To improve the interface between inorganic filler and organic matrix the HA panicles were subjected to two different surface treatment methods, using polyacrylic acid (PAA) and γ-methacryloxy propyl trimethoxy silane (γMPS). The aim of the present study was to determine the influence of surface treatment and the inclusion of multifunctional methacrylates on the mechanical properties, namely 3-point flexural strength (FS) and fracture toughness of the cements and the effect of ageing in simulated body fluid. Comparing the mechanical properties of the two cements, the γMPS- HA cement showed that the fracture toughness of the experimental bone cements were significantly greater ( p 〈 0.001) compared to that of the PMMA cement, whereas PAA-HA containing cement had strength vollues around 20% lower. Interestingly, PAA was found to be more effective in improving the interface as the PAA treated HA cement ( UTHAPPA ) maintained its strength on immersion in SBF, suggesting that PAA provided a coupling, which was less sensitive to moisture, a similar trend was also observed with the inclusion of the carboxyl containing multifunctional methacrylates.展开更多
