    Abstract: A method for manufacturing of ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) for implants, where the implants have been machined out of UHMWPE blocks or extruded rods, has anthocyanin dispersely imbedded in the polyethylene. The implant is then exposed to γ ray or electron beam irradiation in an amount of at least 2.5 Mrad followed by a heat treatment to prevent the implant from becoming brittle in the long term as well as to improve strength and wear. The method includes mixing a powder or granulate resin of UHMWPE with an aqueous liquid that contains anthocyanin in a predetermined amount. The water is then evaporated to deposit the anthocyanin in a predetermined concentration on the polyethylene particles. The doped UHMWPE particles are compressed into blocks at temperatures in a range of approximately 135° C.-250° C. and pressures in a range of approximately 2-70 MPa. Medical implants are made from the blocks.

    Abstract: A method for making an ultra-high weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) medical implant starts with obtaining a preform consolidated from UHMWPE resin. Thereafter the preform is hot isostaticly pressed at a temperature between 150° C. and 190° C. at a pressure up to 30,000 psi. After the hot isostatic pressing the preform is sequentially irradiated in a solid state at a total radiation dose of 2 to 10 MRad. The irradiated UHMWPE preform is then heated to a temperature of about 110° C. to about 190° C. for between 2 to 10 hours. The irradiated and heated preform is then cooled after each irradiation and heating to at or below 50° C., and thereafter a medical implant is formed from the preform. Alternately, the process can be performed on the medical implant itself.

    Abstract: A prosthetic head for a femoral component has a metal shell with a tapered cavity. The shell has a part-spherical outer surface defining an inner portion terminating in an open end. A polymeric material completely fills the inner portion of the hollow shell extending from an inner surface of the shell to the open end. The polymeric material includes a conically tapered socket centered about the polar axis intermediate ends of the open end wherein the shell is a hollow titanium shell having an inner surface with a porous structure for receiving a portion of the polymeric material. The hollow titanium shell inner surface has at least one rib extending inwardly toward the conically tapered socket.
