Targeted synthesis of octacalcium phosphate and a study of its properties

详细

The optimal conditions of synthesis of one of the most promising precursors of biological apatites— octacalcium phosphate (OCP)—have been determined. The OCP synthesis was carried out by two main methods: hydrolysis of brushite and precipitation from an aqueous solution. The samples’ phase composition, morphology, and thermal stability, as well as their bioresorbability in electrolytes of different acidity, have been investigated.
