Synthesis of TiO2-Modified Hydroxyapatite with Various Morphology by Urea-Assisted Hydrothermal Method

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this study, we synthesized the TiO2-modified hydroxyapatite (HAp) with various morphologies by hydrothermal treatment using urea decomposition, at 160 oC for 6 h. After hydrothermal treatment, carbonate-substituted HAp and TiO2 (anatase) phases were formed in products using 1.0-0.1 M urea solution. The morphology of synthesized HAp changed from small plate-shaped to long needle-shaped crystals with decreasing the urea concentration. The photocatalytic property for samples was investigated by decoloration test using 25 ppm methylene blue solution. In comparison with HAp samples without TiO2, the TiO2-modified HAp clearly showed the photocatalytic decomposition of methylene blue by UV irradiation.
