Abstract
Due to its chemical similarity to human bone and teeth and its widespread use in biomedical applications, hydroxyapatite (HAp) is the most popular calcium phosphate ceramic. Using chemical precursors, particularly calcium and phosphorus, hydroxyapatite can be created utilising a variety of techniques, including dry, wet, thermal, or a combination of these techniques. HAp can also be obtained from natural sources, such as the HAp-rich scales and bones of animals, as an alternative to chemical manufacture.Several synthesising techniques produce crystals with various morphologies, sizes, and phase crystallinities. Because of the human bone, the goal of creating a nano-sized HAp has garnered a lot of attention.The clinical performance of HAp in the nano size range is superior than that of HAp in the micron size range.
