Powder mixture of Ca(OH)(2)-P2O5-CaF2 were milled in planetary ball mill. A carbonated fluorhydroxyapatite, FHA Ca-10(PO4)(1-y)(CO3)(y)(PO4)(5)(OH)(2-2x1)(F)(2x1) was formed after 5 h of milling and carbonated fluoroapatite ...

One of the goals in the field of biomaterials for bone and dental tissue reconstruction is preparation of highly sinterable hydroxyapatite nanopowder; low-temperature sintering behavior could provide microstructural ...

The present study describes sintering behaviour of hydroxyapatite (HAp) upon addition of lithium iron phosphate (LFP) (1-10 wt.%) system in inert (Ar) atmosphere. The interaction between materials and melting of LFP ...

Composite biomaterials based on nano hydroxyapatite (HAp) are the subject of numerous studies in reconstructive medicine. Multifunctional and nanoparticulate systems based on HAp and biodegradable polymers are successfully ...

Hydroxyapatite (HAp) nanoparticles coated with bioresorbable polymers have been successfully used as filler, carriers of antibiotics, vitamins and stem cells in bone tissue engineering. Interactions in the microenvironment ...

Aim of work is to investigate an efficiency of hydrothermal treatment on formation of zirconium substituted hydroxyapatite Ca5-xZrx(PO4)3OH. A set of trial was conducted to optimize process and find substitution limit. ...

Doping of hydroxyapatite crystal structure with various ions is generally performed to improve biological, electrical, optical and mechanical properties of initial system. In this study, hydroxyapatite nanopowders doped ...

Hydroxyapatite nanopowders were prepared in the presence of different concentrations of zirconium ions. Such crystallization conditions yielded significantly reduced particle size and increased specific surface area. Cell ...
