"its better than CoC"

It's better than MOM. Can you extrapolate why you believe plastic is superior to COC? I'd argue COC is superior. Plastic is a foreign body with low mohs hardness. That means it produces the most wear particulate. Since you`re body cant absorb it, it attempts to segregate it in inflammatory pseudo tumors. Part of the foreign body reaction. Then it tries to retreat in muscle death and osteolysis then implant loosening 8 years later and you need a revision to a unit designed to prevent dislocation since your muscles are wrecked.

Now just Biolox COC produces unrecognizable unobsorbable particulate but much less which slows down this process.

However it goes through phase changes that increase the likelihood of shattering. But still looks superior.

This is where Ashok looks like he steps in to redevelop the AMC formula then switches to something harder. Silicon Nitride. Beyond looking like it solves the problem of phase changing that leads to shattering the particulate is bio-absorbable and easily eliminated removing the particulate problems and foreign body reactions. Looks like its so bio compatible it's easily assimilated into the bone matrix to increase bonding and decrease loosening. The built in antibacterial properties are the icing on the cake.

I think there's a reason the prototype looks like a SiNi COC. It's just the product of these people left alone. The kind of people that get excited about SiNi.

Seems like alot of competition tech. is coming out to try to mimic various aspects in an attempt to compete rather than adopt but it would be a hodge podge of various attempts to simulate something that would carry all of the properties that just pop out of the box with this stuff. Good luck on that. At best it looks to be over complicating the equation. I`m sure you could possibly fully simulate one of it's attributes at a time, I guess. Maybe.
