Abstract
One of the bone implant candidate materials that have similarities to the original bone is porous Hydroxyapatite (HA) based 3D bone replica. Most previous studies primarily focused on the manufacture of porous ceramics in a form that is still far from the original appearance of bone. Manufacturing the femur bone with a shape that resembles the original is expected to be closer to the application. The characteristic of the replica produced have a shrinkage range of 34,28–47.46 %, a porosity range of 18,89-37.75 %, a density range of 1.97-2,56 gr/ cm3, a bending strength range of 0.33-6,49 MPa, and pores sizes of 80-230 µm. Based on the findings, HA scaffolds for bone replicas were successfully created and incorporated in physical and chemical features.
