摘要

Ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) is the most commonly used bearing material used domestically in total-joint implants. This polymer finds use because of its high resistance to wear, its mechanical properties and its inertness as a bulk material in vivo. However, debris generated during wear of UHMWPE leads to the fundamental limiting factor in the devices, osteolysis. This immune system response to the polymer wear debris leads to gradual loss of periprosthetic bone leading to potential slippage of the implant or bone fractures [1]. The primary tactic of researchers to address this topic has been to reduce the wear rate of UHMWPE. This has been largely accomplished in recent years by irradiation crosslinking of the polymer [2-5]. Crosslinking can, however, negatively impact other mechanical properties that are important in orthopaedic devices, such as yield strength and impact toughness. Another approach to the problem of osteolysis, rather than strict reduction of the volume of wear debris, may be the use of bearing materials that produce wear debris that does not incite such an immune response.
