Electrocrystallization of Calcium Phosphates
نویسنده
چکیده
The interest in electrocrystallization of calcium phosphates (CaP) in general, and of hydroxyapatite (HAp) specifically, results from the promising industrial benefits, unique microstructures, and properties of the deposits produced by this process, and the possible similarity to bone mineralization in vivo. In this paper, our work on electrocrystallization of HAp and octacalcium phosphate (OCP) on CP-Ti and Ti-6Al-4V alloy, in solution containing calcium nitrate and ammonium dihydrogen phosphate, is briefly reviewed. The early stages of nucleation and growth are characterized in real time by means such as electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance (EQCM) and electrochemical atomic force microscope (EC-AFM). The change in growth mode and the role of precursors to HAp are explained. The role of charge transfer and local increase in pH is discussed.

Knowledge of forms of phosphorus (P) is important in the evaluation of soil P status and also in understanding soil genesis and fertility. Amounts and distribution of P in different organic and inorganic fractions were examined in 39 soil samples of Fars province. Soils were sequentially extracted to determine organic P and inorganic P fractions. Total P with an average of 597 mg/kg soil was ...
