Standard Guide for Evaluating the Extent of Oxidation in Polyethylene Fabricated Forms Intended for Surgical Implants
STANDARD published on 1.9.2017
Why Redline?
A PDF redline is a quick and easy way to compare all of the changes between the current, active standard and the previous version.
With a redline you'll immediately see:
Save Time and Trouble!
With a Redline you no longer have to spend time trying to determine what has changed in the new standard! Redlines save you time and ensure you see what the changes are to the standard.
Price
When you select the "Active + Redline" option you get both documents! Best of all, the cost of an Active + Redline is only slightly more than buying the Active Standard by itself.

This guide covers method for evaluating the relative extent of oxidation in ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene fabricated forms intended for surgical implants. Equipments for this method shall include an infrared spectrometer, specimen holder, and microtome. Specimen shall be tested with infrared spectrometer in accordance to the procedure of test specimen preparation, spectrometer setup, and test specimen configuration. Oxidation peak area, normalization peak area, oxidation index, oxidation index depth locator, oxidation index profile, surface oxidation index, bulk oxidation index, and maximum oxidation index shall be calculated from the spectra. Report shall include material information, sample information, spectrometer information, and data analysis information.
