- the invention relates to a bioactive composite material for prosthetic purposes, a process for its production and the use of this composite material or the application of this production process for the treatment of metallic and / or ceramic prostheses or prosthesis parts.
- Bioactive bone substitute materials essentially consist of inorganic chemical materials, such as bio glasses, bio glass ceramics, tricalcium phosphate ceramics, apatites, etc.
- Such materials generally have high compressive strength values, but they all - due to their characteristic "brittleness" - all have the common disadvantage that they can only be subjected to extremely low levels of tension, bending or torsion.
- the application possibilities of these materials as compact prosthesis materials are subject to considerable restrictions.
- a soft tissue capsule At the interface between the bony tissue and the metallic implant, a soft tissue capsule generally forms - even in the case of what is known as bio-inert material - which prevents a force-locking connection between the bone bed and the implant.
- the implant surface In order to achieve a connection between the bone and the implant, the implant surface must be structured. The structuring is provided in the form of recesses, undercuts, grooves, but also in the form of pores or grooves. In spite of the positive connection achieved, the problem of a physiologically correct transfer of force from the bone to the prosthesis and vice versa as a result of the connective tissue layer occurring at the interface is not solved.

Abstract
Le matériau composite pour prothèses se compose d'un constituant métallique (2), par exemple du titane, et d'un matériau bioactif (3), par exemple de la vitro-céramique biocompatible. Le matériau bioactif (3) présente une taille de particules comprise entre 5 et 1000 mum dans la phase métallique (2). Le matériau composite est fabriqué dans une chambre de réaction (5) encapsulée de telle manière qu'un mélange de départ (4) pulvérulent ou particulaire intimement mélangé est soumis à un processus de compression isostatique, éventuellement en utilisant une température élevée. Les paramètres du processus, à savoir compression, température, et durée, peuvent être sélectionnés de manière librement variable avec de larges tolérances. La chambre de réaction (5) est faite d'un récipient (6) du type capsule, dans lequel on a préalablement fait le vide par l'intermédiaire d'une ouverture de capsule (6a) et qui a été ensuite hermétiquement refermé. Le choix du verre utilisé pour le récipient en verre (6) doit répondre à des exigences particulières. Pour des besoins spécifiques, un encapsulage métallique peut également être prévu. Des prothèse métalliques peuvent présenter dans leurs régions de surface des évidements dans lesquels le matériau composite (1) est inséré avec précision. La prothèse ainsi garnie peut alors être à nouveau introduite dans un récipient du type capsule en métal ou en verre et soumise à un processus de compression hydrostatique. Ainsi, les corps en matériau composite bioactif insérés sont fermement soudés. Le procédé convient également pour le revêtement d'un implant métallique ou en céramique. A cet effet, l'implant est introduit dans une capsule qui est ensuite enrobée de mélange de départ (4) pulvérulent, après quoi on y fait le vide. La compression hydrostatique permet l'adhérence du matériau composite en tant que matériau de revêtement.The composite material for prostheses consists of a metallic component (2), for example titanium, and a bioactive material (3), for example biocompatible glass ceramic. The bioactive material (3) has a particle size of between 5 and 1000 μm in the metallic phase (2). The composite material is produced in an encapsulated reaction chamber (5) in such a way that an intimately mixed powder or particulate starting mixture (4) is subjected to an isostatic compression process, possibly using an elevated temperature. The process parameters, namely compression, temperature, and duration, can be freely selected with wide tolerances. The reaction chamber (5) is made of a container (6) of the capsule type, in which a vacuum has been previously made by means of a capsule opening (6a) and which has then been hermetically closed. The choice of glass used for the glass container (6) must meet specific requirements. For specific needs, metal encapsulation can also be provided. Metal prostheses can have recesses in their surface regions into which the composite material (1) is inserted with precision. The prosthesis thus filled can then be again introduced into a container of the metal or glass capsule type and subjected to a hydrostatic compression process. Thus, the bodies of bioactive composite material inserted are firmly welded. The method is also suitable for coating a metal or ceramic implant. For this purpose, the implant is introduced into a capsule which is then coated with powdery starting mixture (4), after which a vacuum is created there. Hydrostatic compression allows the adhesion of the composite material as a coating material.
