   Sep 1, 2020 · In this context, the term ‘ultra-high’ indicates a weight average relative molar mass, ¯¯¯ ¯M M ¯ w, greater than 10 6. In practice, the minimum ¯¯¯ ¯M M ¯ w for orthopaedic grades of polyethylene (PE) is about 5 × 10 6, which for linear PE means that chains have a contour length of at least 45 μm.
