This paper reports on the effects of HAP addition and sintering temperature on the microstructure and properties of the F-75/HAP composites fabricated by powder metallurgy. Co-Cr-Mo (F-75) is used in orthopedics because of its excellent biocompatibility when implanted to human or animal body. Hydrox...
