What is ISO 6474-2- Composite materials based on a high-purity alumina matrix about?
ISO 6474 is an international standard that discusses Ceramic materials for surgical implants . ISO 6474-2 provides the best industry guidance on c omposite materials based on a high-purity alumina matrix with zirconia reinforcement for surgical implants to standardize their quality and performance.
ISO 6474-2 is the second part of a multi-part series that specifies the characteristics of, and corresponding test methods for bio-stable ceramic-bone-substitute material based on a zirconia-reinforced, high-purity alumina matrix composite for use as bone spacers, bone replacements, and components in orthopaedic joint prostheses. ISO 6474-2 is intended for composite materials which are based on an alumina matrix, that is alumina as the dominating phase in the composite with a mass fraction of >60 %, similar to the material described.
