1.1 This test method describes how the crosslink density, molecular weight between crosslinks, and number of repeat units between crosslinks in ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) crosslinked by ionizing radiation or by chemical means can be determined by measuring the swelling ratio of samples immersed in o-xylene. Examples of experimental techniques used to make these measurements are discussed herein.
