Sterilization of medical devices by gamma (β₯)-examined. The results suggest that both irradiation and anirradiation is common. The effect of irradiation on a bone nealing increase creep resistance of the materials. These are replacement material, HAPEXβ’ (hydroxyapatite-reinforced associated with the
The mechanical properties of hydroxyapatite-polyethylene composites have been improved by increasing the interfacial bond between the hydroxyapatite reinforcing particles and the polyethylene. Two types of surface treatment have been investigated: both use silane coupling of the hydroxyapatite, eith
## Abstract Hydroxyapatiteβreinforced highβdensity polyethylene (HAβHDPE) composite, as a bone replacement material, has successfully been used clinically as middle ear prostheses and orbital floor implants. The aim of this study was to examine its __in vitro__ biocompatibility in order to develop
The research reported here is concerned with optimizing the combined use of two different fibre types in cementitious matrices. The two fibre types were a high-modulus polyethylene fibre and a fibrillated polyethylene pulp. The effects of different volume fractions of the two fibres and their intera
