Biocompatibility with Internal Chemistry of the Human Body
Fine Ceramics possess a high degree of chemical and physical stability and are biocompatible with the internal chemistry of the human body.
The artificial joints shown below are made of materials that are compatible with the internal chemistry of the human body.
Applications: Biocompatible components for orthopedic joint replacement systems.
Description
Biocompatibility
Fine Ceramics are light, strong and chemically stable. Due to these characteristics, Fine Ceramics have helped advance the field of medical science, and Fine Ceramic materials and process technologies have become crucial to the development of contemporary medicine.
The term "Fine Ceramics" is interchangeable with "advanced ceramics," "technical ceramics" and "engineered ceramics." Use varies by region and industry.
