Static and dynamic characterization of biomedical polyethylene laser welding using biocompatible nano-particles

In this research, polymeric joints of Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) sheets were realized and welded by a diode laser operating at 970 nm wavelength. One of the polymer sheet was doped, at different concentrations, with nano filler (carbon, titanium and silver nano-particles) in o...
