The aim of this work is to improve the wear resistance of UHMWPE through the addition of 1%wt. of carbon nanofiber (CF) and 2%wt. of paraffin oil retaining the typical ductility of pure material. Different preparation methods (hot plate and magnetic stir bar “MS”, ultrasonic bath “US”, ball milling “BM”, twin-screw extrusion ”EX”) were employed in order to find the optimum dispersion method of filler into the polymeric matrix choosing the best conditions for synthesized UHMWPE nanocomposites

Abstract

The aim of this work is to improve the wear resistance of UHMWPE through the addition of 1%wt. of carbon nanofiber (CF) and 2%wt. of paraffin oil retaining the typical ductility of pure material. Different preparation methods (hot plate and magnetic stir bar “MS”, ultrasonic bath “US”, ball milling “BM”, twin-screw extrusion ”EX”) were employed in order to find the optimum dispersion method of filler into the polymeric matrix choosing the best conditions for synthesized UHMWPE nanocomposites
