“…To finalize the description of individual CaPO 4 , one should mention on an interesting opinion, that all types of CaPO 4 listed in Table 1 might be classified into three major structural types (Mathew and Takagi 2001;Chow and Eanes 2001). They comprise: (1) the apatite type, Ca 10 (PO 4 ) 6 X 2 , which includes HA, FA, OA, CDHA, OCP and TTCP; (2) the glaserite type, named after the mineral glaserite, K 3 Na(SO 4 ) 2 , which includes all polymorphs of TCP and, perhaps, ACP; (3) the Ca-PO 4 sheet-containing compounds, which include DCPD, DCPA, MCPM and MCPA.…”
