Conference Paper Description

Zn or Mg ions doped hydroxyapatite (HA) particles were successfully developed by introducing various concentration of Zn or Mg in the starting solution using wet chemical precipitation method and followed a hydrothermal treatment. The products were identified as HA by XRD and FTIR, and the precipitated particles had a rod-like morphology. All the products for Mg and Zn ions concentration in the preparation solution less than 40 mol% were identified as HA. Substitution of Mg and Zn in HA crystal would impair the crystallization of HA and significantly reduce the length of a, c values of HA unit cell, which clearly demonstrated that Mg or Zn ions were structurally incorporated into the apatite crystals, they were not just absorbed on the surface of crystals. © (2013) Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland.
