#composites, #orthopedics, #medicaldevices, #hipreplacement, #fibers, #resins Hello everyone, I’m back for my first post in 2026.  I hope everyone had a great holiday and is ready to start this year strong – I know I am.  I’m gong to diverge a bit from the sustainability rant that I have been on for the last several months and talk a bit about composites in orthopedics and how composite materials are replacing metals – especially titanium – in orthopedics, both the implanted
