Conference Object Nanoscale Surface Modification of Ultrahigh Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) Samples With the W Plus C Ion Implantation(Materials Research Soc, 2007) Urkac, E. Sokullu; Oztarhan, A.; Tihminlioglu, F.; Kaya, N.; Budak, S.; Chhay, B.; Ila, D.In this work, Ultra High Molecular Weight Poly Ethylene (UHMWPE) samples Were implanted by W + C ions using Metal-Vapour Vacuum Arc (MEVVA) ion implantation system with a fluence of 10(17) ion/cm(2) and extraction voltage of 30 kV. Samples were characterized with Raman Spectra, ATR-FTIR, UV-VIS-NlR Spectrum and RBS. Surface morphology of implanted and unimplanted samples were examined in nanoscale with AFM.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 16Thermal Characterization of Ag and Ag Plus N Ion Implanted Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (uhmwpe)(Elsevier Ltd., 2007) Urkaç, Emel Sokullu; Oztarhan, A.; Tıhmınlıoğlu, Funda; Kaya, N.; Ila, D.; Muntele, C.; Tek, Z.Most of total hip joints are composed of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE). However, as ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene is too stable in a body, wear debris may accumulate and cause biological response such as bone absorption and loosening of prosthesis. In this study, ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene samples were Ag and Ag + N hybrid ion implanted by using MEVVA ion implantation technique to improve its surface properties. Samples were implanted with a fluence of 10(17) ion/cm(2) and extraction voltage of 30 kV. Implanted and unimplanted samples were investigated by thermo-gravimetry analysis (TGA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), optical microscopy (OM) and contact Angle measurement. Thermal characterization results showed that the ion bombardment induced an increase in the % crystallinity, onset and termination degradation temperatures of UHMWPE. (c) 2007 Elsevier B.V.
