LithaBone TCP 300

LithaBone TCP 300 is a beta-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) ceramic at 98% relative density that the body resorbs and replaces with new bone, suited to bone substitute implants and scaffolds with defined pore geometries.

About

Beta-tricalcium phosphate is a well-established bone-replacement material that the body resorbs and replaces with new bone.

LithaBone TCP 300 uses TCP powder certified to ASTM F1088-04a (suitable for human implants), and sintered parts reach 98% relative density (2% porosity), so open pores come from the design, not the material.

Sintered parts are non-cytotoxic according to ISO 10993-5 and not irritating to skin according to ISO 10993-10; note that these are material test results, not approval of a finished implant.

LithaBone TCP 300 is a good option for bone substitute implants and scaffolds with defined pore geometries.
