Breakthrough in Nickel-Free, Cobalt-Free Materials for Implants

This webinar introduces BioDur® 108, Carpenter Technology’s latest innovation in cobalt- and nickel-free stainless steel for articulating orthopedic implants. As regulatory pressures increase under the EU MDR 2017/745, BioDur® 108 offers a biocompatible alternative to traditional CoCrMo alloys, easing the burden for MDR compliance. The presentation explores the alloy’s chemistry, mechanical properties, and wear resistance, highlighting its suitability for load-bearing applications such as hip and knee replacements.

Attendees will learn about Carpenter’s newly patented processing method that enhances BioDur® 108’s strength and surface integrity, making it a viable substitute for cobalt-based materials. Comparative data from pin-on-disc wear testing will be shared, demonstrating BioDur® 108’s superior performance in these applications. The alloy’s hypoallergenic properties also address growing concerns around patient nickel sensitivity. Watch the webinar to learn about the material’s versatility across orthopedic, dental, and spinal applications.
