A Study on the Sintering Of HAp Sputtering Target Material for Biomedical Applications
نویسندگان
چکیده
Using the spark plasma sintering (SPS) method, hydroxyapatite (HAp) material was densified using a hydroxyapatite powder (RND Korea, 45 μm, purity 98 +%). The HAp was nearly completely dense with a relative density of up to 97 % after the simultaneous application of 60 MPa of pressure and about 30 minutes of electric current without significant change in the grain size. The average grain size of HAp that was produced through SPS was approximately 13.2 μm. The hardness and fracture toughness of the HAp sintered-body at 1200 °C were 253 ± 0.5 kg/mm 2 and 0.48 ± 0.02 MPam 1/2 .

Ultrafine hydroxyapatite (HAp) powders with crystallite size in the range of 10-90 nm were synthesized by chemical precipitation process using Ca(OH)2 and H3PO4 solutions as starting materials. Molar ratio of Ca/P=1.68 was kept constant throughout the process and alkaline condition for the reaction was maintained using ammonium hydroxide. The role of raw material concentration on HAp crystallit...

متن کاملSpark Plasma Sintered Hydroxyapatite – Zirconia Composites: Structural and Mechanical Properties
Hydroxyapatite (Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2) (HAp) is a very attractive material for human tissue implantation, beacuse it makes up ~69% of the weight of bone [1]. Unfortunately HAp posses low mechanical properties (strength, fracture toughness), which is a barrier to its applications in load-bearing situations [2]. The mechanical properties of HAp composites, is based on the synthesis of composites and th...
متن کاملControl of bisphosphonate release using hydroxyapatite granules.
The efficacy of hydroxyapatite (HAp) as a carrier was investigated to establish a method of local administration of bisphosphonates (Bps), which has currently been administered systemically. HAp granules (300-500 microm in size) with different physicochemical features were prepared by altering the sintering temperature. To ascertain the physicochemical properties of the HAp granules, their crys...
