Experimental data on the characterization of hydroxyapatite produced from a novel mixture of biowastes

Weibull analysis of ceramics and related materials: A review

“…In a related study, we extracted HAp from bovine and catfish bones to synthesize a novel mix of HAp that can be useful for biomedical applications [ [69] , [70] , [71] , [72] , [73] , [74] , 82 , 338 , 339 ]. The samples were prepared and the compressive test was performed using a Universal Testing Machine.…”

“…The boom in bovine and catfish farming in Nigeria has led to a substantial upsurge in the creation of bone biowastes. These biowastes can be used as raw material for producing HAp, a pervasive calcium phosphate substance used in biomedical engineering [ 73 ]. The economy, environment and general health could all significantly gain from this conversion of biowastes [ 74 ].…”

Taguchi grey relational optimization of sol–gel derived hydroxyapatite from a novel mix of two natural biowastes for biomedical applications

“…Some scientists have been engaged in the development of HAp from natural sources. Bovine bones 5 , 8 , 11 , fish bones 13 – 15 , porcine bones 8 , 16 , eggshells 10 , 17 , and seashells 18 , 19 are a few of the natural sources now being examined. From their results, some of these precursors have their weaknesses, also their availability and ease of processing are other challenges.…”

“…These techniques resulted in the creation of HAp powder with various morphologies, stoichiometric compositions, grain sizes, and crystallinity levels 25 . In the previous works 13 , 15 , the authors studied the synthesis, characterization, and experimental data of natural hydroxyapatite produced from a new blend of animal bones. The bovine and catfish bones were used as their apatite is similar to human bone.…”
