NEW YORK, April 22, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- About Medical Ceramics
Medical ceramics find extensive use in the Medical sector in a variety of applications such as treatment of cancer and related diseases, joint and hip reconstruction, and production of implantable electronic devices. These inorganic and nonmetallic materials are also being used worldwide in various dental and orthopedic applications, and in the manufacture of surgical and diagnostic instruments. On the basis of materials used, these ceramics can be classified into three: bioinert, bioactive, and bioresorbable. Bioinert ceramics such as aluminum oxide, zirconium oxide, silica oxide, and titanium oxide are the most commonly used ceramics in the Medical sector. In recent years, however, manufacturers have been leaning toward bioactive ceramics such as bio-glass. Hydroxyapatite, a bioresorbable ceramic, has also been gaining popularity among market players over the last few years.
TechNavio's analysts forecast the Global Medical Ceramics market to grow at a CAGR of 6.82 percent over the period 2014-2019.
