Abstract

In this paper, adding multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) to the polymethylmethacrylate-based (PMMA) bone cements as a way of reinforcement were prepared, and the structure was investigated. The aim of this study was to confirmed the transverse-direction fracture toughness (KIv) in bone cement. TheKIvof PMMA cement and PMMA/MWNCTs cement were determined to be 1.32±0.1 MPa m1/2and 1.96±0.1 MPa m1/2, respectively.
