The extent of recrystallization of nascent UHMWPE powder is easily measured by calorimetry. Melting and recrystallization of nascent UHMWPE at 140ยฐC can be suppressed by compression molding. Crystals of UHMWPE prepared from dilute solution show a peak melting temperature of 140ยฐC and exhibit crystal
Three types of high-strength polyethylene (PE) fiber-reinforced composite sheets were made by compression molding at the vicinity of melting point of the fiber. Sheet I was molded from only PE fibers. Sheets II and III were prepared by the compression molding of PE fiber with conventional high-and l
## Abstract A novel material for hard tissue implants has been prepared. The ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) was grafted with collagen I, to improve its biocompatibility with soft tissue in case of its usage in bone engineering. Before collagen immobilization, commercial grade UHM
