Total joint prostheses are often fixed in the bone using bone cement. The cement mantle, however, is prone to fatigue fracture that can lead to failure of the mantle, evolution of bone cement particles, and eventual loosening and failure of the prosthesis. A new material, self-reinforced composite p

## Abstract A novel process has been developed to manufacture poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) pultruded parts. The mechanical and dynamic mechanical properties, environmental effects, postformability of pultruded composites and properties of various fiber (glass, carbon and Kevlar 49 aramid fiber)
Aligned chemical vapor deposition (CVD)-grown graphite nanofibers (GNFs) were used as a conductive filler in a poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) system to investigate the effect of GNF content on the thermo-mechanical properties of GNFs/PMMA composites. In the result, an electrical percolation thresh
