Preparation and comparison study of hydroxyapatite and Eu-hydroxyapatite

Abstract

Hydroxyapatite (HA) is the main component of inorganic minerals in animal sclerous tissues. Nano HA has been used as an inorganic drug for many years in laboratories. In this paper, nano HA was at first synthesized by the coprecipitation method. The element europium was then doped to HA to obtain a new kind of product with fluorescence. Both products of doped and of non-doped HA were analyzed by IR, XRD, TEM and fluorescence microscope. It was proven that Eu-HA had fluorescence.

Keywords

hydroxyapatite (HA) / nanometer / europium / dope
