## Abstract Fractures in the boneβcement mantle (polymethyl methacrylate) have been linked to the failure of cemented total joint prostheses. The heat generated by the curing bone cement has also been implicated in the necrosis of surrounding bone tissue, leading to loosening of the implants. The a

## spopsis The critical stress field intensity factor for crack propagation, Kr,, was determined for a large number of glass fiber-reinforced acetal copolymer compositions and for the unfilled resin. The results were interpreted in terms of B model previously proposed for the tensile behavior of th
The effect of anodic oxidation on high-strength polyacrylonitrilebased carbon fibers has been studied in terms of fiber surface energetics and fracture toughness of the composites. According to contact angle measurements based on the wicking rate of a test liquid, anodic oxidation leads to an increa
