摘要

Ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) is used as a bearing surface of joint prostheses and has been reported to absorb lipids such as squalene (SQ) and cholesterol esters in vivo. These lipids have been suggested by in vitro studies using SQ as a model lipid to have the potential to induce polymer degradation. However, the impact of lipid-induced degradation on the strength and wear resistance of UHMWPE is unknown. In this study, lipid-induced degradation was simulated by SQ absorption and subsequent accelerated aging, and its influence on the strength and wear resistance of UHMWPE was investigated using wear, fatigue crack growth, and delamination testing. Lipid-induced degradation was found to have little impact on fatigue crack growth rates and delamination resistance. These results were consistent with previous reports that lipid-induced degradation is localized near the surface. However, we also found that lipid-induced degradation increased the wear rate of both non-crosslinked and crosslinked UHMWPE by a factor of 2.5 and 14, respectively. These results indicate that lipid-induced degradation may affect the durability and long-term clinical outcome of joint replacements due to increased wear of UHMWPE.
