## Abstract Monotonic tensile tests and tensionβcompression fatigue tests were conducted of wet acrylic bone cement specimens at 37Β°C. All testing was conducted in strain control at a strain rate of 0.02/s. Weibull analysis of the tensile tests indicated that monotonic fracture was governed more st

## Abstract The vital first phase of the overall materials study to protract the life of total joint replacements is the identification of the fracture toughness and fatigue properties of bone cements. Information gained from fatigue testing, performed in a manner which simulates __in vivo__ condit
The influence of the storage temperature of the cement constituents prior to mixing (21 vs. 4 degrees C) and the mixing method (hand mixing vs. vacuum mixing) on the uniaxial tension-compression fatigue performance and porosity of Palacos R acrylic bone cement was studied. The fatigue results were a
