The Effects of Sintering Temperature on Densification and Mechanical Properties of Hydroxyapatite/Sodium Alginate Biocomposites
Hydroxyapatite (HA) has been studied for their excellent performances which are suitable for use in bone defects or regeneration of bone. Hydroxyapatite (HA) has poor mechanical properties which make it limited used in a load bearing area. In this case, sodium alginate (SA) was used to be mixed with...
