The use of biomaterials in orthopedics is increasing. This led to the growth of innovations in the field of medicine, one of them is the development of biomaterials. Study of Sheep Hydroxyapatite (SHA)/shellac/sugar biocomposite characterization was to determine the phase of the material, porosity, hardness and compressive strength of them. This research was conducted to develop new types of biomaterials that can be used as bone filler material. The analysis that used in this research was dry methods. The results showed that observation of XRD (X-Ray Diffraction) shows the pattern of diffraction 2θ: 31.6472°, 32.7753°, 32.0723°, The highest hardness of SHA/shellac/sugar ratio was 70:30% (7.38±0.1395 VHN) and the lowest at 50:50% (4.91±0.37 VHN). The highest Diametral Tensile Strength (DTS) test was 70:30% (5.43±1.395 MPa) and the lowest at 50:50% (3.10±0.26 MPa). SEM observations are performed to see the material porosity.
