Description
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of high polymer materials, and particularly relates to an ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene plate and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
Due to the excellent comprehensive performance of the ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (the polyethylene with the molecular weight of more than 100 ten thousand), the ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene has the wear resistance, the corrosion resistance, the impact resistance and the self-lubricating property which are incomparable with other engineering plastics, is a novel thermoplastic engineering plastic and is widely used for artificial joint replacement. However, in the long-term in-vivo service process of the ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene artificial joint, abrasion generated by friction with a matched material of the ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene artificial joint is phagocytized by macrophages and cannot be absorbed and degraded, so that the macrophages die, and meanwhile, abrasion, action osteolysis, aseptic loosening, inflammation and the like are generated, and a secondary operation or a plurality of revision replacement operations are often required. In order to solve the above problems, ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene chemically cross-linked with silane was developed, but its yield was extremely low and clinical wear rate was extremely high (Kurtz s.uhmwpe Biomaterials Handbook [ J ] 2009,33-43), and the subsequent high energy electron beam and gamma ray irradiation cross-linking method improved wear resistance of the cross-linked ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene.
But the radiation penetration problem exists when the radiation crosslinking is carried out, the distribution of the radiation dose in the thick plate is not uniform, and the general trend is that the dose of the outer layer is large and the dose of the inner layer is small. Experiments show that the penetration depth of the 10MeV linear electron accelerator to the ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene is less than 50mm, and the irradiation doses of the inner layer and the outer layer of the plate are greatly different. The difference in irradiation dose directly results in uneven distribution of crosslink density. The cross-linking density and the distribution thereof are closely related to the distribution of the crystalline regions and the amorphous regions of the ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene plate and the strength, toughness and wearability of the cross-linked ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene plate product. Although the wear resistance is greatly improved by improving the crosslinking degree of the irradiation crosslinking, the residual free radicals in the crosslinking forming process can generate chain oxidation reaction with dissolved oxygen to form unstable peroxides, and the degradation of the peroxides causes the polymers to be embrittled through chain scission and recrystallization, so that the performance of the polymers is reduced, and finally, the problems of oxidative fragmentation, delamination and the like of the crosslinked ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene material are shown. In order to solve the problems, a biocompatible antioxidant (such as vitamin E) is added into the ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene plate to eliminate residual free radicals and improve the oxidation stability of the ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene artificial joint.
The conventional antioxidant addition methods are mainly classified into two main groups, one is to mix the antioxidant into ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene powder before irradiation to form a preform, such as disclosed in patent publication nos. EP2291417B1 and CN 102089333A. However, the research shows that the antioxidant is added before the irradiation crosslinking to inhibit the crosslinking, and when the content of the antioxidant in the ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene is higher (such as the concentration of vitamin E is higher than 0.1wt percent), the antioxidant can react with free radicals generated by irradiation in the polyolefin, thereby hindering the crosslinking reaction between the free radicals in the polymer; the antioxidant not only inhibits the crosslinking reaction, but also accelerates the breakage of the molecular chain of the ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene, reduces the molecular weight, is not beneficial to improving the crosslinking degree, and influences the wear resistance and the comprehensive mechanical property; when the content of vitamin E is too low (e.g. the content of vitamin E is less than 0.01 wt%), the vitamin E loses antioxidant activity and loses antioxidant effect when irradiated by high-energy rays. The other way of adding the antioxidant is to immerse the irradiated and crosslinked ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene into the antioxidant and diffuse the antioxidant to the surface of the ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene plate at about 120 ℃. The plate was removed and kept at 120 ℃ for a while to allow the antioxidant to diffuse internally. Or the ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene prosthesis blank is irradiated and crosslinked, and then is immersed into an antioxidant solution, and after being taken out, the ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene prosthesis blank is further subjected to heat treatment to ensure that the antioxidant is internally diffused. However, the method of irradiation-soaking-diffusion is difficult to diffuse the antioxidant, the antioxidant is mainly distributed on the surface layer, the content of the antioxidant in the antioxidant is very little, and the internal and external concentrations are not uniform. Moreover, the heat treatment process is long, and the long-time heat treatment also causes the performance of the material to be reduced. And the content of the antioxidant with excessively low internal part can not play a role in eliminating free radicals, can not effectively eliminate the free radicals generated in the irradiation process and can play an anti-oxidation role in the subsequent use process.

In view of the above, the invention provides an ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene plate, and a preparation method and an application thereof, and the invention increases the concentration of an antioxidant from inside to outside to ensure that the antioxidant content and the proportion of irradiation dose of different sample depths are kept constant in the irradiation process, thereby obtaining the ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene plate with uniform crosslinking density.

and (3) flatly spreading the mixed powder in a film cavity, and sequentially carrying out primary die pressing, irradiation crosslinking and annealing treatment on a flatly spread product according to the method in the embodiment 1 to obtain the ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene plate.
Test example
Sampling the ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene plates prepared in the examples 1-6 and the comparative example 1 by using high-precision engraving and milling equipment, wherein the sampling positions are the surface layer, the central layer (at the depth of 1/2) and the depth of 1/4 of the ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene plate; the resulting samples were tested for tensile properties according to ASTM D638, for impact properties according to ASTM F648, and for crosslink density according to ASTM F2214, the results of which are given in Table 1.
Table 1 properties of the ultra high molecular weight polyethylene sheets of examples 1 to 6 and comparative example 1.
As can be seen from the data in Table 1, the uniformity of the distribution of the crosslinking density at different positions of the crosslinked panel is improved after the antioxidant is added in layers, and in example 6, the total amount of each layer of the mixed powder from the center to the two sides is different, i.e., the thickness of each layer is different, but the concentration of the antioxidant is kept to decrease gradually from the two sides to the center layer by layer, so that the effect of uniform distribution of the crosslinking density is also achieved. The ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene plate prepared in the comparative example 1 has uniform distribution of the concentration of the antioxidant, the high concentration of the antioxidant at the center, low irradiation intensity and inhibition of crosslinking reaction, the irradiation intensity of the surface layer is higher than that of the central layer, the crosslinking density is high, and the overall crosslinking density is not uniform.
Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, it is only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments, and other embodiments can be obtained without inventive step according to the embodiments, and the embodiments are within the scope of the present invention.
