Characterisation of metallic powders for your medical devices

Metal powders have a special place in the manufacture of medical devices. 

Indeed, metal powders such as hydroxyapatite (HAP) can be used for the manufacture of surgical implants as a filling material. Similarly, metallic powders can be used for the additive synthesis of implants requiring a complex technical structure.

Therefore, characterising the physico-chemical properties and quality of your metal powders is an essential step in the control and manufacture of medical devices.
