Did Zimmer not contract with Dr. Bal to aid them in designing a hip implant over a decade before he became CEO of Sintx? Did Sintx not do the same thing years before Dr. Bal became CEO? Is that not what Dr Bal is doing here in using Zimmer Biomets IP along with Sintx, developing a hip implant for both companies? If successful could the studies involving Sintx and Zimmer Biomet IP not be submitted to the FDA once all necessary testing and trials are completed? Are you still going to claim that Zimmer Biomet is not a stakeholder or interested party in this despite its participation in testing?

ARTHROPLASTY (Silicon Nitride)
Renewed interest in silicon nitride’s use as
a femoral head and acetabular cup.

If you are going to ask, whats possibly delayed a hip implant between these two companies? Could it have something to do with Si3n4's modulus of elasticity? If thats been a cause of the delay, maybe Sintx collaboration with 3DCERAM SINTO INC. is why theres renewed interest in it? 3D printing will allow Sintx to reduce Si3n4's modulus of elasticity and thus 3D print porous femoral stems that may have reduced the modulus of elasticity enough for the product to move forward? It will also reduce manufacturing costs.

Silicon Nitride, a Close to Ideal Ceramic Material for Medical Application

However, as advantageous as the mechanical, tribological, chemical and biological properties of silicon nitride are, the comparatively high modulus of elasticity poses a challenge for the application of load-bearing stems for arthroplastic implants.

To address this issue, modern ceramic processing techniques such as additive manufacturing may be enlisted to produce highly porous devices with a substantially reduced modulus of elasticity.

3DCERAM SINTO INC. and SINTX TECHNOLOGIES ANNOUNCE COLLABORATION TO DEVELOP MATERIALS AND TECHNOLOGIES FOR ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING OF ADVANCED CERAMICS

We are excited about the possibilities of creating a silicon nitride-based resin for the biomedical market. With interest in silicon nitride medical devices continuing to grow rapidly, we believe 3D printed silicon nitride devices will play a major role in the future of medical and technical segments in which we participate,” said Dr. Sonny Bal, CEO of SINTX Technologies. “We believe that SINTX’s resin formulation and densification expertise, combined with 3DCeram’s production scale printers, will provide the market with components of superior quality.”
