in this work, sol-gel processing was used to synthesize the fluorohydroxyapatite (nano-fha, ca10(po4)6(oh)2−xfx) nanopowders. the advantages of the sol-gel method over other methods are precise control of composition, low processing temperature, and better homogeneity. calcium nitrate tetrahydrate, phosphorous pentoxide and tetrabuthylammonium fluoride were used, respectively, as p, ca, and f p...
