Highly cross‐linked polyethylene is the new ‘gold standard’ bearing material for total hip arthroplasty

open access: yesBiosurface and Biotribology, 2021
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]

open access: yesFME Transactions, 2021
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

open access: yesHigh Voltage, 2023
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

open access: yesSPE Polymers, 2022
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 ...

Effect of the cross-linking agent on the cross-linking degree and electrical properties of cross-linked polyethylene

open access: yesMaterials Research Express, 2023
To study the effect of a cross-linking agent on the cross-linking degree and electrical properties of cross-linked polyethylene, different mass fractions of cross-linked polyethylene and their electrical properties were investigated.

Massive Osteolysis in a Modern Total Knee Prosthesis

open access: yesCase Reports in Orthopedics, 2021
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

open access: yesArthroplasty Today, 2020
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).

Wear, bone density, functional outcome and survival in vitamin E-incorporated polyethylene cups in reversed hybrid total hip arthroplasty: design of a randomized controlled trial

open access: yesBMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2012
Background Aseptic loosening of total hip arthroplasties is generally caused by periprosthetic bone resorption due to tissue reactions on polyethylene wear particles.
