Composites matching the properties of human cortical bones: The design of porous titanium-zirconia (Ti-ZrO2) nanocomposites using polymethyl methacrylate powders
Bone-like low elastic modulus micro-porous titanium (Ti) and titanium-zirconia (Ti-ZrO2) nanocomposites were fabricated by a pressureless sintering process with biocompatible polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) powders as the pore-forming agents. A microstructural analysis revealed that the method can su...
