Radiation crosslinked ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) with high mechanical strength, wear resistance, and oxidative stability is critical for the long term performance and life span of the joint implants based on crosslinked UHMWPE. The use of
polyphenols are potential alternatives for the stabilisation of highly crosslinked UHMWPE for joint arthroplasty.
