Hydroxyapatite (Ca10(PO4)6(OH))2, HAp has been one of the cheapest and well-known ceramics for diversified applications including clinical bone graft procedures for more than 30 years. Synthetic calcium phosphates, such as calcium hydroxyapatite, are an important inorganic biomaterial which has attracted the attention of researchers related to the biomaterials field in recent years. HAp is widely used for hard tissues repair due to its chemical and structural similarity with the mineral phase of bone and teeth. As a result, this inorganic phosphate has been studied extensively for medical applications in the form of powders, composites, and coatings [1–11]. HAp has many bone replacement applications and is used as bone substitutes in dental and orthope... view more»
