Effect of Poly (Sodium 4-Styrene Sulfonate) on the Morphology of Hydroxyapatite Particles

Nanorods hydroxyapatite, (HAP) Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2 is successfully prepared by water in oil microemulsion using, CaCL2 and H3PO4 (water phase), poly(sodium 4-styrene sulfonate) (PSSS) as template and cyclohexane as oil phase. The nano-structure of the product was studied by means of X-ray diffraction...

Description
Summary:Nanorods hydroxyapatite, (HAP) Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2 is successfully prepared by water in oil microemulsion using, CaCL2 and H3PO4 (water phase), poly(sodium 4-styrene sulfonate) (PSSS) as template and cyclohexane as oil phase. The nano-structure of the product was studied by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transmission infrared spectrometer (FT-IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and atomic force microscope (AFM). With this system, we could synthesize nano-particles of hydroxyapatite with high crystallinity and least agglomeration.
