Development of Triphasic Calcium Phosphate–Carbon Nanotubes (HA/TCP-CNT) Composite: A Preliminary Study

Abstract: Triphasic calcium phosphate, composed of a more stable phase hydroxyapatite (HA) and highly soluble tricalcium phosphates (α- and β-TCP) has been synthesized through hydrothermal method. In the present work, an in-situ method to disperse 1wt% multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) within HA/TCP powder has been used in order to develop HA/TCP-CNTs composite. XRD results confirmed the formation of HA, α-TCP and β-TCP in both as-prepared powder and composite samples. The graphite peaks appeared in the composite samp… Show more

“…This indicated that the BCP ceramics interacted strongly with the SBF. The reabsorption behaviour was highly dependent on the β-TCP/HA ratio, the higher β-TCP/HA ratio, the greater reabsorption and surface properties appear to exert the greatest influence on reabsorption [38]. Figure 7d shows a thin CaP layer partially covering on the surface because the reabsorption was less pronounced (lower β-TCP/HA ratio).…”

“…The reduction of densification in the HA ceramics causes slower grain growth and an average grain size over 0.4 µm is obtained [37]. The mean HV value of the HA800 (4.86 ± 0.19 GPa) is considerably higher than for the conventionally sintered samples (1.98 GPa) at lower temperature [38]. Figure 6 shows the SEM images of cross sections of the HA samples after soaking in SBF for 7 days.…”

“…Generally, the sintered component of HA/Ti is formed in the secondary phase [41][42][43][44]. Figures 8 to 10 show that the samples were converted into a new phase after sintering at 1200 o C. The amount of titanium in the mixture affected the peak intensity [45], and HA decomposed and transformed into a secondary-phase substance, such as tetracalcium phosphate and tricalcium phosphate [46].…”

“…Hydroxyapatite (HA) and titanium are key elements in the development of medical components [7]. HA or [Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2] is a calcium phosphate ceramics currently used as a bioactive material for dental and orthopedic applications [8]. Its composition and structure is similar to those of bone, but with poor mechanical properties.…”
