1. Viscosity:
The medium viscosity formulation allows it to be applied with controlled flow,
which is particularly useful in joint replacement surgeries like hip and knee
replacements.

2.
Radiopacity:
It contains radiopaque agents, which means it shows up clearly on X-rays. This
helps surgeons to see the positioning of the cement and the implant during and
after surgery.

3. Cementation:
It's primarily used for cementing prosthetic implants into
bone, ensuring stability and preventing loosening over time.

4.
Long Working Time:
It has a controlled setting time, providing enough working time for surgeons to
manipulate it during the procedure.

5.
Reduced Risk of Embolism:
Compared to other bone cements, it is formulated to reduce the risk of fat
embolism during application, a rare but serious complication.

6.
Strength:
It provides good mechanical properties, ensuring that the cemented implants
stay securely in place under the stresses of movement.

Common Uses:

·
Total Hip Replacement (THR)

·
Knee Replacements

·
Spinal Fixation

·
Fracture Fixation
(especially for fractures of the femur, pelvis, or spine)
