Effect of sintering profile on the densification behaviour of forsterite ceramics /Tan Soon Sien

Forsterite (Mg2SiO4) is well known to be potential biomedical implants due to its good mechanical properties compared to hydroxyapatite (HA). The fracture toughness of forsterite is exceptionally higher compared to hydroxyapatite (HA) and the values are close to a human femur bone. Several studies a...
