Hydroxyapatite in the form of hydroxycarbonate apatite is the principal mineral component of
bone tissue in mammals. In Bioceramics, it is classed as a bioactive material, which means …

Hydroxyapatite (HA) represents a good model system for biological apatites which are
characterized by poor crystallinity and non stoichiometry due to the presence of significant …

Hydroxyapatite (HAP) belongs to the family of Ca apatite. Its natural composition and
structure are similar to the inorganic phase of natural bone and teeth and has a wide range …

Hydroxyapatite (HAP) is a calcium phosphate compound with the chemical formula Ca5
