SINTX Technologies Says Peer-Reviewed Study Validates Silicon Nitride Coatings On CFR-PEKK Trauma Plates, Expanding Biomaterial Platform Into Hybrid Polymer-Carbon-Ceramic Constructs

SINTX Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:SINT) ("SINTX" or the "Company"), an advanced ceramics innovator specializing in silicon nitride (Si₃N₄) for musculoskeletal applications, today announced the publication of a peer-reviewed study in the Journal of the Mechanical Behavior of Biomedical Materials. The study validates the use of silicon nitride (Si₃N₄) surface coatings on carbon fiber–reinforced polyetherketoneketone (CFR-PEKK) trauma plates—marking a significant expansion of SINTX's biomaterial platform into additively-manufactured polymer-carbon-ceramic constructs.

The research, supported by the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases (NIAMS) of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) (Award R41AR082266), was conducted in partnership with Prof. Steven Kurtz's Implant Research Center at Drexel University's School of Biomedical Engineering, Science, and Health Systems.
