Abstract

The aim of the paper was to obtain a porous hydroxyapatite (HA) biomaterials relating to the manufacture of artificial implants. The technique of impregnating a body of porous polyurethane foam with slurry containing HA powder, water and additives was applied and proved to be more successful. The process of preparations was discussed and the porous HA with desired properties was obtained at last.
