AB Background: This study describes a novel biomaterial consisting of a mixture of biphasic bioceramic obtained from waste generated by the sugar industry (Carbocal) and a medical-grade epoxy resin adhesive called LOCTITE® M31 CLTM. The objective was to demonstrate the possibility of coating non-bioactive and non-biodegradable metallic surfaces on implantable elements. Methods: After preparation, the mixture was applied to the surfaces of hip prostheses composed of two distinct materials: polyetherimide and grade 5 titanium. In both cases, adhesion tests produced favourable results. Additionally, cell cultures were conducted using human foetal osteoblastic cell lines (hFOB 1.19). Results: It was observed that the mixture did not affect the proliferation of bone cells. Conclusions: This composite material was found to promote the growth of bone cells, suggesting its potential for fostering bone tissue development.
