## Abstract The composition of acrylic bone cement has been identified as one of the important parameters affecting its mechanical properties and may, in turn, ultimately influence the longevity of a cemented arthroplasty. Our aim in this study was to determine the influence of change of one compos
## Abstract An investigation was conducted to determine the general physical characteristics of selfβcuring acrylic resin systems in terms of their potential utilization in total hip arthroplasty. Exothermic temperature, working and setting times were monitored with thermocouples placed in acrylic
The deformation and fracture behaviour of some commercial acrylic bone cements have been investigated. Cements were characterized by gel permeation chromatography, dynamic mechanical analysis and scanning electron microscopy. The inΓuence of liquid to powder ratio, curing temperature, strain rate an
