Production of polyhydroxybutyrate and hydroxyapatite (PHB/HA) composites for use as biomaterial
Abstract The composite materials using polyhydroxybutyrate as matrix and hydroxyapatite as reinforcement (PHB/HA) were produced by molding, using pressing at 100 MPa and 165 °C for 30 min. The amount of filler was varied from 0 to 20 wt% to evaluate the effect of the HA particles on mechanical prope...
