| Commercial hydroxyapatite was reinforced by adding small amounts (2 and 4 wt%) of P 2O
5-based glasses during its sintering process. The composites prepared had a chemical composition closely related to the mineral part of bone tissues in terms of trace elements usually detected, such as Na, K and Mg. X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD) showed that the glass reinforced-HA composites were composed of a HA matrix and variable amounts of tricalcium phosphate phase, depending on sintering temperature and glass composition. These composites were shown to have much higher biaxial bending strength than sintered HA, 107 MPa for Ha/2% of 35P
2O
5-35CAO-10Na
2O-10K
2O-10MgO glass composite and 28 MPa for sintered HA. The presence of β-tricalcium phosphate in the microstructure of the composites is an important factor in the reinforcement process.
