Hydroxyapatite (HAP) nano-powder was synthesized in a used precipitation reaction, in which calcium nitrate 4-hydrate [Ca(NO 3 ) 2. 4H 2 O] and diammonium hydrogen phosphate [(NH 4 ) 2 HPO 4 ] were used as precursors and ammonia was used as the agent for PH adjustment. Hydroxyapatite powder has been studied at different firing temperature i.e 600, 700, 800, and 900 o C to achieve high degree of crystallinity and purity. The synthesized samples were characterized by Fourier Transform Infra-red Spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDS) techniques. The result shows that, high purity of nano-hydroxyapatite powders can be obtained at 600 o C, and the crystallinity and Magnification show formed rod of nano-sized grain.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
