ArCom processing

Biomet. 1997. ArCom processed polyethylene. Report No. Y-BMT-503. Warsaw. [Pg.33]

ArCom is the trade name of a proprietary conversion process, which denotes that the resin has been compression molded in the presence of argon (Biomet, Warsaw, IN). ArCom is produced by HIPing as well as by DCM. [Pg.29]

ArCom XL polyethylene is produced in a multistep process that has been described in the literature [8]. Rods of GUR 1050 are isostatically molded and gamma irradiated at room temperature with a nominal dose of 50kGy. The rods are preheated to 130°C and then hydrostatically extruded with a diametral compression ratio of 1.5. The hydrostatic extrusion produces orientation of the UHMWPE and mechanically anneals the material. The rods are then stress relieved at 130°C prior to machining into components, which are terminally gas plasma sterilized. [Pg.294]
