5 glass reinforced hydroxyapatite composite materials were prepared through a liquid-phase sintering process. Secondary phases, β- and α- tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP and α-TCP), were formed in the microstructure of the composites, due to the reaction between the liquid glassy phase and the hydroxyapatite matrix. The dynamic Young's modulus (E) and shear modulus (G) of these composites were determined using an impulse excitation method. By applying the Duckworth-Knudsen equation, the elastic property results were correlated with the relative proportion of β-TCP and α-TCP phases and with the porosity percentage present in the microstructure. Glass reinforced hydroxyapatite composites showed lower Young's and shear moduli than unmodified hydroxyapatite, mainly due to presence of β-TCP phase. The Duckworth-Knudsen model demonstrated an exponential dependence of E and G modulus with porosity and mathematical equations were derived for composite materials with porosity correction factors (b) of 4.04 and 4.11, respectively, indicating that porosity largely decreased both E and G moduli.
