AB  - A thrust on improvement of different properties of polymer has taken a 
      contemporary route with advent of nanofillers. Although several nanofillers are 
      existent; MultiWalled Carbon Nanotubes- (MWCNTs) and h-Boron Nitride 
      nanoplatelets-(h-BNNPs) unique combination of 1D and 2D dimensional geometry aids 
      an advantage of B-C-N triad elemental effects on properties of tested samples. 
      The current study aims to investigate the effects of MWCNT and h-BNNP 
      reinforcement in High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) for high load bearing areas of 
      medical applications requiring both elastic and viscous behavior. The results 
      were analyzed keeping a view of its application in areas like HDPE based fracture 
      fixation plates, acetabular cups and others. The composite and hybrid samples 
      with different loadings were prepared after surface modification of nanofillers 
      by mechanical mixing and molding technique. The dynamic nano-mechanical 
      properties like storage modulus, loss modulus and tan delta were assessed for 
      each sample during frequency swept from 10 to 220 Hz. The viscoelastic properties 
      like h(c)/h(m), H/E, elastic-plastic deformation were investigated and evaluated. 
      At a frequency of 10 Hz, the storage and loss modulus of 0.1 CNT increased by 
      37.56% and decreased by 23.52% respectively on comparison with pure HDPE. This 
      infers a good elastic as well as viscous behavior. Overall elastic behavior of 
      0.1 CNT was confirmed from tan delta evaluation. The interaction between B-C-N 
      elemental triad had significant effect on creep strength, visco-damping property 
      (h(c)/h(m) and H/E), elastic plastic displacement and pile-up and sink-in 
      behavior. Highest creep strength and visco-damping property was exhibited by 0.25 
      CNT/0.15 BNNP hybrid. The elastic-plastic displacement of hybrid composite was 
      noted as least, which decreased by 30% on comparison with pure HDPE. It can be 
      inferred that presence of 1D-MWCNT and 2D-h-BNNP had significant effect on 
      important dynamic viscoelastic and creep properties of HDPE based hybrid 
      composites.
