Tribology of biocomposites
Abstract
The development of orthopaedic implants in total joint replacements (TJR) includes the use and study of a variety of materials. Though a variety of natural and metallic biomaterials were employed, ultra-high-molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) has been amongst the most widely used material for the last 30 years for THR. Despite the recognized success and worldwide acceptance, it has the limitation of producing very fine particles, which causes an undesirable biological response. It is estimated that an approximately 10-20% of the hip and knee replacement surgeries are being revised every year for a variety of reasons. Thus, the methods to improve the characteristics of implants are the major focus of research. As the tribological characterization of the material plays an important role in the life of the component, an attempt has been made to overview the tribological properties of various materials that are currently being investigated as potential combinations for TJR implants.
