Microstructural characterization and interactions in Ti- and TiH2-hydroxyapatite vacuum sintered composites

Microstructural characterization and interactions in Ti- and TiH2-hydroxyapatite vacuum sintered composites

Titanium/hydroxyapatite (HAP) composites are candidate materials for biomedical applications as implants and hard tissue substitutes since they combine the good mechanical properties and biocompatibility of Ti with the excellent HAP bioactivity and osteointegration. In powder metallurgy processing o...
