DOI: 10.1021/acsami.2c05549
Abstract: Previously, the orientation structure of ultrahigh-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) for artificial joints was considered to be unchanged after irradiation crosslinking. Therefore, much of the research related to the long-term failure of artificial joints has focused on… read more here.
