Mysterium is a new biocompatible PVD coating applied to surgical stainless steel, with no corrupting effect on the metal.
Since its introduction to the medical device industry in the late 1980's Physical Vapour Deposition (PVD) has become widely used to deposit wear resistant, thin film coatings onto medical devices (including heart pacemakers, surgical instruments, and orthopaedic implants).
The main value in PVD technology rests in the ability to modify the surface properties of a device without changing the underlying materials properties and biomechanical functionality.
