Impact of B2O3 and La2O3 addition on structural, mechanical and biological properties of hydroxyapatite

In this study, hydroxyapatite-B2O3-La2O3 composites (with ≤ 20 wt.% B2O3 and ≤ 2 wt.% La2O3) were synthesized via wet precipitation method and calcined at 1100 °C for 1 h. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis revealed the existence of the pure hydroxyapatite (HA) phase with high crystallinity. Character...
