In bioscience, there are several apatites constituteds by differents compositions. In the biological environment, apatites are found in bones and teeth of vertebrates with Ca/P ration from 2.0 to 0.5. It is not easy to determine the exact proportion of Ca2 + and PO43- in solution in the preparation of the process. In this study, apatites with Ca/P ration 1.0, 1.67 and 2.0 were prepared by direct reaction in an solution of H3PO4 in a suspension of Ca(OH)2, of same molarity, evalueting the crystallinity of CPP, Hap e TeCP with 1 mol/l, 3 mol/l and 5 mol/l. The samples characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) were compared with the standard of reference of the data base JCPDS. The composition of calcium phosphate for the differents molarity studied, resulted in a combination of phases with the exception of hydroxyapatite Ca/P ration 1.67 at concentrations 1 mol/l and 3 mol/l. But the diffractograms revealed that the increased molarity provided a decrease of some peaks of reflection of calcium phosphates with Ca/P ration 1.67. However, for the Ca/P ration 1.0 increasing the concentration, showed an increase of crystallinity of calcium phosphates. The FTIR confirmed the presence of phosphates in the spectrums around 1045 cm-1. The calcium phosphates obtained through direct reaction showed Ca/P ration is related with the technique employed, consolidating it in the preparation of these bioceramics.
