Hydroxyapatite

Bone substitute material


      Hydroxyapatite and Beta Tricalcium Phosphate are a group of calcium phosphate materials. Which is usually These elements are found in human bone, thereby preserving bone diseases associated with damage so it is ideal to bring these materials used to maintain and stimulate Bone Regeneration.
      Bone Substitute Materials Technology Of the Smart Maid Group is a joint development between the company Institute for Materials Science National Japan (NIMS) and King Mongkut's University of Technology Thonburi To produce bone-type substitute materials Hydroxyapatite Beta Tricalcium Phosphate and high performance. International standards
      Hydroxyapatite and Beta Tricalcium Phosphate can be produced in a variety of ways, especially from animal species such as bovine bone or shellfish, but the production of hydroxyapatite from animal bone is limited in terms of: Control of material composition and purity In which the human body may become opposed to the remaining chemical elements Therefore, this product has adopted advanced production technology. By using 100% synthetic materials and we can control the purity, porosity and quality of the material to be the same every time. In addition, the bone substitute material can be shaped to suit different applications. And retains a highly porous structure to enable bone cells to adhere and grow better as well
