“…Moreover, cellulose fibre is easy in handling and process for experimental and installation purpose compare to animal and mineral fibre. Utilization of natural fibre composites (NFCs) was introduced in many applications such as automotive, construction, food packaging and medication [1][2][3][4]. Natural fibre composites are a combination of two materials which are natural fibre itself and the matrix.…”

Materials selection in manufacturing process is an important stage and should be performed in parallel with selection of manufacturing process. In automotive industry, production of green automotive component could utilize the natural sources such as plant fibres. In recent years, several multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) techniques are suggested to choose the best materials for particular application. Materials selection tools for natural fibre composites are studied from past researchers with the summary of the advantage and disadvantages. In addition, new optimization approach in materials selection by using statistical analysis such as multiple linear regression (MLR), response surface methodology (RSM) and Taguchi method (TM) is proposed in this study. The proposed method could evaluate the criteria or attribute in materials selection precisely by analyse the relationship of the parameters, goodness of fit, correlation, analysis of variance (ANOVA), determination of coefficient and the significant criteria in to the desired goal of the design problem.

“…To further improve its mechanical properties and tribological response, fillers/reinforcements are incorporated into the polymer [5]. Several inorganic filler materials such as hydroxyapatite (HA), alumina, quartz, carbon, kaolin, titania has been explored in UHMWPE composite [6]. Implant materials must be bioactive, inert, resorbable and coherent with living tissue [7].…”

“…For biomedical applications such as dental and orthopedic implants, one of the appealing materials is hydroxyapatite (Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2), which is biocompatible, bioactive and main mineral component of the bone matrix, and falls into the classes of resorbable bioactive and materials. The hydroxyapatite form straight biochemical bonds with living tissues [6,8,9]. Nano sized hydroxyapatite show much higher bioactivity [10,11] and improved resorbability [12,13] than micron sized ones.…”

In this study, HAp reinforcement into UHMWPE matrix having 1.0 % wt. mass and its effects on microstructural and mechanical properties of the UHMWPE composites were investigated. UHMWPE composites reinforced with 0.5, 1 and 2.0 wt. % nano HAp powders, respectively were successfully produced by solution and gelation method. SEM studies showed that HAP nano particles were homogenously distributed into UHMWPE matrix and good cross-linked with the matrix. SEM-map EDS analysis confirmed SEM. FTIR results revealed that HAp incorporation into matrix was conducted and crystallization of UHMWPE increased by increment in amount of HAp results in deepening crystallization peaks at nearby 500 and 1500 cm -1 . DSC results, which is useful technique to determine the variation of melting point and crystallization ratio of UHMWPE composites, indicated that there was no remarkable change in melting points of composites, while crystallinity of the samples generally showed slight increase by increasing amount of nano HAp particles. The tensile test instrument was utilized to determine elastic modulus of the samples and their elastic modulus were raised from 1050 to 1900 MPa with higher HAp reinforcement. It can be concluded that UHMWPE-1 % wt. HAp composites have promising results by being paired with crystallinity and elastic modulus.

“…Ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) is a member of the polyethylene (PE) family and has a molecular weight of over 1,000,000 g mol −1 , as defined by ISO 11542. As an engineering material, UHMWPE has many attractive physical and chemical properties, especially high impact strength and abrasion resistance, that are unparalleled among other polymeric materials . Many of the outstanding properties of UHMWPE are indeed closely related to its molecular weight …”

The physical properties of ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) are generally highly dependent on its molecular weight. However, in our study, it was found that two UHMWPE samples of similar molecular weight, SLL‐5 and GUR 4150, have significantly different impact strengths, with the Charpy impact strength of GUR 4150 being almost 3.4 times that of SLL‐5. To reveal the reasons, the structure–property relations of these UHMWPE materials were investigated. Morphologies of the nascent particles and impact fracture surfaces, the melting behavior, rheological behavior, and three‐phase (crystalline, amorphous, and interphase) contents were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, advanced rotary rheometer, and Raman spectroscopy, respectively. It was observed that no significant differences in the crystal structures of SLL‐5 and GUR 4150, but GUR 4150 had smaller nascent particles sizes and a lower degree of entanglement when compared with those of SLL‐5. Accordingly, a mechanism to clarify the significant difference in the impact strengths of GUR 4150 and SLL‐5 was developed. More importantly, this work may be useful for improving the preparation technologies and industrial applications of UHMWPE. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Polym. Sci., Part B: Polym.
