Positron annihilation and ion beam analysis of ion-bombardment-induced hydrogen release and oxidation of ultra high molecular weight polyethylene
(
Elsevier
, 2007 , Article)
Ultra high molecular weight polyethylene was bombarded with He+ and Ar+ ions to fluences ranging from 1013 to 2×1016 ions/cm2. Rutherford backscattering and nuclear reaction analysis were applied to study mechanism of ...
The effect of gamma irradiation and shelf aging in air on the oxidation of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene
(
Elsevier
, 2006 , Article)
This study has investigated the effect of shelf aging, for up to one year in air, on the properties of gamma-irradiated ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE). A variety of techniques were used to characterize ...
