Abstract Peroxydiphosphate ion, P 2 O 4-8, PDP, a potential agent to control mineralization
in biological systems, adsorbs readily onto hydroxyapatite, HA, the prototype of the mineral …

The binding on hydroxyapatite has been studied of inorganic pyrophosphate (PP j) and two
diphosphonates, disodium ethane-1-hydroxy-1, 1-diphosphonate (EHDP) and disodium …

The kinetics of crystal growth of hydroxyapatite [Ca5 (PO4) 3OH, HAP], the
thermodynamically most stable calcium phosphate phase, at 37° C, pH 7.4 and ionic …

Hydroxyapatite is the structural prototype of the main inorganic constituent of bone and teeth
and, together with fluorapatite, is also one of the principal minerals in commercial phosphate …

Kinetic effects of the rate of dissolution of calcium hydroxyapatite crystals (HAP) due to
adsorption of methylene diphosphonate ions (MDP), stannous ions, partly peptized collagen …

Bone mineral consists of small crystals of CO 3-containing, Ca-deficient, non-stoichiometric
hydroxyapatite (HA) with a large and reactive surface of 100–200m 2 g− 1. This paper …

This paper reviews the effects of octacalcium phosphate (OCP), Ca 8 H 2 (PO 4) 6· 5H 2 O,
on the interfacial and colloidal properties of apatitic precipitates. The structural deductions …

The rate of dissolution of calcium hydroxyapatite microcrystals [Ca10 (PO4) 6 (OH) 2, HAP]
in aqueous suspension is controlled by a surface reaction, the diffusion of dissolved …

The adsorption of tin (II) on hydroxyapatite (a model for the mineral phase of bone) was
studied in vitro in the presence of either 1-hydroxy ethylidene-1, 1-diphosphonate (HEDP) or …

Phosphonate additives have important applications both in biomineralization processes and
in industrial mineral scale formation. The kinetics of crystal growth of hydroxyapatite (HAP) …
