Enhancing Thermal and Mechanical Properties of UHMWPE/HA Composite as Tibial Tray

Enhancing Thermal and Mechanical Properties of UHMWPE/HA Composite as Tibial Tray

A bearing material in an artificial knee joint has to have good thermal and mechanical properties to prevent wear in order to be used as a tibial tray. Despite its well-known good properties, ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) still needs to be modified to enhance its physical strength...
