  • Great news Gentleman! Please do keep us informed!
  • Also, been reading up on DLC ( Diamon Like Carbon) coatings. The coating is biocompatible, inert and impermeable. Diamond is the hardest substance on earth.
  • @glims just read that article thanks! CBMA looks promising! Do you know how ressistant it is to stress/pressure? How would it fair in a high impact area such as a finger? To what degree would this new hydro gel expand once in the finger? Exciting stuff bro!
  • @glims I agree, I have the same concern as im not sure how the body will react if it thinks the implant is bone. And Zirconium bio ceramic is as close to bone as it gets. But the ceramic is a mixture of a few different elements and may be worth look at. I thought it could shatter easily but according to tests its pretty…
  • thats excellent you are doing these experiments! thats how true pioneers start, not in some lab but through trial and error. what polymer are you working with? There are certain polymers current implant experts reccomend above others for biocompatibility. The problem is does the atrp process involve heat? Remember the…
  • The main issue is the coating. Many of us really do want the magnet but the coatings on offer are just not always safe. Our body chemicals have a way of eating them away. What we need is a coating that is bioinert, biocompatible, fracture resisstant and one that can be applied without heat, as neodymium looses its magnetic…
