLPE) enhances the anti-wear characteristics of the conventional polyethylene (PE). Early failure for wear after ceramic-on-highly cross-linked polyethylene (CoHXLPE) total hip arthroplasty (THA) is extremely
