“…The crystallographic plans at (002), (211), (310), ( 222), ( 213) and (004) represent the characteristic pattern of HAp, showing no formation of any different calcium phosphate. However, these peaks are broaded and overlapped (evidenced in the 211 plan) demonstrating the presence of amorphous phase in HAp precipitated, very similar to biological apatite present in natural bone [28,29]. The HAp crystallinity is directly affected by the temperature; low temperature process creates broaded peaks and amorphous phases, while at higher temperatures, the peaks are sharper, indicating an increase in the crystallinity.…”
