Evaluation of heat treatment regimes and their influences on the properties of powder‐printed high‐density polyethylene bone implant

Abstract: A two-step heat treatment was utilized as a means to improve the mechanical properties of a high-density polyethylene structure which was fabricated using the three-dimensional printing technique. It was found that the relationship between structure and properties was strongly influenced by heat treatment conditions including treatment times (15-60 min) and treatment temperatures (140-180 • C) of both primary and secondary steps. The use of primary heating at 180 • C for 15 min and secondary heating at 160 • C… Show more

“…The heat treatment time and temperature variation (time: 15-60 min and temperature: 140 °C-180 °C) effect on the properties in both heating steps were studied. The primary heat treatment at 180 °C for 15 min and the second step heat treatment at 160 °C for 60 min generated the scaffold with the highest tensile modulus (Suwanprateeb et al 2011).…”

“…The intrinsic properties strongly influence processibility of UHMWPE in AM routes. These properties include particle shape, size, size distribution, morphology, powder flowability, and crystallization [272]. It has been observed that at the initial stage, UHMWPE possesses a spherical particle shape, known as 'potato shape', which is believed to assist in polymer printability via powder printing strategies [271].…”

“…While there are no reports on using this technique for UHMWPE, but some information is available for 3D printing of HDPE. Suwanprateeb et al varied the amount of starch in HDPE and observed that an increase in starch amount resulted in scaffolds with impaired mechanical properties [272,273]. We postulate that the bottleneck in implementing this technique is PE’s chemical inertness, which restricts its interaction with the commonly used binders.…”

“…This would lead to high control over the pore size and interconnectivity on each cross section and makes it possible to have gradually porous, hierarchical 3D structures. [46] Generally, 3D printing benefits are high control over the structure and porosity, repeatability, wide range of printable material choice (including natural and synthetic polymers, [169][170][171] ceramics, [172,173] metals, [174,175] and composites [46,176] ), and method's simplicity. Because the processing time is relatively short, the term "rapid prototyping" is assigned to 3D printing methods as well.…”
