Abstract Miniature specimen testing techniques are necessary to characterize the mechanical behavior of UHMWPE components for total joint replacement after sterilization, shelf aging, and implantation. The small punch test has been shown to reproducibly characterize virgin and in vitro aged UHMWPE. The first goal of this study was to demonstrate the feasibility of applying this technology to UHMWPE components after retrieval from the human body. Six short-term retrievals of the same tibial design were characterized with the intent of comparing the mechanical behavior of conventional and enhanced UHMWPE having an extended chain crystalline morphology. Statistically significant relationships were observed between damage scores and the small punch test metrics of initial load, ultimate load, and work to failure. The results of this study support the hypothesis that the in vivo performance of tibial bearings is related to the large deformation mechanical behavior of UHMWPE.

Abstract The elastic and large deformation mechanical behavior of four materials with known clinical performance was examined and correlated with the wear behavior in a hip simulator. Acetabular liners of a commercially-available design were machined from UHMWPE, HDPE, PTFE, and polyacetal and wear tested in a multidirectional hip joint simulator. Elastic and large-deformation mechanical behavior was directly measured from the wear-tested liners using the small punch test. The inverse finite element method was used to compute elastic modulus from the measured small punch test initial stiffness, and the contact stress for the liners was calculated using the theory of elasticity solution. Positive, statistically-significant correlations were observed between the hip simulator wear rate and the initial peak load, ultimate load, and work to failure from the small punch test. Negative correlations were observed between the wear rate and the elastic modulus and contact stress. This results of this study support the hypothesis that the large deformation mechanical behavior of a polymer plays a greater role in the wear mechanisms prevalent in total hip replacements than the elastic behavior.
