Abstract
Hoechst RCH 1000 and Hercules Hi-Fax 1900 ultra-high molecular weight (UHMW) polyethylenes have been compared, for the first time, in tests, including wear, fatigue and creep, relevant to artificial human joints. In none of the tests was the behaviour of the Hercules material inferior to that of RCH 1000, and in the wear and creep tests it was superior.Entities:
