Fabrication of low‐crystallinity hydroxyapatite foam based on the setting reaction of α‐tricalcium phosphate foam

Low‐crystallinity hydroxyapatite (HAP) foam is an ideal material for bone substitutes and scaffolds for bone tissue regeneration, because its interconnected pores provide the space for cell growth and tissue penetration, and its composition induces excellent tissue response and good osteoconductivity. In this study, the feasibility of low‐crystallinity HAP foam fabrication was evaluated based on the phase transformation reaction or the so‐called...
