    This document summarizes ASTM F 732, a test method for evaluating the wear properties of materials used in human joint prostheses. The test uses a tribometer to subject material combinations to linear or ball-cup motion wear tests under a monitored normal load and friction conditions. Specimens are characterized before and after up to 2 million cycles. Results include wear rates and mechanisms. Failure of hip implants can occur due to bone resorption from stress shielding or wear particles disrupting bone remodeling balance and causing osteolysis.

    ASTM F 732

    Scope
    a laboratory method for evaluating the wear properties of combinations of materials that are being considered for use as bearing surfaces of human total joint prostheses.

    Significance and Use


    This test method is designed to evaluate combinations of materials with respect to the amount of polymer wear, where quantifiable wear occurs primarily on the polymeric component.

    Orthopaedic Wear Application


    For linear reciprocating wear motion applications For fixed-bearing ball-cup (hip-type) wear motion applications, For nominally linear motion delamination wear applications

    Wear Test Machine / Tribometer


    The UMT allows for monitoring during the test the actual dynamic normal load, friction force and friction coefficient, and depth of wear. Optionally, it can measure additional parameters of contact acoustic emission and temperature.

    Wear Test Machine / Tribometer


    UMT-3M

    HJS wear test machine.

    Procedure & Result


    Procedure Gravimetric measurement method The minimum duration shall be two million wear cycles. The minimum number of wear measurements, subsequent to the initial measurement shall be four. Results Wear Rates volumetric loss of the bearing component(s) as a function of sliding distance and/or the number of wear cycles Wear Mechanisms: Provide a description of the articulating surfaces of both components. An explanation of how the wear mechanisms meet the designated criteria

    Biomaterial
    A biomaterial is defined as any systemically, pharmacologically inert substance or combination of substances utilized for implantation within or incorporation with a living system to supplement or replace functions of living tissues or organs.

    Biocompatibility is the ability of material to perform within an appropriate host response in a specific application. Biocompatibility in other words is the quality of not having toxic or injurious effects on biological systems.

    Reason for failure


    Primary hip arthoplasties are subjected to failure due to bone resorption i.e. bone loss. Failure due to fatigue loading of hip joint. Relative micro motions resulting from improper implant fitting in the bone cavity. Stress shielding followed by bone resorption in the other areas of bone-implant interface. Hip failure due to bone loss is caused by the production of wear particles associated with the deterioration of the prosthesis

    Implant Loosening

    Loosening of acetabular cup)

    loosening of femoral stem

    Extreme loosening may lead to bone fracture

    What causes implant loosening? Stress shielding:

    Metal devices carries too large of a portion of bones load

    Mechanical mismatch
    Elastic modulus (GPa)* Haynes 25, annealed SS 316L, annealed Ti-6Al-4V, annealed 210 190 114 Elastic modulus (GPa)* Cortical Bone Cancellous Bone 17 - 24 0.1 - 4.5

    What causes implant loosening? UHMWPE Wear Debris:


    - billions to trillions wear particles produced (150,000 per step) - Wear rate = 0.1 mm/year - most are < 1 micron - Wear particles migrate to bone and cause osteolysis This causes osteolysis (rapid bone loss) immune system response to wear particles bone modeling balance upset
    Wear Particle

    Causes loss of bone, implant loosening

    Biomaterials
    Stainless Steel Alloys Cobalt-Chrome alloys (Vitallium) Titanium alloys Composites

    Combinations for Joint application


    Metal Cermic Combination Metal Polyethylene combination Metal Metal Combination

    High Wear Rate of poltyethylene Ceramic- Brittle in nature Metal Best Suitable because of realtively high resistance to wear Still need to optimise the wear and corrostion rate
