SINTERING BEHAVIOUR OF FORSTERITE-DOPED HYDROXYAPATITE CERAMICS

In this present work, the effect of forsterite addition on the thermal stability, microstructure and mechanical properties of hydroxyapatite was investigated. Four different forsterite-doped hydroxyapatite (HA-F) compositions were used in this study ranging from 5, 10 and 20 wt.% forsterite. The HA-...
