## Abstract We performed surface modification of ultraβhighβmolecularβweight polyethylene (UHMWPE) through chromic acid etching with the aim of improving the performance of UHMWPE's composites with poly(ethylene terephthalate) fibers. In part I of this study, we evaluated the effects of chemical mo

## Abstract We applied a Raman confocal spectroscopic technique to quantitatively assess the structural features of two kinds of acetabular cups made of ultraβhigh molecular weight polyethylene. We wanted to know whether polyethylene cups belonging to different generations, and thus manufactured by
## Abstract Ultraβhigh molecular weight polyethylene components for total joint replacement chemically degrade before and after implantation, and the degradation is associated with an increase in density. The goal of this study was to determine the average rate of density change in these components
## Abstract This study was undertaken to investigate the effect of crosslinking ultraβhigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) in a sequential manner to the final desired dose and to compare the results to singleβdose crosslinking. To verify these results, an explanted, commercially available, s
