RESUMO

The bone cement used for the fixation of the prosthetic components in the surgeries of joint replacement, more resistant to the compression than to the traction, has its mechanical properties altered by several factors among those the commercial formulation and preparation employee s method. It is the objective of this work to evaluate the mechanical properties to the compression of the two commercial formulas of bone cement manually prepared and using vacuum, according to the manufacturer s instructions. A molding set was made in stainless steel and it allowed for the preparation of 48 bodies of proof for each experimental group, adding up to 192 proof bodies total which were tested in the Universal Rehearsal Machine, with the specifications based on the ISO 5833 and the ASTM F451-86 regulations. The elaboration of the diagram "tension vs. deformation" of each of the experimental group analyzed the mechanical properties of the bone cement in relation to the elasticity module, tension and deformation on the proportional limit among the groups with the same commercial formula and among the groups with the same mixture method. Analyzed statistically, by Kruskal-Wallis s method of the variation (p ≤0.001) and by the Dunn’s method (p ≤0.05). Regarding the elasticity, the group 2M was the one with the highest module, 1563 MPa, a statistically significant value (p ≤0.05) in relation to the groups 1M, 1V and 2V to the tension at the limit of the proportionality, there is no significant differences among them, but these differences were relevant when compared to groups 1V and 2M. The deformation at the limit of the proportionality of the highest percentage was to group 1M, 3.36%, being this the relevant statistical difference when compared to group 2M. The resistance tests to the compression of the national and international cement prepared manually and by vacuum show that there is no important difference between the two kind of bone cement, and neither between the two ways of mixing them.
