Development and Characterization of Fumed Silica Filled Hydroxyapatite Composites

ABSTRACT

In this study, preparation of fumed silica reinforced Hydroxyapatite (HAp) composites having different concentration of fumed silica from 1 to 4wt% has been prepared. XRD studies on HAp calcined at two temperatures have been done and analysed. XRD analysis indicates the structural modification with the addition of fumed silica. X ray analysis of fumed silica filled Hydroxyapatite (HAp) composites dried and calcined showed additional X ray peaks at 46.4 and 28.8 ° in case of 4 wt% fumed silica composite. Diameter of HAp particles changed on changing the calcination temperature.
