## Abstract The effects of radiation sterilization on ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene were explored by freeze fractures, electron spin resonance, absorption of aqueous media, density measurements, smallβangle and wideβangle xβray scatter, differential scanning calorimetry, infrared and ultr
## Abstract The wear rate of ultrahigh molecular weight (UHMW) polyethylene over a long campaign of sliding distance is not constant. Both unfilled and graphite filled polyethylene show a high rate early, which reduces to a low value. The graphiteβfilled product shows a late stage increase in wear
Ultrahigh or high molecular weights of polyethylenes (PE) and their distributions are for the first time determined at 160" or 170Β°C by gel permeation chromatography (GPC). The thermostability of PE at high temperatures is discussed. In order to calculate the real molecular weight of PE, a new calib
