Abstract
Hydroxyapatite (HAP) bio-composites play a prominent role in addressing the reparative and replacement needs of human bone and dental tissues. Despite the suboptimal mechanical characteristics inherent in pure HAP, strength and durability enhancements have been achieved by incorporating various alloys and materials. The provided study delves into the radiation shielding and mechanical attributes of Fe2O3-reinforced HAP composites intended for use as implants, featuring Fe2O3 concentrations at 0.0, 2.5, 5.0, and 7.5 wt%. In addition, by leveraging the robust FLUKA Monte Carlo simulation code, the study explores the composites' response to the magnetic field. The findings suggest that augmenting the Fe2O3 content improves radiation shielding and mechanical properties in the chosen samples. Furthermore, in the absence of a magnetic field, the particles' spatial distribution (contour curves) exhibits symmetry along the X-axis. Nonetheless, a discernible pattern becomes apparent upon exposure to a magnetic field of Bx = 5 micro Tesla. The data extracted from this article can be used for medical and therapeutic applications and subsequent studies.
