New Challenges in the Sintering of HA/ZrO2 Composites

Abstract

The search for improved the human living standards and longevity in recent decades has led to a strong development of areas related to life sciences. With increasing life expectancy of the population, the constant appeal for the development of materials to be used clinically in the replacement and regeneration of damaged tissues or organs has also allowed the growth of the multidisciplinary field of biomaterials, which is based on the combination of life sciences with materials science and engineering.
