  • Abstract
    Hydroxyapatite/alumina/diopside ceramic composites were fabricated by hot-pressing. The hardness, fracture toughness and bending strength of the new fabricated composites were measured. The compositions of hydroxyapatite matrix ceramic composites were discussed by XRD and FT-IR analysis. Microstructures of the composites were studied on fracture surfaces. The bending strength and fracture toughness of 58 vol.% hydroxyapatite, 40 vol.% alumina and 2 vol.% diopside sample, were 200 MPa and 2.80 MPa m1/2, respectively.
