Evaluation of hydroxyapatite (HA) from waste eggshell strengthened with ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) by using injection molding process

This research presents the capability of the waste eggshell as a part of material improvement for the biomedical purpose. Hydroxyapatite ceramics (HA) has been investigated because of its excellent biocompatibility and tissue bioactivity properties. HA from the waste eggshell has been extracted unde...
