Effect of Sintering Temperature on Mechanical Properties of Mg – HA Composites

  • TECHNICAL INFORMATION
  • Published:
Metal Science and Heat Treatment Aims and scope

Mg – HA (magnesium-hydroxyapatite) composites obtained by powder metallurgy and subjected to sintering at three different temperatures and subsequent hot extrusion for making orthopedic implants are studied. The relative density, the hardness and the properties after tensile and impact tests are determined with the use of optical and scanning electron microscopy.
