Abstract

Abstract: In this work, diopside was introduced in hydroxyapatite matrix as a sintering aid and hydroxyapatite/diopside ceramic composites were fabricated by uniaxial hot-pressing. The biological activity of hydroxyapatite/diopside ceramic composites in simulated body fluid was assessed by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), thin-film X-ray diffraction (TF-XRD) and electron-probe micro analysis (EPMA). SEM micrographs showed an obvious bright mineral layer to form on the soaked composite surface, and the layer may be hydroxyapatite or NaCl crystals. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

Abstract

Abstract: Al2O3/diopside ceramic composites with good mechanical properties were prepared by uniaxial hot-pressing and their biological activity in simulated body fluid was studied by SEM, XRD, FT-IR and EPMA. SEM micrographs showed a lath-like apatite layer to form on the soaked composite surface, whose good biological activity may be of some promise for biomedical application. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
