First combination of three clinically proven biomaterials now available for the manufacture of medical devices such as spinal and cardiovascular implants
FLOWOOD, Miss., Oct. 17, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Superior Polymers, an innovator in advanced materials for medical applications, today announces the launch of Magnolia Trinity PEEK, which brings together three clinically proven biomaterials. Magnolia Trinity PEEK combines carbon fiber, hydroxyapatite and polyetheretherketone – three crucial materials needed in high-performance medical applications. Now Magnolia Trinity PEEK offers unparalleled versatility, biocompatibility and durability for medical devices such as orthopedic and cardiovascular implants or surgical instruments, catheter components and more.
“Superior Polymers pushed the boundaries of materials science to create Magnolia Trinity PEEK,” said Bob Fruge, director of Business Development for Superior Polymers. “Bringing these three proven materials together in one application is unprecedented. This new composite material opens up new possibilities for the use of implantable polymers for engineers, designers and manufacturers. We are thrilled to bring Magnolia Trinity PEEK to our customers and the marketplace to ultimately improve patient outcomes.”
Multiple studies have proven the positive effects of hydroxyapatite, carbon fiber and polyetheretherketone.i Carbon fiber is known for its exceptional mechanical properties, while hydroxyapatite is a natural mineral component of bone, known for its osteoconductive properties. By combining these materials, multifunctional composites can be created that can simultaneously provide structural support, promote bone growth and resist wear and tear.
Magnolia Trinity PEEK is easily machinable and can be easily customized to specific medical device designs. This versatility allows for the creation of complex and patient-specific implants.
Additional key features and benefits of Magnolia Trinity PEEK include:
