Journal of Biomechanical Science and Engineering, 2006 Ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) is the popular material of choice for use as a bearing surface in total joint replacement (TJR). Despite an extremely low friction coefficient of UHMWPE to metals with liquid lubrication, however, wear and

Comparison of stabilization by Vitamin E and 2,6-di-tert-butylphenols during polyethylene radio-thermal-oxidation [PDF]
, 2014 This paper reports a compilation of data for PE+Vitamin E and 2,6-di-tert-butylphenols oxidation in radio-thermal ageing. Data unambiguously show that Vitamin E reacts with P° and POO° whereas 2,6-di-tert-butyl phenols only react with POO°.
