  • Hydroxyapatite (HAp) for Biomedical Applications

    Edited by Michael Mucalo ...
    Series series Woodhead Publishing Series in Biomaterials
    Hydroxyapatite in the form of hydroxycarbonate apatite is the principal mineral component of bone tissue in mammals. In Bioceramics, it is classed as a bioactive material, which means bone tissue grows directly on it when placed in apposition without intervening fibrous tissue. Hydroxyapatite is hence commonly used as bone grafts, fillers and as coatings for metal implants. This important book ... Read more
