Synthesis of Peculiar Structure of Hydroxyapatite Nanorods by Hydrothermal Condition for Biomedical Applications

In the present work, the effect of Ca(NO3)2.4H2O and (NH4)2HPO4 primary solutions as the beginning materials in synthesis of a calcium phosphate phase, was examined. So, we investigated the wet chemical reactions in solution at different temperatures by a hydrothermal condition aimed at hydroxyapatite (Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2); (HAp) synthesis. The powders were investigated by XRD, SEM, FE-TEM, HRTEM, EDAX, SAED and FT-IR. It was found that HAp has a length of approximately several micrometres and a diameter of 20-30 nm with different morphologies. As a matter of fact, the method of hydrothermal method guarantees the production of HAs for different applications especially clinical applications.
