Abstract

See full text

Methods and compositions for fabricating prosthetic medical devices exhibiting improved wear resistance include selectively cross-linking polymeric resins then curing and shaping the polymer into a finished article. The selectively cross-linked polymeric compositions may be created by blending a specific amount of cross-linked resins with a specific amount of uncross-linked resins then cured into a polymeric matrix whereby the desired degree or percentage of overall cross-linking is obtained. The polymeric material may then be formed directly into a finished article by injection molding the polymeric material.
