Micro X-Ray Computed Tomography Mass Loss Assessment of Different UHMWPE: A Hip Joint Simulator Study on Standard vs. Cross-Linked Polyethylene. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 More than 60.000 hip arthroplasty are performed every year in Italy. Although Ultra-High-Molecular-Weight-Polyethylene remains the most used material as acetabular cup, wear of this material induces over time in vivo a foreign-body response and ...

Polyamide 12 Filled with Cross-Linked Polyethylene Waste: Processing, Compatibilization, and Properties [PDF]
Materials Research, 2023 Cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) is primarily used as a coating and insulator for electrical wires and cables. The cross-links render recycling through remelting unfeasible, and XLPE waste is usually incinerated or sent to landfills.

Remaining lifespan prediction of cross‐linked polyethylene material based on GM(1, N) grey models
IET Generation, Transmission & Distribution, 2022 Cross‐linked polyethylene (XLPE) cables are a critical component of power transmission systems. As operating conditions sometimes exceed the thresholds set in discipline, some cables fail to reach their designed lifespan, and consequently evaluating the ...

Correlation Between Thermal Parameters and Morphology of Cross-Linked Polyethylene
IEEE Access, 2020 This paper reveals a correlation between morphology and thermal parameters on cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) cable with different insulating states. Several cables were selected to detect the physicochemical and thermal parameters of the XLPE.

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.
