Abstract
In the present work, alumina and diopside were introduced in hydroxyapatite matrix, and hydroxyapatite/Al2O3/diopside ceramic composites with good mechanical properties were fabricated by uniaxial hot pressing. The behaviours of hydroxyapatite/Al2O3/diopside ceramic composites in simulated body fluid were studied by SEM, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and electron probe microanalyser. Scanning electron microscopy images showed an obvious mineral layer formed on the soaked composite surface, which indicated that the introduction of Al2O3 and diopside in hydroxyapatite matrix could not only improve the strength and toughness of the composites but also maintain its ability to precipitate an apatite layer.
