Consequences of Fluoride Incorporation on Properties of Apatites

Abstract: Fluoride, when incorporated in the apatite, stabilizes the structure. The purpose of this study was to determine the consequences of fluoride (F) substitution on the physico-chemical properties of apatites. F-containing apatites were prepared by precipitation or by hydrolysis of CaHPO4 in solutions containing different F concentrations and characterized using x-ray diffraction, FT-IR spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, thermogravimetry and chemical analyses. Results showed that F incorporation have the… Show more

“…This recrystallization process occurs simultaneously with collagen degradation in bones exposed on soil surfaces (Tuross et al 1989;Trueman et al 2004) and is accompanied by incorporation of various ions in the apatite matrix via diffusion or ion exchange (Pate et al 1989;Kohn 2008;Trueman 2008). Chemical alterations such as substitution of OHby Fand reduction of carbonate content increase the apatite crystallinity and provide greater chemical stability (LeGeros and Tung 1983;LeGeros et al 2006) while the geochemical conditions of the deposition site, as for example waterlogged areas (Reiche et al 2002), can also affect the size of the apatite crystals in sub-fossil bone, resulting in sizes comparable to that in fossil bones. Therefore, the apatite crystallinity depends on many factors such as the amount of preserved collagen, the sediment pH and redox potential, hydrology and solution composition, the bone porosity, the microbial activity, exposure on soil surface and the pre-burial environmental conditions.…”

“…Third, in contrast to polymers, the chemistry or topography of which can be, to a certain extent, tuned individually without affecting the other parameters, the properties of ceramic materials are difficult to control independently during the synthesis process . For example, it is very difficult to change the chemical composition of CaPs without affecting their crystal structure or morphology, or the micropore size without changing the total porosity . Therefore, any experiment designed to correlate the effect of an individual property with a certain biological response is largely affected by this entanglement of the properties ( Figure ).…”

“…In hydroxyapatite structure, PO 3− 4 anions can be partially substituted with carbonate group-type B of carbonated hydroxyapatite-as opposed to type A of high-temperature carbonated hydroxyapatite, in which hydroxyl groups are partially substituted with CO 2− 3 (LeGeros et al 1968(LeGeros et al , 1971Suetsugu et al 1997;Rajabi-Zamani et al 2008). Substitutions in anionic sublattice with other chemical elements such as chlorine or fluorine are common (LeGeros 1991;LeGeros et al 2006). Calcium partially substituted with magnesium (0•7 wt%), sodium (0•9 wt%), potassium (0•03 wt%) and microelements such as Sr, Pb, Zn, Cu and Fe have also been found (LeGeros et al 1989;1995a, b;Veiderma et al 2005;Kalita and Bhatt 2007).…”

The non-stoichiometry, particularly Ca-deficiency, as well as the presence of foreign ions, affect properties of hydroxyapatite such as reduction in crystal size (crystallinity), increase in solubility related to resorbability if the material has been implanted in human system, thermal stability is essential for elaboration of HAp based materials for further medical purpose, etc (Jarcho 1976;LeGeros 1991;Raynaud et al 1998Raynaud et al , 2002De Champos and Bressiani 2002;LeGeros et al 2006).…”
