Nanosize Zr-doped carbonated chlorapatite (n-ZCCA) was developed as a novel bioceramic by a ball milling process. Results showed that the microstructural characteristics of the product were affected significantly by the degree of substitution and subsequent annealing at 800 degrees C for 1 h. In the...
