The purpose of the present study was to evaluate whether anteversion or change in implantation angle of the acetabular component influences polyethylene linear wear by using standing and supine radiographs of the hip joint. Methods: Standing and supine plain anteroposterior radiographs of 62 hip joints in which cementless total hip arthroplasty was performed were examined for polyethylene linear wear rate (mm/year), pelvic inclination, and radiological inclination and anatomic anteversion of the acetabular component. Results: All correlation coefficients of measurements of polyethylene linear wear, pelvic inclination angle, anatomical anteversion angle and radiological inclination angle were calculated highly. And by the three-dimensional numerical analysis, anatomic anteversion of the acetabular component had at least some effect on the degree of polyethylene wear. Conclusion: This study suggests that increased anteversion of the acetabular component reduces polyethylene linear wear in metal-on-polyethylene total hiparthroplasty.展开更多
Nano-sized TiO2 doped La^3＋ , was used as photocatalysis to degrade polyethylene （PE） film in solid-state reaction.

It made PE lose its mass fraction of 14.5%, and formed more quantities of CO2 and more wax yields after UV irradiation for 288 h. SEM imagines displayed more and bigger holes and pits in the PE film. FT-IR spectra showed that there is a lower absorbance of groups of - CH2 and - CH3 in PE/ TiO2 and 0. 1% La2O3/TiO2/PE composite materials than that in PE film sample of photodegradation, and more carbonyl groups in PE/0.1% LaEO3/TiO2. La^3＋ doping TiO2 improves TiO2 activities of oxidation and erosion of PE film under UV irradiation.展开更多

The acoustic impedance and sound velocity in this kind of material are near to the materials commonly used in ultrasonic wedges. Also this kind of materials are highly attenuative materials for ultrasound. To inspection of polyethylene circumferential but welds and overcome to all the problems mentioned, the especial technique of TOFD （Time of Flight Diffraction） method which employs low frequency probe and concentrate on the inspection area that longitudinal waves turn into transverse waves has been used. The purpose of inspection is determining the exact location of surface and internal welding defects. For this purpose, two separate polyethylene pipes with 10 inch in diameter, 15 mm thickness and also 25 inch diameter, 28 mm thickness, were selected. In total 40 artificial defects which involve 28 side drill holes in deferent depths and 12 surface and sub-surface notches were created. All artificially created defects were detected with very good accuracy. Unlike the conventional TOFD method which have 2 to 3 mm dead zone, by using the above method even surface notch with 0.5 mm has been detected.展开更多
