Ion bombardment is a suitable tool to improve tribological properties of polymers. In this study UHMWPE samples were bombarded with 130 keV He ions to the fluences ranging from 1 β€’ 10 14 to 2 β€’ 10 16 cm Γ€2 . RBS and NRA techniques were applied to study compositional transformations induced by ion be

## Abstract Ultra‐high 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
