Notizen: Due to the increasing interest in forming blends of liquid-crystalline polymers with conventional thermoplastics, it becomes important to determine the interfacial tension between two such polymers. A method for evaluating the interfacial tension between a thermotropic copolyester based on hydroxybenzoic and hydroxynaphthoic acid residues, and polyethersulfone is presented, based on the Fort and Patterson method. It is found that the value of the interfacial tension in the melt is much higher than is the case between conventional polymer pairs. It is suggested that this high value reflects an entropic effect due to the strong exclusion of the flexible coil polymer from the nematic melt. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Notizen: This study is the first description of the extensive porosity which is preferentially located at the cement-prosthesis interface of cemented femoral components of total hip replacements. The observation is important because the interfacial porosity may decrease the strength of the cement-femoral prosthesis interface and jeopardize the mechanical integrity of the cement mantle. We examined the cement-metal interfaces from a multiplicity of in vivo and in vitro specimens using both optical and scanning electron microscopy. These samples included several stem designs, implants made from either Co-Cr or Ti alloy, implants made with a variety of surface finishes and both centrifuged and uncentrifuged cement. All in vivo and in vitro samples had marked porosity in the cement focally concentrated at the cement-metal interface. The amount of porosity at the interface greatly exceeded the amount of general porosity found throughout the bulk cement. Centrifuging did not affect the interfacial porosity, and neither did alloy nor surface finish. The presence of these pores may be expoained by the rheological characteristics of the cement. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
