Seasoning Polymethyl Methacrylate (PMMA) Bone Cements with Incorrect Mix Ratio.

Robert Karpiński | Jakub Szabelski | Jacek Maksymiuk
Materials (Basel, Switzerland) | 2019

Cemented joint prostheses are widely used in orthopaedic surgery; however, implants/bone bonds are known to be susceptible to aseptic loosening, particularly in the case of long-term performance. The exact mechanism of this failure is under constant examination. One of the critical factors to the final mechanical functionality of bone cement can be an incorrect mix ratio of a two-component material (powdered polymer and liquid monomer). It can result in the deterioration of the final mechanical strength properties. The paper presents the results from an experimental study on the effects of the deviation from the correct mix ratio on the moisture uptake and the compression strength of cement depending on the seasoning time in Ringer's solution. The results were subjected to statistical analysis and a mathematical model was developed.
