Bioactive glass-ceramic is used as a replacement material for bone tissue due to its compatibility, bioactivity, and the ability form crystallized hydroxyapatite layer, which similar in composition structure inorganic component of mineral phase. In this paper, bioglass-ceramic was toughened using zirconia improve mechanical behaviour (i.e. crack opening dsplacement fracture toughness). The toug...

Hydroxyapatite (HA) and bioglass (BG) ceramics have become of prime importance in bone tissue engineering. Besides the appropriate composition, microstructure replacement plays a crucial role. In present work, particle composites functionally graded material (FGM) based on HA BG prepared by electrophoretic deposition were thoroughly characterised terms preparation method, sintering process, pha...
