CAM Bioceramics

We have developed a wide variety of outstanding coating powders that deliver a stable and robust coating. Our Coating Powder consists of rounded particles obtained by spray drying. This 100% synthetic HA material has been specially developed for plasma coating purposes. The specific morphology and particle size distribution enables good flowability of the powder and enables us to manufacture smooth-finished and highly adhesive coatings.

β –TCP Compound Powder
Our compound powders are obtained by spray drying. The particle size is mainly within the range of 20 to 60 µm. The highly porous surface of this material makes it especially suitable for processing with polymers. In particular to manufacture medical implant composites such as bone screws, interference screws and suture anchors.

α –TCP Cement Powder
This is a highly pure α-TCP cement powder, milled to a particle size with a mean diameter of less than 5 µm. This powder is specially designed for applications that require high reactivity. Its excellent properties have proven particularly useful in bone cements, as it facilitates fast setting, reliable cohesion and injectability of the cement slurry.

Milled β-TCP Powder
This powder is a highly pure β-TCP, milled to a particle size with a mean diameter of less than 5 µm. It has a surprisingly narrow particle size distribution and does not contain particles larger than 10 µm. It exhibits a clean cut-off at the lower end of the scale that negates concerns regarding nano-sized particles. Good particle roundness adds to the powder’s excellent versatility and usability.

Porous Granules
With its fully reticulated structure, this material is the perfect basis for your bone void filler. The highly porous granules facilitate activities of bone regenerating entities. Our 100% synthetic materials with osteoconductive properties are completely replaced by new bone over time. We can produce these granules in many different sizes and compositions, offering excellent solutions for large and smaller bone defects.

Our β-TCP granules with macropores are typically manufactured in irregularly shaped particles between 0.4 and 4 mm. They are used as bone void fillers with pores of approximately 600 µm, enabling the attachment of cells. They also have open porosity for blood circulation. These structures favor faster resorption of the granules and accelerated bone formation.

Porous Blocks
Porous blocks with interconnected pores that are mainly used as raw material for manufacturing bone void fillers. This specific morphology allows faster resorption of the ceramic material and accelerates bone formation.

Dense Blocks
Dense blocks are produced using high-pressure molding from highly pure HA powder. Controlled sintering ensures the density of the blocks of up to 97%. The exceptional consistency of the blocks allows machining and shaping with very tight tolerances.
