| Abstract Scope |
In this study, akermanite has been synthesized by ball milling technique with subsequent heat treatment of talc, CaCo3 and SiO2 Powders. The results showed that akermanite form through a series of reactions and formation of some intermediate compounds. The produced powder has been uniaxially pressed and the sintered at various temperatures. The mechanical properties of the samples have been evaluated. The produced akermanite samples were soaked in SBF to investigate the bioactivity of the specimens. The results showed that the produced akermanite has the apatite formation ability on its surface and can be a good candidate for biomedical applications. |
