Hydroxyapatite Nanopowder/Nanoparticles
Purity: 95% min, Size: 50 nm
Hydroxyapatite is a naturally occurring mineral form of calcium phosphate represented by the formula Ca5(PO4)3OH·2H2O. The OH− ion can be replaced by fluoride, chloride, or carbonate to form fluorapatite or chlorapatite. Hydroxyapatite provides the rigidity found in bones and teeth. It is widely used in orthopedic, dental, and maxillofacial applications.
