Metallic implants are extensively used to treat a spectrum of orthopaedic related disorders. Among the metals, titanium and its alloys are considered most excellent and indispensable material for the production of orthopaedic implants regarding their sterling mechanical properties and exceptional biocompatibility. Recently, rapid progress in developing non-toxic titanium-based alloys with modulus similar to that of human bone has inspired researchers globally. Thus, many studies have focused on titanium alloys, their heat treatment processes and several processing technologies. Additive manufacturing has been designed to enhance their mechanical properties tailored towards biomedical applications. Inarguably, the need to further improve on the implant’s biocompatibility with bodily environment for optimum service life is of great importance. Hence, hydroxyapatite coating provides an improvement as demonstrated by in vitro as well as in vivo studies. The present article critically reviews, based on recent scientific literatures, the progress made thus far in the development of titanium-based alloys, additive manufacturing processes and their heat and surface treatments tailored towards biomedical applications.

“…The most practiced preclinical testing method to assess the wear performance of any newly developed hip implant material in laboratory comprises the use of several tribometer equipments namely pin-on-disc, disc-onball, ring-on-plate, reciprocating sliding motion devices, 3 station hip wear simulator, 8-station hip joint simulator, and 12-station hip wear simulator in the presence of synovial fluid lubricant which is capable of simulating the physiological loadings and movements [21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35]. All these equipments provide important information regarding performance and expected behaviour of a developed implant material.…”

Understanding the wear mechanisms of a material subjected to varying loading conditions in various applications is a key to improve the overall performance of the material. Ceramic based composites when implemented as a bearing material under adverse loading conditions, performed very well but despite this clinical success, wear of these articulating surfaces continues to be one of the leading critical issues which need attention as this will influence the ultimate performance of the implant. Before any material can be used in joint arthroplasty, it is imperative to assess parameters that influence the wear performance of implant material as safety and efficacy are the main challenges. This review focuses and brings forth important aspects related to the wear performance of the ceramic‐based nanocomposites employed in joint bearings. This review presents a summary of wear rate data associated to bioceramic composite on the basis of past to recent published literature.

“…There are many approaches to the improvement in mechanical stability (hardness, elastic modulus), tribological behavior (wear resistance), or adhesive (roughness of surface) properties of the polyethylene. The most popular ones are the reinforcement with carbon nanotubes [9], graphene [10], kaolin or zeolite fibers [11,12]; filling of silver [13], zirconium/titanium/hafnium [14], alumina nanoparticles [15], or surface modification by argon plasma [16], chemical etching, electrostatic spraying techniques [17,18], and ultraviolet grafting [19]. On the other hand, many studies are focused on altering physical and chemical properties of the UHMWPE to increase wear resistance, using gamma-irradiated cross-linking [20,21], which correlates with decreases in wear.…”

Hybrid Self-Reinforced Composite Materials Based on Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene

The properties of hybrid self-reinforced composite (SRC) materials based on ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) were studied. The hybrid materials consist of two parts: an isotropic UHMWPE layer and unidirectional SRC based on UHMWPE fibers. Hot compaction as an approach to obtaining composites allowed melting only the surface of each UHMWPE fiber. Thus, after cooling, the molten UHMWPE formed an SRC matrix and bound an isotropic UHMWPE layer and the SRC. The single-lap shear test, flexural test, and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analysis were carried out to determine the influence of hot compaction parameters on the properties of the SRC and the adhesion between the layers. The shear strength increased with increasing hot compaction temperature while the preserved fibers’ volume decreased, which was proved by the DSC analysis and a reduction in the flexural modulus of the SRC. The increase in hot compaction pressure resulted in a decrease in shear strength caused by lower remelting of the fibers’ surface. It was shown that the hot compaction approach allows combining UHMWPE products with different molecular, supramolecular, and structural features. Moreover, the adhesion and mechanical properties of the composites can be varied by the parameters of hot compaction.
