Definitions

  • the present invention concerns bioimplant elements to be used for life support or treatment in case of illness or accidents. That is, it is related to an element which is located at the connection between inside and outside a body to externally provide liquid medicine through a catheter, etc., a bioimplant element which is totally implanted in vivo to provide an injection port for injecting medicine deep inside the body, or a bioimplant element which is to replace or supplement damaged parts of hard structures such as bones.
  • the electrophoresis process can be applied only to metallic base materials with good electrical conductivity because it uses the base material itself as electrodes and also forms coating of apatite which is different from the apatite in vivo because it uses crystal apatite as the source material.
  • the present invention is the result of the concentrated efforts by its inventor to resolve the various problems described above, more specifically, the problem in (F) . It is intended to provide bioimplant elements of organic polymer base which have excellent biological compatibility, sufficient strength and design flexibility.
  • the bioimplant element pertaining to the present invention features hydroxyapatite coating formed on the surface of the base material in a practically saturated or supersaturated water solution of hydroxyapatite, more preferably in an artificial body fluid with the same ion type and concentration as the human blood plasma, where the base material is selected from polymers containing esters in the principal or/and side chains or polymers containing hydroxyl group in the side chains or/and at the end of the chain.
  • bioimplant element More specific characteristics of the said bioimplant element include the following.
  • the desirable thickness of hydroxyapatite is in the range of 3 - IOOIUI
  • the effective organic polymer containing esters in the principal chain can be selected from among allyl resi r oxybenzoyl polyester, polyacrylate, polybutylene terephthalate, polycarbonate or polyethylene terephthalate.
  • the effective organic polymer containing esters in the side chains can be selected from among AAS resin (acrylic ester-acrylonirile-stylrene copolymer) , cellulosic plastics such as cellulose acetate, cellulose butyrate and ethylene cellulose, ethylene- acrylic ester copolymer, acrylic ester-butadien-styrene copolymer, methacrylic resin, or vinyl acetate resin.
  • AAS resin acrylic ester-acrylonirile-stylrene copolymer
  • cellulosic plastics such as cellulose acetate, cellulose butyrate and ethylene cellulose, ethylene- acrylic ester copolymer, acrylic ester-butadien-styrene copolymer, methacrylic resin, or vinyl acetate resin.
  • the desirable organic polymer containing hydroxyl group in the side chains or/and at the end of the chain can be selected from epoxy resin, phenol resin, or polyvinyl alcohol.
  • Nonspecular surface of the base material is particularly effective.
  • a part of phosphate group or hydroxyl group in hydroxyapatite has been substituted by carbonic group.
  • CaO/SiO_ base glass powder has grain diameters in the range of 100 - 600 urn .
  • an organic polymer for the base material of the bioimplant element must be selected from polymers containing esters in the principal chain or/and the side chains or polymers containing hydroxyl group in the side chains or/and at the end of the chain in order to obtain sufficient bonding strength with hydroxyapatite for practical use.
  • the organic polymer containing esters in the principal chain can be selected from among allyl resin, oxybenzoyl polyester, polyacrylate, polybutylene terephthalate, polycarbonate or polyethylene terephthalate.
  • other polymers may be used satisfactorily for the purpose of the present invention as long as sufficient esters are contained in the principal chain.
  • the organic polymer containing esters in the side chains can be selected from among AAS resin (acrylic ester-acrylonitrile-styrene copolymer) , cellulosic plastics such as cellulose acetate, cellulose butyrate and ethylene cellulose, ethylene-vinylacetate-vinyl chloride copolymer, ethylene-vinyl chloride copolymer, methacrylic resin, or vinyl acetate resin.
  • AAS resin acrylic ester-acrylonitrile-styrene copolymer
  • cellulosic plastics such as cellulose acetate, cellulose butyrate and ethylene cellulose, ethylene-vinylacetate-vinyl chloride copolymer, ethylene-vinyl chloride copolymer, methacrylic resin, or vinyl acetate resin.
  • other polymers may be used satisfactorily for the purpose the present invention as long as sufficient esters are contained in the side chains.
  • the organic polymer containing hydroxyl group in the side chains or/and at the end of the chain can be selected from epoxy resin, phenol resin or polyvinyl alcohol, however, other organic polymers may be satisfactorily used for the purpose of the present invention as long as sufficient hydroxyl group is contained in the side chains or/and at the end of the chain .
  • polyvinyl alcohol In the case of polyvinyl alcohol, it must be in the partially bridged form so that it is insoluble in water. Otherwise its function as a bioimplant element cannot be achieved.
  • the desirable thickness of hydroxyapatite coating is in the range of 3-100z-m.
  • the thickness of coating is below 3,um it may possibly be eroded and eliminated while implanted in a living body.
  • it exceeds 100 zzm strains caused by the differences in expansion coefficients between the base material and hydroxyapatite against temperature and humidity changes tend to be excessive and as a consequence the hydroxyapatite coating becomes more susceptible to cracking and subsequent separation which develops from such cracks.
  • the increased time to formation of such thick coating of hydroxyapatite inflates the manufacturing costs, making the thickner coating unpracticable.
  • the preferable hydroxyapatite is that with a part of its phosphate or hydroxyl group substituted by carbonic group, because in such form it is closer to hydroxyapatite in a living body and has better biological compatibility.
  • the Ca0/Si0 base glass powder refers to the glass powder which contains CaO and i0 2 in the following ranges.
  • the preferred grain diameter of the glass powder is in the range of 100 - 600um. If it is below 100 xim, it is too small for sufficient amount of saturated or supersaturated water solution .of hydroxyapatite to be supplied between glass grains and the base material and the growth of the hydroxyapatite coating does not occur or is too slow to be practicable. If, on the other hand, it exceeds 600um, sufficient nuclei for growth are not formed on the surface of the base material and therefore the growth is too slow or the surface becomes nonuniform, making it unpracticable. In addition, it is desirable that more than 80% of the glass powder has grain diameters in the range of 100 - 600 xtm. If it is below 80%, the increase in grains having diameters not in the range of 100 - 600 m retards the growth of hydroxyapatite or totally prevents its growth.

  • Polyethylene base material in Reference 2 was prepared in the same conditions as those in Table 7 of Embodiment 2 in Tokkai Hei 2 (1990) - 25515. Ca0/Si0 2 base glass sheets were immersed in Solution (1) at intervals of 0.5mm along with the base material.

  • This element was implanted in a thighbone of a rabbit. It was removed after 10 weeks and the bonding conditions between the implant element and the bone were examined. It was observed that living tissue was totally united with the implant element.
  • hydroxyapatite exhibits excellent biological compatibility. Nevertheless, because of its low strength, its use for implant elements in the form of the sintered hydroxyapatite has been limited to the parts not subjected to large loads. While metallic base materials or processes of coating ceramics have been developed to overcome this difficulty, they have not been used for general purpoose implant elements because the materials are expensive or have poor moldability. Naturally it is ideal to coat organic polymers, which have much better moldability and are less expensive than other materials, with hydroxyapatite. However, this has not been practicable because the bonding strength with hydroxyapatite has not been sufficient.
  • the present invention creates bioimplant elements with bone-like hydroxyapatite coating on the surface of organic polymer base materials containing esters in the principal chain or/and the side chains or hydroxyl group in the side chains or/and at the end of the chain using practically saturated or supersaturated water solution of hydroxyapaties.
  • the bioimplant elements thus obtained have excellent biological compatibility, sufficient strength and design flexibility, and its significant contributions to medical field are expected.
