High Purity Monoclinic Zirconia for Surgical Cements. At Luxfer MEL Technologies we provide a high purity grade of zirconium oxide specifically designed as a contrast agent for surgical cement applications where high levels of radio-opacity are required. When compared to barium sulphate, zirconia generally: - Shows significantly higher radio-opacity - Is less soluble (by around 100X) - Has less effect on the mechanical properties of the cement Learn more about our high purity monoclinic zirconia for surgical cements here https://lnkd.in/eJ2by8dV
