Biodegradable polymers show great potential to be used as materials for temporary implants and bone replacement applications in orthopedics. However, its use in high load-bearing applications will depend on the successful development of biodegradable implants with a mechanical performance matching that of human bone. This article describes the optimization of the injection molding process of an alternative biod...
This paper describes the process optimization in injection molding of high-density polyethylene (HDPE). Both conventional injection molding and shear controlled orientation (SCORIM) were employed in processing. The process optimization was based on design of experiments and complemented with analysis of variance. Mechanical characterization was carried out by tensile testing. Wide-angle X-ray diffraction and di...
