The results of these studies have shown that the wear factor is proportional to the counterface roughness raised to a power greater than one. In this laboratory study, the effect of surface finish of several biomaterials on the wear of UHMWPE was studied. The study was conducted using reciprocating pin-on-plate wear tests with bovine serum as a lubricant. The biomaterials investigated as the counterface material included stainless steel, cast cobalt chrome (CoCr), CoCr (ASTM F799), alumina ceramic and zirconia ceramic. The counterface topographies of the wear plates were produced using techniques representative of current manufacturing methods. The surface roughness of the wear plates was varied in the range\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">\n                      R\n                      <jats:sub>a<\/jats:sub>\n                    <\/jats:italic>\n                    , = 0.005-0.04 \u03bcm; this was representative of femoral heads and femoral knee components currently used clinically. Metals and ceramics with a similar surface roughness produced a similar wear rate of UHMWPE. For the limited range of smooth counterfaces used in this study only a moderate correlation was found between the surface roughness and the wear factors. For a change in counterface roughness\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">\n                      R\n                      <jats:sub>a<\/jats:sub>\n                    <\/jats:italic>\n                    of 0.005 to 0.04 \u03bcm, the wear factor increased from 7.4 \u00b1 1.6 to 16.5 \u00b1 2.4 \u00d7 10\n                    <jats:sup>\u22129<\/jats:sup>\n                    mm\n                    <jats:sup>3<\/jats:sup>\n                    \/N m (mean \u00b1 standard error). This variation in counterface roughness had much less effect in wear than previously reported for rougher counterfaces. For an extended range of counterface roughness, a stronger correlation was found using an exponential function for the regression fit. The exponential function shows the benefits of decreased wear with decreased surface roughness. Although the wear rate decreased less rapidly with decreased counterface roughness for\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">\n                      R\n                      <jats:sub>a<\/jats:sub>\n                    <\/jats:italic>\n                    values below 0.05 \u03bca, there were significant advantages to be gained from improved femoral head roughness to below 0.01 \u03bcm\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">\n                      R\n                      <jats:sub>a<\/jats:sub>\n                    <\/jats:italic>\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1243\/0954411971534647","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2002,10,1]],"date-time":"2002-10-01T19:24:52Z","timestamp":1033500292000},"page":"17-24","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":116,"title":["The wear of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene sliding on metallic and ceramic counterfaces representative of current femoral surfaces in joint replacement"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"211","author":[{"given":"J G","family":"Lancaster","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Leeds Department of Mechanical Engineering"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"D","family":"Dowson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Leeds Department of Mechanical Engineering"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"G H","family":"Isaac","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"DePuy International Leeds"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"J","family":"Fisher","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Leeds Department of Mechanical Engineering"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[1997,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_1_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"571","DOI":"10.1016\/S0030-5898(20)31836-8","article-title":"The response to particulate debris","volume":"24","author":"Howie D.
