Calcium phosphate is an interesting material for bone implant applications, as it shows biocompatibility and bioactivity to tissue bone. Among calcium phosphate-based materials, biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP), a mixture of non-resorbable hydroxyapatite (HA) and resorbable tricalcium phosphate (TCP...
