Comparative Study On The Sintering Of Calcium Phosphate Ceramic By Conventional And Microwave Sintering

Sintering of calcium phosphate bioceramic were performed using microwave and conventional furnaces. The calcium phosphate precursor was used as raw material powder. Sintering of biphasic calcium phosphate (B'Cl") was successful using both sintering methods. The precursor powder was char...
