AB  - The potential of quantifying the variations in IR active bands was explored while 
      using the chemometric analysis of FTIR spectra for selecting orthopedic 
      biomaterial of industrial scale i.e., ultra-high molecular weight PE (UHMWPE). 
      The nano composites UHMWPE with multi-walled carbon nano-tubes (MWCNTs) and 
      Mg-silicate were prepared and irradiated with 25 kGy and 50 kGy of gamma dose. 
      Principal component analysis (PCA) revealed that first three principal components 
      (PCs) are responsible for explaining the >99% of variance in FTIR data of UHMWPE 
      on addition of fillers and/or irradiation. The factor loadings plots revealed 
      that PC-1 was responsible for explaining the variance in polyethylene 
      characteristics bands and the IR active region induced by fillers i.e., 440 cm-1, 
      456 cm-1, from 900-1200 cm-1, 1210 cm-1, 1596 cm-1, PC-2 was responsible for 
      explaining the variance in spectra due to radiation-induced oxidation and cross 
      linking, while the PC-3 is responsible for explaining the variance induced 
      because of IR active bands of MWCNTs. Hierarchy cluster analysis (HCA) was 
      employed to classify the samples into four clusters with respect to similarity in 
      their IR active bands which is further confirmed by PCA. According to multi 
      attribute analysis with PCA and HCA, 65 kGy irradiated sample is optimum choice 
      from the existing alternatives in the group of irradiated pristine UHMWPE, 
      UHMWPE/Mg-silicate irradiated with 25 kGy of gamma dose was the optimum choice 
      for UHWMPE/Mg-silicate nano composites, and UHMWPE/gammaMWCNTs composites containing 
      1.0% dof gamma MWCNTs for UHMWPE/MWCNTs nanocomposites, respectively. The results 
      show the effectiveness of quantifying the variance for decision as far as 
      optimization of biomaterials in orthopedic industrial applications is concerned.
