Synthesis and modification of apatite nanoparticles for use in dental and medical applications
Synthesised hydroxyapatite (HAp) exhibits excellent biocompatibility, making it an ideal candidate for use as a hard tissue substitute material.Nanoscale-size effects and surface phenomena impart HAp nanoparticles with unique properties compared Nests Wicker to the conventional-sized HAp ceramics.Modification of HAp is also important for regulating
