The effect of multi-ions (Mg2+, SiO4 4-, Zn2+, Cu2+) doping on the properties of carbonated hydroxyapatite (CHA) prepared by a wet chemical method has been investigated. Different combinations of ions were doped into the CHA and the as-synthesized compacts were sintered at 900 °C prior to body chara...
