Pure hydroxyapatite (HA), HA and partially stabilized zirconia composites (PSZ) with YF 3 and HA–PSZ composite containing 5wt% PSZ without YF 3 were sintered in air at 900°C, 1100°C and 1300°C for 1h. The reactions and transformation of the phases in the composites were determined by X-ray diffraction. All the composites with or without YF 3 showed desirable thermal stability...
