FABRICATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF UHMWPE REINFORCED BY FORSTERITE NANO CRYSTALLITES AS AN IMPLANT BIOCOMPOSITE

Forsterite nano crystallite was synthesized by mixing talc and MgCO₃ in a ball mill for ten hours and then heating at 1000°C for ten minutes. Using twin-screw extrusion and then compression molding, an ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) reinforced by forsterite nano crystallites with...
