Multifunctional rGO/Y₂O₃@hydroxyapatite bioceramics: structural, optical, and biomedical properties.

ABSTRACT: Hydroxyapatite (HAp)/reduced graphene oxide (rGO)/yttrium oxide (Y₂O₃) composites were prepared by ethanol-assisted wet blending (colloidal dispersion), followed by drying and heat treatment, and systematically characterized. This study investigates the structural, optical, and functional enhancement in hydroxyapatite (HAp) after the incorporation of reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and yttrium oxide (Y₂O₃), aiming to develop multifunctional bioceramics for dual applications in bone regeneration. HAp/rGO/Y₂O₃ composites were prepared by ethanol-assisted wet blending (colloidal dispersion), followed by drying and heat treatment, and systematically characterized. XRD analysis confirmed the phase purity of the composites and reveal
