Abstract:B-type carbonate apatite (CA) substituting for phosphate ions, is the major inorganic components of vertebrate bones. CA is more biodegradable than HA and has been expected as a next generation biomaterial. We had reported that the polarized HA could promote bone healing. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of the electrically polarization on CA characterization. CA synthesized by wet method was sintered at various temperatures in carbon dioxide atmosphere. The TG measurement and polarizat… Show more
