OXPEKK ® BioFlex™ smart materials are composed of multiple layers of continuous carbon fibers and thermoplastic OXPEKK® resin. The fibers are orientated within the part, so that sitffness is defined by firber direction. The isotropic nature of metallic and conventional polymeric materials are overcome, thus opening a new era of dynamic stabilization and motion preservation. To date orthopedic implant design engineers have relied upon complex mechanical assemblies and articulting surfaces in order to preserve motion. OXPEKK® Bioflex™ introduces a new and dynamic tool for the orthopedic OEM's via the combination of smart materials and established design techniques. OXPEKK® Bioflex™ can be supplied in oriented laminated plates of thickness 1 - 10mm up to 60cm square, semi-finished thermoformed 3D parts waterjet cut and hot-formed from oriented plates and solid unidirectional rods. Common orientations include Cross-Ply (0/90), Unidirectional, Quasi-Isotropic (-45/0/45/90), Torsional-Ply (-45/45). Parts can be readily machined on conventional equipment such as is used for other carbon fiber composites. OXPEKK® Bioflex™ is available for long-term implants with an executed supply agreement.
