Hydroxyapatite (HAP) and dicalcium phosphate dihydrate (brushite) nanoparticles were prepared by co-precipitation method. The obtained products were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), Fourier transformation infra-red spectroscopy (FTIR) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM) were used to investigate the morphology of the powdered samples as well as their microstructure, respectively. Brushite samples were obtained in a spherical shape, while hydroxyapatite was formed in a needle and rice shape depending on the pH value.
