Three-dimensional thermal expansion of neat and irradiated (U)HMWPE materials at elevated temperatures

The thermal expansion of polymeric parts can be an issue in many applications where the available space is limited, or exact dimensions of the part are required. For this study, a device was designed and built that allowed measuring the thermal expansion simultaneously in all three spatial direction...
