STTR Phase I: Variable Diameter Fiber Reinforced Biopolymers for Minimally Invasive Orthopedic Implants

这个小型企业技术转让（STTR）第一阶段项目建议开发一种用于髋关节置换术的新型复合材料。该复合材料包括骨水泥中的可变直径陶瓷纤维。该项目的商业应用将在骨科领域。微创骨科植入物的使用，使用具有高强度和抗应力的可注射聚合物基生物材料，将为治疗骨科骨折和疾病提供一种新方法。

This Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) Phase I project proposes to develop a new composite to be used in hip replacements. The composite includes variable diameter ceramic fibers in bone cement. The commercial application of this project will be in the field of orthopedics . The use of minimally invasive orthopedic implants, using injectable, polymer based biomaterials with high strength and stress resistance, will offer a new approach to treating orthopedic fractures and ailments.
