Characterisation of selective laser sintered hydroxyapatite based biocomposite structures for bone replacement

Integration of the bone into the implant is highly desirable for the long-term performance of the implant. The development of a bone–implant interface is influenced by the surface morphology and roughness, surface wettability and porosity of the implants. This study characterizes these important pro...
