Abstract:Hydroxyapatite (HA), beta-tricalcium phosphate and bioactive glasses are commonly used as reabsorbable biomaterials, mainly in orthopaedics and dentistry. The performance of each material depends on many factors, in particular, on their chemical and phase composition, microstructure, granule size and pore volume. For this reason, it is important to have a full characterization that allows correlating these properties with the material biological behaviour.In this work, three commercial samples of materials cur… Show more
