Product Details
KB3/KB3M is a 3d printer which can print Multi-material based on PEEK materials, from Special Engineering Plastics to engineering plastics, top-down compatibility. In the medical field, PEEK is usually the most widely used
PEEK material introduction
Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) is a bone implant material approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2013. It is a semi-crystalline high-performance polymer material that has been internationally considered to be one of the most promising biomaterials that are in the future, and in the next generation it is possible to replace titanium alloy materials as raw materials for bone implants.
Compared with metal materials, PEEK has a density and elastic modulus closer to that of the human bone. Using PEEK as implant material will reduce postoperative discomfort and effectively alleviate the stress shielding effect, and PEEK is translucent and non-magnetic to X-ray transmission. PEEK material has excellent mechanical properties, good chemical inertness, high temperature resistance above 200 °C, and can be repeatedly high temperature disinfection.
Due to the high strength of the PEEK material and its good compatibility with the human body, traditional titanium and ceramics have been successfully replaced as human bone materials and denture materials. PEEK is known by the engineering community as "the most promising material of the 21st century." More than 2 million products have been implanted in the human body today. The material is recognized by many medical device manufacturers and surgeons for its excellent performance and quality, and has been fully used in the spinal, trauma and joint fields.
Material properties
● Excellent biocompatibility
● The elastic modulus is closer to the bone, which can effectively alleviate the stress shielding effect. The stress on the bone is not completely borne by the implant, making the bone healthier and longer.
● Rigid and soft, superior ductility and fatigue resistance
● Suitable for a variety of coating technologies to meet a variety of innovative applications
● The versatile hand of medical device implants can be seen from top to bottom.
