| Summary: | This study investigated the flow behavior of feedstock containing hydroxyapatite (HAp) powder with palm stearin (PS) based binder system. The HAp was synthesized via chemical precipitation method with the use of waste of clamshells. The result showed that single phase synthesized HAp was successfully formed at annealing temperature and pH solution of 850°C and 6.5, respectively. The synthesized HAp with a volume fraction of 65% was then mixed with PS and and Polyethylene binder at 160°C to prepare a feedstock. From the rheological test result, it was found that the feedstock exhibited a pseudoplastic behavior with low values of shear sensitivity in comparison with commercial HAp. © (2014) Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland. |
