Although hydroxyapatite has good biocompatibility and osteoconductive characteristics, the poor mechanical strength restricts its use in non-load-bearing applications. Consequently, a rapid increase in reinforcing of other nanomaterials into hydroxyapatite for the formation of HANs could improve the mechanical properties. Most of the research reported on the success of other nanomaterials such as metals, ceramics and natural/synthetic polymers as additions into hydroxyapatite is reviewed. In addition, this review also focuses on the addition of various substances into hydroxyapatite for the formation of various HANs and at the same time to try to minimize the limitations so that various bone tissue engineering and drug loading system applications can be exploited.Keywords: hydroxyapatite, nanocomposites, physicochemical enhancement, bone tissue engineering and drug carrierAbdul Halim NAHussein MZKandar MKDove Medical Pressarticlehydroxyapatitenanocompositesphysicochemical enhancementbone tissue engineering and drug carrierMedicine (General)R5-920ENInternational Journal of Nanomedicine, Vol Volume 16, Pp 6477-6496 (2021)
