Microstructure, Mechanical Properties and in vitro Biological Behavior of Silicon Nitride Ceramics
The bioinert surface of silicon nitride ceramics led us to investigate the additions of SiO2, CaO and Al2O3 in order to aid the liquid phase sintering and improve the mechanical properties and biological behavior of the final materials. The sintered materials reached ca. 97% of theoretical density a...
