High-density polyethylene (HDP) has been used in clinical practice in total hip replacement since its introduction by Charnley in November 1962. Fears are being expressed that this may be the weakest link and the ultimate cause of failure of the arthroplasty. Long-term clinical experience suggests that loosening may be the primary cause while the presence of HDP wear particles is secondary. Healing of endosteal cavities can take place in the presence of HDP wear particles.

The effect of a synthetic municipal solid waste leachate on the long-term performance of dual-wedge welds in a 1.5 mm thick high-density polyethylene geomembrane (GMB) is reported based on 4 years of testing at 40, 65, 75, and 85 °C. The effect of leachate on the GMB well away from the weld, in the heat-affected zone (HAZ) beside the weld, and in the welded zone are investigated. The slowest antioxidant depletion rate was in the weld itself and the fastest rate for the HAZ adjacent to the weld. The shear break and peel break properties started to decrease after the standard oxidative induction time had depleted to residual, but before the high-pressure oxidative induction time had reached residual. Failures occured at the HAZ adjacent to weld in both the shear and peel tests. No failure of the seam itself was observed. The times to nominal failure of the GMB in the critical HAZ are predicted. The rate of degradation in the weld and sheet are compared.
