β¦ Synopsis
This paper studies the effect of composite composition on the electrical properties of BaTiO 3 -hydroxyapatite (HA) composites and examines the high temperature electrical properties of pure HA. At least 80% volume of BaTiO 3 was needed for the composites to exhibit any stress-induced piezoelectric potential. At elevated temperatures, pure HA exhibits an increase in real part of conductivity and permittivity. The increased ionic conductivity at elevated temperatures can be used to manufacture polarised HA bioceramics with permanent surface charges as polarised HA exhibited a depolarisation current at elevated temperatures.

Degradation of three types of sintered calcium phosphate ceramic spheres was investigated in vitro at low pH conditions (LPC) and in an in vivo model, that is, injection into a mouse peritoneal cavity. Degradation was observed under both conditions. The rate of degradation depended on the type of ce
