In the footnote to their announcement about the $1.5 m grant Allegra had this to say:
"Allegra is the global licensee to a composite biocompatible ceramic material known as Sr-HT-Gahnite
from The University of Sydney for veterinary and orthopaedic solutions. In preliminary studies, Sr-HTGahnite has duplicated the mechanical strength, elasticity and bioactivity of bone. Importantly, it is 100
times mechanically stronger than synthetic bone substitute materials in clinical use."
Does anyone know if Sr-HT-Gahnite is able to be used as a 3D printing material? Perhaps this is what the $1.5m grant is going to find out.
