Synthesis of Hydroxyapatite Nanostructure by Hydrothermal Condition for Biomedical Application

      In this investigation, hydroxyapatite (HAp) nanostructure with uniform morphologies, controllable size, nano-dispersion and narrow-size distribution in diameter has been synthesized successfully by low-temperature hydrothermal process, and the as-synthesized powders were characterized by energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, high-resolution transmission elect...

Hydrothermal Synthesis of Hydroxyapatite – Polymer Composite Materials

The hydrothermal syntheses of hydroxyapatite and polymer composite materials were studied. The apatite precursor slurry was prepared by agitating a mixture of CaCO3 and CaHPO4·2H2O, and 3 kinds of polymeric fibers were added. The mixture was treated under hydrothermal conditions at 180 °C for 5 hours. The XRD patterns of the products showed that the products were well-crystallized hydroxyapatit...

Surfactant-assisted hydrothermal synthesis of hydroxyapatite nanopowders.

Rod-like hydroxyapatite nanoparticles (n-HAp) with a highly ordered nanostructure were prepared by hydrothermal synthesis from calcium chloride, and phosphoric acid, as calcium and phosphorus sources, respectively. Various surfactant families such as cationic (CTAB), anionic (SDS) and nonionic (Triton X-100) were used as regulators of the nucleation and crystal growth. The synthesized nanopowde...

Hydroxyapatite and Hydroxyapatite-Based Ceramics

Data are summarized on the synthesis of hydroxyapatite (HA) by wet-chemical processes, solidstate reactions, and hydrothermal treatment. The conditions for HA preparation via precipitation from solutions of calcium chloride, dibasic ammonium phosphate, and aqueous ammonia are discussed at length. Detailed analysis of the fabrication and properties of calcium-phosphate-based ceramics is presente...
