“…The wear mapping reduction trend for XLPE couples was caused by the increased strength of the polymeric chains produced by cross-linked with gamma irradiation. 47 In the present study, the authors propose the use of XLPE as a friction pair in temporary total hip spacers. However, further studies can expand the effect of longterm tribological behavior of a self-mated XLPE friction pair.…”

“…Ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene, or UHMWPE, was preferred to adopt as a host matrix due to its excellent response to any filler content. Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were recommended as fillers in UHMWPE matrices [ 15 , 16 ]. UHMWPE/MWCNT nanocomposites with loading amounts of 0.5 and 1 wt.% were evaluated for wear resistance.…”

“…To modify the behavior of the UHMWPE, various fillers, such as particles, platelets, or fibers, have been incorporated. One promising filler for the UHMWPE matrix is multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) [15,16].…”
