Brain-computer interface PEEK housing/parts
Driven by the dual innovation of neural decoding technology and bioelectronic fusion, brain-computer interface technology has broken through the physical boundaries of traditional human-computer interaction, built a dynamic closed loop between the cerebral cortex and digital systems, and made breakthroughs in clinical scenarios such as motor function reconstruction and diagnosis and treatment of consciousness disorders, marking that human beings are moving from physical enhancement to the era of true biological intelligence integration.
In this field, Junhua relies on its profound heritage in AKSOPEEK implant-grade PEEK materials to inject new vitality into the development of brain-computer interface technology and promote continuous breakthroughs and upgrades in technology.
Brain-computer interface technology: ushering in a new era of human-computer interaction
Brain-Computer Interface (BCI), also known as brain-computer interaction, is a new real-time communication and control system built between the biological brain and external devices or the environment, realizing the direct interaction between the brain and external devices, and users can control special computer equipment through thoughts.
In recent years, brain-computer interface technology has made great strides. From the initial non-invasive brain-computer interface, it has developed to today’s semi-invasive, invasive brain-computer interface, implanting electrodes into the cerebral cortex, and the accuracy and reliability of the technology have been continuously improved. However, brain-computer interface technology also faces many challenges in the development process, among which how to reduce damage to brain tissue under the premise of ensuring signal quality has become one of the key issues.
In this context, Junhua provides important support for the development of biohybrid neural brain-computer interfaces with its advantages in the application of PEEK materials, improves the quality of life of patients, expands the interaction between humans and machines, and creates greater value for society.
AKSOPEEK: Explorer of domestic medical-grade PEEK materials
AKSOPEEK has many excellent properties that make it an ideal implant-grade material in the medical field.
Biocompatibility: AKSOPEEK has passed a number of biological certifications, is non-toxic, non-cytotoxic, non-mutagenic, non-carcinogenic and non-allergic, significantly reducing the risk of rejection and postoperative complications, and has excellent histocompatibility with the human body.
Lightweight: AKSOPEEK has a higher specific strength, lighter weight, and more adaptable compared to traditional metal implant materials.
Good mechanical properties: The elastic modulus is similar to that of human bones, with high strength, rigidity, fatigue resistance, and creep resistance, which can provide reliable support and protection for internal circuits and components, and effectively resist external shocks and pressures.
Chemical corrosion resistance: It can withstand a variety of solvents except strong acids, alkalis and highly oxidizing solutions at room temperature, and is resistant to hydrolysis, which can maintain stable performance for a long time in a complex human physiological environment and extend the service life of implanted devices.
Moisture and heat resistance: It can maintain mechanical properties and chemical stability at high temperatures, and can be sterilized at high temperatures, ensuring the safety and reliability of the device in different environments, while poor thermal conductivity and improving comfort after implantation.
X-ray translucency: X-ray penetration, radiation resistance, no artifacts during CT scan or MRI after surgery, which is convenient for doctors to follow up and observe the tissue around the implant, detect and deal with problems in time.
Processability: The shape can be customized according to the specific needs of the patient, better adapting to different anatomical structures and surgical requirements, and improving the accuracy and fit of implantation.
Electrical performance: AKSOPEEK’s pure material has good electrical insulation, which can effectively protect equipment and the human body without affecting the accurate transmission of signals.
Junhua Medical has been deeply involved in the field of PEEK medical applications for 18 years and has successfully developed AKSOPEEK series of medical implant materials.

Inject new impetus into the development of brain-computer interfaces
Design freedom: Compared with traditional metal implant materials, AKSOPEEK has higher specific strength, stronger plasticity and adaptability, and has become an ideal choice for the storage and protection of brain-computer interface components with its advantages in material performance and customization, providing more space and more flexible options for the implantation of brain-computer interface devices, and helping the wide application of brain-computer interface technology in medical, rehabilitation and other fields.
Safety and stability: The excellent properties of PEEK material provide good protection for brain-computer interface devices, and the elastic modulus is similar to that of human bones, reducing the risk of damage during the implantation process, reducing compression and damage to surrounding brain tissue, and maintaining stability and reliability in long-term use. Its good biocompatibility can reduce the inflammatory response around the implant, which is conducive to the long-term normal operation of brain-computer interface devices, ensuring the safety of patients and the stable operation of the equipment.
Integration and innovation: Junhua’s expertise and experience in the field of implantable-grade PEEK materials, combined with brain-computer interface technology, are expected to promote the deep integration and innovation of the two, and jointly develop safer, more efficient and accurate brain-computer interface products, such as developing new electrodes or sensors based on PEEK materials, and optimizing the implantation method and fixation method of brain-computer interface devices.
In the medical field, brain-computer interface technology has brought new hope and ways for paralyzed patients to restore motor function and treat neurological diseases. For example, paralyzed patients can use brain-controlled robotic arms to complete various actions through brain-computer interface technology, which greatly improves their ability to take care of themselves.
In the future, with the continuous development and application of brain-computer interface technology, Junhua’s AKSOPEEK materials are expected to be more widely used in the field of brain-computer interfaces, making greater contributions to human health and scientific and technological progress.
