    Recently, Solvay announced the launch of the new 30% carbon fiber reinforced, implantable device-permeable polyetheretherketone Zeniva ZA-600 CF30 PEEK.


    Zeniva ZA-600 CF30 PEEK is twice as strong as unmodified PEEK, making it an excellent choice
    for structural, load-bearing and implantable medical devices for spine, hip and knee replacements.
    The material has a modulus similar to that of cortical bone, which means that, unlike metal used for implanted devices, it minimizes the impact
    of implanted devices on bone density by maintaining normal stress on surrounding bone tissue.
    Its excellent quality allows designers to reduce the size of implantable devices and reduce the amount of
    material implanted.
    In addition, Zeniva ZA-600 CF30 polymer also has excellent creep resistance and can withstand long-term fatigue stress
    .
