| Abstract |
Ceramic slips with powder loadings in the range of 80-140 wt% were used to investigate
the effect of slip loading on the physical and mechanical properties of open pore HA/TCP
bioceramics. The results indicated that increasing the slip loading had an effect on the properties of
the samples. The average apparent density, the work of fracture and compressive strength all
increased with slip loading. In contrast, the effect of increasing slip loading on the four-point bending
strength was not significant. |
