摘要

In order to examine the initiation mechanism of delamination in ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) knee components, a bi-directional sliding fatigue test was performed for three types of UHMWPE specimens: nonirradiated, gamma-irradiated (25 kGy) and gamma-irradiated (25 kGy) with 0.1 percent vitamin E added. Sliding surfaces of post-tested UHMWPE specimens were observed using an optical microscope and a scanning electron microscope. Also, surface roughness was measured at the sliding surfaces of UHMWPE specimens. Delamination was observed only in gamma-irradiated specimens. A networked structure of surface asperity that resembled grain boundary was observed prior to delamination in gamma-irradiated specimens. Surface roughness in the gamma-irradiated specimens, higher than in any other specimen, showed a rapid increase prior to delamination. Detailed observation using an optical microscope and a scanning electron microscope showed microscopic crack initiation along subsurface grain boundaries in gamma-irradiated specimens. These results suggest that subsurface crack initiation is a precursor of delamination and is accelerated by oxidative degradation due to gamma irradiation. Of the three types of specimens, UHMWPE with vitamin E added showed the lowest surface roughness values at all measuring points. The addition of vitamin F is effective in improving wear resistance and fatigue performance of UHMWPE.
