Zusammenfassung:An essential requirement for any implant is that it should not fracture in use. This requirement is particularly severe in the application of ceramics, which are brittle materials, and hence the intrinsic propensity for catastrophic fracture must be rigorously controlled. Consequently, it is essential that the use of brittle materials in the body is well supported by adequate and meaningful strength data.
