Polyethylene (PE) film was implanted with 1000-keV Ar / ions to a fluence of 5 1 10 14 ions/cm 2 under high vacuum conditions (2.5 1 10 06 torr) and the film surface was investigated by means of microhardness and microwear measurements, and FTIR/ATR, Raman, and XPS techniques. Ion implantation signi

Corona discharge treatment was conducted for ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) fiber. The functional groups and surface roughness of the polyethylene fiber surface were determined by an X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The interfacial shear str
Recently, ␥-irradiation of ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) to high doses such as 1 MGy was shown by Oonishi et al. to be very effective in improving the wear resistance of UHMWPE. The present work was undertaken to characterize the UHMWPE irradiated with ␥-rays and electron beams to
