Abstract

The invention relates to an antioxidant cross-linked polymer and a preparation method thereof. The existing cross-linked ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene has relatively low strength and toughness. The polymer provided by the invention is a mixture of cross-linked ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene and an antioxidant at a weight ratio of (100-10000):1. The preparation method comprises the following steps of: dissolving the antioxidant into an organic solvent, adding the ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene resin powder, sufficiently mixing and drying; placing the mixture powder into a mould; heating and pressurizing so as to melt the mixture powder into block; cooling the block below the melting point and annealing while maintaining the pressure; reducing the temperature to normal temperature and demoulding to obtain block blank; and irradiating with high-power electron beam to obtain the product. The polyethylene material provided by the invention has excellent wear resistance, oxidation stability, tensile strength and impact strength, is suitable for manufacturing the friction lining of an artificial joint, and can reduce the wear of the artificial joint.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an anti-oxidation cross-linked polymer and a preparation method thereof. The polymer is suitable for implanting medical devices in the body, has excellent oxidation stability, and belongs to the technical field of materials science. Background technique [0002] Due to its excellent wear resistance, good mechanical properties and biocompatibility, ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene began to be used as a stress-bearing material for artificial joint linings in the 1960s. However, due to the long-term wear and tear of UHMWPE prosthetic components in the body, a large number of wear debris with a size below a few microns is generated, which can easily lead to osteolysis around the prosthesis, thereby causing aseptic loosening and artificial Joint failure. [0003] In the 1990s, people used radiation crosslinking technology to improve the wear resistance of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene. However, the fatigue tough...
