26、 of UHMWPEfabricated from the virgin polymer powder with or withoutadditives or prior irradiation and used during the process offabricating surgical implants before packaging and steriliza-tion.3.2.1.1 DiscussionThis form results from the applicationof heat and pressure to the virgin polymer powder,

27、 and thematerial characteristics of this form are subject to the appli-cable requirements of this guide. In present practice, thisincludes ram-extruded bars, compression-molded sheets, anddirect-molded shapes that are subsequently trimmed.4. Significance and Use4.1 This guide aims to provide guidanc

28、e for a range ofvarious assessments and evaluations to aid in preclinicalresearch and device development of various UHMWPE com-ponents in orthopedic and spinal devices used for the repair ofmusculoskeletal disorders.4.2 This guide includes brief descriptions of various assess-ments, representative d

29、ata, processing conditions, and intendeduse or uses, as well as the qualitative and quantitative analysesof the UHMWPE powder to a finished product component.4.3 The user is encouraged to use appropriate ASTMInternational and other standards to conduct the physical,chemical, mechanical, biocompatibi

34、fthis standard.F2759 1125. UHMWPE Fabricated Forms and Conditions5.1 Conventional UHMWPE is manufactured by compres-sion molding or ram extrusion and has not been intentionallycross-linked before terminal sterilization.5.2 Extensively radiation-cross-linked UHMWPE is manu-factured by compression mol

35、ding or extrusion and irradiatedwith a dosage higher than 40 kGy of gamma or e-beamradiation for improved wear resistance.5.3 Antioxidant (Alpha-Tocopherol)Two stabilizing meth-ods for the antioxidant UHMWPE form (Vitamin E-stabilizedor alpha-tocopherol) are blending or diffusing. The blendingmethod

36、 has the Vitamin E mixed (blended) into the UHMWPEpowder before consolidation and radiation cross-linking. Thediffusing method has the Vitamin E diffusing into a consoli-dated UHMWPE form before or after radiation cross-linking.Also, antioxidant UHMWPE could potentially be used withoutany radiation

37、cross-linking.5.4 Thermal ProcessingUHMWPE-fabricated forms un-dergo at least one or more thermal treatments during theconsolidation processes of extrusion or molding, annealing,cross-linking or after cross-linking. The thermal history shouldbe documented and its effects assessed with mechanical,phy

38、sical, chemical, and preclinical testing.5.5 UMHWPE powder is classified as Types 1, 2, or 3.These types have different molecular weights and materialproperties as defined in Specification F648.6. UHMWPE Decision Chart (Table 1)6.1 The assessment chart shown in Table 1 should beperformed as indicate

39、d on the listed UHMWPE types.6.2 UMHWPE fabricated form testing should be pursuedwith samples that are in the final conditions with respect toannealing, sterilization, aging, and packaging. Assessmentparameters should include and be compared to clinicallysuccessful UHMWPE materials.7. Test Methods7.

40、1 Virgin UHMWPE PowderThe tests shown in Table 2should be conducted on the UHMWPE types designated inTable 1.
