Plasma treatment for improved biointegration of implants
The world's population is increasing and with it comes the need for smart and safe medical implants. The project will further develop unique processes and equipment to contribute to faster and better healing.
The project will develop unique processes and equipment for implants based on atmospheric plasma.
The intention is to develop fine cleaning and activation processes based on atmospheric plasma. These will result in improved adhesion between the implant and nanohydroxyapatite coating, without degrading the materials.
The processes are expected to replace wet chemical processes and result in improved durability and working environment, while achieving good cleaning and high process speed.
The S0741 - CAIPIRENHA project has received funding from the Swedish VINNOVA and the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action through Eureka and the Clusters programme and SMART Cluster.
