The implant device, which exhibits superior biocompatibility and biostability, is intended for use as an intervertebral body fusion (IBF) device.
The device’s characteristics including sterilization resistance and good combination of stiffness and ductility makes it suitable for medical implant applications, claims Modern Plastics, a stocking distributor of VESTAKEEP products.
