Abstract:
An improved orthopaedic cement of the type used to, e. g. position and hold prosthetic devices in place within bone cavities after surgical repair of the bone system. The cement is characterized by markedly increased toughness and resistance to fracture due to the rubbery, or elastomeric, nature of the included polyacrylate resin phase.
