Hydrothermally-grown monetite (CaHPO 4) on hydroxyapatite

Using sintered hydroxyapatite as substrate and reagent grade CaO, P 2O 5 and deionized water as raw materials for hydrothermal reaction, monetite (CaHPO 4) could be deposited on the surface of hydroxyapatite under an autogeneous pressure of 1.55–8.59 MPa at 200–300 °C. The deposition rate of monetit...

Description
Summary:Using sintered hydroxyapatite as substrate and reagent grade CaO, P 2O 5 and deionized water as raw materials for hydrothermal reaction, monetite (CaHPO 4) could be deposited on the surface of hydroxyapatite under an autogeneous pressure of 1.55–8.59 MPa at 200–300 °C. The deposition rate of monetite increased with temperature and time of the reaction. Under 8.59 MPa at 300 °C. small needle-like crystals of monetite were present after 8 h. After 72 h, the diameter and length of the needle-like crystals became larger and the clusters of crystals were more pronounced. After growing for 120 h at 300 °C, the crystal morphology changed and the needle-like crystals coalesced into granular grains.
