Study of wear behaviour on Hybrid Polymer matrix Composite Materials Used as Orthopedic Implants
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Mechanical and Civil Engineering (IOSR-JMCE) - Year 2018, Vol 15, Issue 6
Abstract
This paper constitutes study of wear behaviour of hybrid polymer matrix composites, Prepared of LDPE as matrix and TiO2, CaCO3 and Al2O3 used as reinforcement material with TiO2 constant of 10% in all compositions, were as CaCO3 and Al2O3 will be of 8%,12% & 16% used for implant material. Due to their cost effectiveness, greater strength and ease of fabrication, polymer composites are noticeable candidate almost in all areas. However, when they are used in their original form, they possess very low wear resistance. Over the past centuries, there is lot of research works carried out in the medical field and materials science in development of biomaterials for implant applications. So, many different materials are used as implants for replacing of damaged parts. The samples were prepared according to ASTM standards by injection moulding machine with varying percentage of reinforcements in polymer matrix.
