Morphology and mechanical properties fabricated from Ti, Nb and HA by powder metallurgy method

Hydroxyapatite (HA) is a bioactive ceramic material with poor mechanical properties which hinders its application in bone implant. However, HA has a similar structure to bone and can promote the growth of natural tissues. Combining the low modulus β-type Titanium (Ti) based alloy (e.g:Ti-40Nb) which...
