Abstract
The CaCl2-(NH4)2HPO4-(C6H11NO4)n-NH3-H2O system at 25°C was studied by the solubility (Tananaev’s residual concentrations) technique and pH measurements. The parameters providing for the coprecipitation of nanocrystalline (12.5–18.7 nm) calcium and chitosan hydroxylapatites were found. Calcium-deficient chitosan hydroxylapatites Ca9.8(PO4)6(OH)1.6 · xC6H11NO4 · yH2O, where x = 0.075 or 0.37 and y = 5.8 or 6.2, and stoichiometric calcium hydroxylapatites Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2 · xC6H11NO4 · yH2O, where x = 0.075, 0.1, 0.2, 0.37, 0.5, or 0.75 and y = 5.7–7.5, were synthesized. Solid phases were characterized by chemical analysis, X-ray powder diffraction, thermogravimetric analysis, and IR spectroscopy.
