NATICK – Rosies Base LLC, a start-up R&D company developing bio-compatible, durable, and cost-effective nano-structured alloys that are ideal for use in cutting-edge medical devices, today announced a research agreement with SpineCraft, a medical devices company focused on developing comprehensive spine surgery systems.
Rosies Base is the world’s only supplier of nanoTi, a titanium alloy created using a proprietary metallurgical rolling process that delivers ultra-fine-grained metal alloys that are thinner and stronger than standard alloys, and possess anti-microbial properties that resist the formation of biofilms on implanted devices.
The agreement with SpineCraft calls for the companies to investigate the compatibility and effectiveness of nanoTi in the manufacture of spinal implant rods.
