Conventional polyethylene is not used much in total hip arthroplasty (THA); it has been supplanted by oxidation‐resistant cross‐linked polyethylene (≥50 kGy irradiation). However, studies persist that de‐emphasize or ignore cross‐linked polyethylene.

Experimental study on vibration transmissibility of Pre-loaded XPE and PE packaging cushioning material [PDF]
Most of the shipped products are sensitive against shock and vibration events during the distribution. Various cushioning materials are usually used to prevent the product damages. During the design process the protective packaging system is developed by

Electrical treeing behaviours in cross‐linked polyethylene cables after thermal ageing
Long‐term thermal ageing might have impacts on the physicochemical properties of cross‐linked polyethene (XLPE) cables, thereby influencing their electrical behaviours, such as electrical treeing initiation and growth.

Processing and rheological behavior of cross‐linked polyethylene containing disulfide bonds
Vitrimers are a new class of materials that consist of chemically cross‐linked networks that engage in thermoactivated associative exchange reactions. These exchange reactions can impart malleability, healing, and recyclability properties to thermosets ...

Massive Osteolysis in a Modern Total Knee Prosthesis
Case. An 82-year-old woman underwent right total knee replacement with a sequentially irradiated and annealed highly cross-linked polyethylene insert. At 9 years, she was found to have a massive femoral osteolysis with an impending fracture.

Early failure of sequentially annealed polyethylene in total knee arthroplasty
Improvements in the processing of polyethylene have led to a dramatic reduction in wear rates in total hip arthroplasty. This led to the adoption of modern highly cross-linked polyethylene in total knee arthroplasty (TKA).
