Interaction between calcium phosphates (CP) and carbon nanotubes (CNT) in aqueous solutions and synthesis of CP/CNt nanocomposites
Keywords:
calcium hydroxyapatite, carbon nanotubes, nanocomposite.Abstract
Calcium hydroxyapatite (HAp) / carbon nanotubes (CNT) (with CNT content: 0.1, 1 and 5 %)
composite materials (CM) were synthesized by coprecipitation from the system Ca(OH)2–H3PO4–CNT–H2O
under biomimetic conditions (37°C). Influence of synthesis conditions and composition of the synthesizing
CM on the HAp crystallographic characteristics was analysed based on results of physico-chemical analyses
(chemical analysis, XRD analysis, FTIR spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis).
