    Notes: Investigations over the years have shown that the mirror-finished Al2O3 ceramic is a much more suitable frictional counterpart to ultrahigh molecular weight (UHMW) polyethylene than metal. Despite the extremely great hardness difference between polyethylene and Al2O3 ceramic, a considerable lower wear rate is obtained for the polyethylene socket with this new low-friction material combination. The unexpectedly favorable tribological behavior of this ceramic material in contact with polyethylene may be attributed to the following factors: better values for corrosion resistance characteristics, wettability with liquids, surface gloss, hardness, and scratch resistance of the ceramic material in comparison with those of the hitherto used metallic implant materials (AISI-316L steel or cast Co—Cr—Mo alloy). It appears that, by using this new combination of materials for the socket and the ball, it will be possible to prolong the service life of artificial hip joints considerably without having to effect any fundamental changes in the present design and implantation principle retaining the hitherto used anchorage shaft made of wrought Co—Ni—Cr—Mo—Ti alloy Protasul-10 of extremely high corrosion fatigue strength.

    Description / Table of Contents: Crosslinking of novolac fibres was studied by means of plasma etching in connection with light and scanning electron microscopy. With proceeding crosslinking by formaldehyde from the outer skin to the inner of the fibre a highly cross-linked shell of not more than 10 to 13 μm thickness was formed after about 8 h crosslinking time. On the other hand, more porous networks of modified novolacs permit a rapid and complete crosslinking of the fibres.
    Notes: Mittels Plasmaätzung in Verbindung mit Licht- und Rasterelektronenmikroskopie wurde der Vernetzungsverlauf von Phenolharznovolakfasern verfolgt. Bei der von außen nach innen fortschreitenden Vernetzung mit Formaldehyd bildet sich im Zeitraum von etwa 8 h eine 10 bis 13 μm dicke Schicht aus, deren Netzwerkdichte eine weitere Vernetzung des Faserinneren verhindert. Weitmaschiger aufgebaute Netzwerke modifizierter Ausgangsnovolake hingegen lassen eine schnelle und vollständige Durchvernetzung der Fasern zu.
