Abstract

The magnesium composites containing hydroxyapatite (HA) particles were synthesized. Unreacted Mg/HA composites were successfully fabricated by extruding the two component powders. The Young’s modulus and strength of the extruded composites were lower than that of extruded magnesium, whereas the damping capacity of the composite was superior to that of extruded magnesium over the entire strain range examined. Microstructural observation of the composite containing 10 vol%HA revealed that HA agglomerates with the size of 10–15 µm were formed during the fabrication. The mechanical properties of the composites were closely associated with the HA agglomeration.
