For load-bearing calcium-phosphate biomaterials, it is important to understand the relative contributions of direct physical-chemical bonding vs. mechanical interlocking to interfacial strength. In the limit of a perfectly smooth hydroxyapatite (HA) surface, a tensile test of the bone-HA interface a

Abstract
Tensile strength of the interface between hydroxyapatite (HA) and bone was tested. Scanning electron microscopy was used to observe the tensile failure mode and the morphological change of hydroxyapatite ceramic surface in bone. The porosity of hydroxyapatite is 14% and pore size less than 2 ΞΌm. After 2 weeks of implantation, the tensile strength of the interface is 0.72 MPa. After 4, 8, and 16 weeks, the average tensile strength stayed at 1.5 MPa. SEM showed that tensile failure occurred at the HAβbone interface at the second week, but after 4 weeks, the failure occurred between HA particles within the bulk, and not at the HAβbone interface. Calcified tissue was directly deposited on the HA ceramic surface and exits also in the micropores. Near the interface, sintered necks among HA ceramic particles were subjected to biodegradation.

A method of testing the tensile strength of the porcelain-gold bond has been developed. Tensile strengths of the bond are improved primarily by the formation of an oxide layer on the gold before baking the porcelain and not by the degree of gross surface roughness. The oxide layer may act either as
The interface shear strength of uncoated Ti-6A1-4V, dense sintered hydroxyapatite (HA), and HA-coated Ti-6A1-4V were compared. Interface shear strength was determined using a transcortical push-out model in dogs 4 and 12 weeks after implantation. The interface shear strength of dense sintered HA and
We performed a transcortical push-out test to determine the effect of surface roughness of hydroxyapatite (HA)coated implants on bone-implant shear strength in a canine model.

Tensile strength testing of the interface between bone and a plasma-sprayed hydroxyapatite (HA) coating-Ti-6Al-4V (implant I) and an HA coating-Ti (implant II) was performed. The bone-implant interface and tensile failure mode were evaluated by light microscopy (LM), SEM-energy dispersive X-ray anal
## Abstract We investigate the effect of specimen geometry on the ultimate tensile strength of cortical bone measured by a tensile test. This article is motivated by the fact that there is no clear consensus in the literature on a suitable specimen shape for cortical bone testing. We consider three
