Composite of Hydroxyapatite-Photopolymer : A Potential Material for Human Bone Restoration

<p>Human bone is bio-structure with complex geometry and shape with its tensile strength is about 124-174 MPa (parallel test) and 49 MPa (normal test). The human bone consists of 69% hydroxyapatite (HA) and the rest are organic materials and water. Thus HA is counted as a dominant material in...

Description
Summary:<p>Human bone is bio-structure with complex geometry and shape with its tensile strength is about 124-174 MPa (parallel test) and 49 MPa (normal test). The human bone consists of 69% hydroxyapatite (HA) and the rest are organic materials and water. Thus HA is counted as a dominant material in the human bone. Since HA is bioceramic, it is also considered as a bioactive and biocompatible material with 1300's &deg
