Hydroxyapatite films were prepared on Si(100) substrates by using a sol-gel method with calcium nitrate and phosphoric acid as starting materials. Precursor sols were spin-coated onto the substrates and prefired at $500^{\circ}C$ for 10 min in air. Formation of the hydroxypatite structure was confirmed in the sample annealed at $500^{\circ}C$ by the X-ray diffraction $\theta$-2$\theta$ scans and a tricalcium phosphate phase was observed in the samples annealed at both temperature regions of $500^{\circ}C$~$700^{\circ}C$ and $900^{\circ}C$. From the results of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, the change of a carbon content and improvement of crystallinity have been discussed as a function of increase of annealing temperature.

최근 디지털 장비의 발전에 발맞추어 고속, 고화질의 컬러 문서가 요구됨에 따라 레이저 프린터의 보급 또한 급속도로 성장하고 있는 실정이다. 토너는 고속, 고화질의 컬러 문서 인쇄에 가장 중요한 역할을 하는 것으로, 크게 분쇄법과 중합법에 의해 제조 되고 있다. 그러나 그 중 분쇄법 토너는 근본적으로 해결되지 않는 문제점들이 있다. 즉, 중합된 수지를 사용함으로 인한 단가상승과 수지와 내첨제를 용융혼합하는 과정에서의 분산의 한계성, 그리고 인쇄 품질의 좋지 않은 것이 그 대표적인 예이다. 이에 본 실험에서는 고속, 고화질의 컬러 프린터에 적합한 중합법에 의한 토너 제조시 하이드록시아파타이트가 토너 제조에 미치는 영향에 대해서 연구하였다. Ca/P의 몰비에 따라 제조된 하이드록시아파타이트가 토너의 입자형성에 크게 영향을 주었으며, 이에 따라 토너의 물성에도 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 pH에 따라서도 토너중합에 많은 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 토너 입자 형성에 적절한 Ca/P의 몰비 및 pH가 존재 하며, 이를 최적으로 조절하면 양질의 토너를 제조 할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Natural hydroxyapatite powder was obtained from the calcination of bovine bones and its porous compacts were fabricated by pressureless sintering at 1100 and $1200^{\circ}C$ for 1h. To evaluate and compare their biocompatibility with porosity, we investigated the support of osteoblast cells growth and cytotoxicity using the MG-63 cell line model in vitro. Sintered hydroxyapatite ceramics have a porous microstructure with a relative density of 65 % at $1100^{\circ}C$ and 82 % at $1200^{\circ}C$. Cells adherence to the surface of hydroxyapatite ceramics was observed in a day after the cell culture, and the spreading of cytoplasm around the nucleus was shown after 3 day cell culture. Most of cells were extended to the surface of hydroxyapatite through the wide area. Cell viability was nearly the same till 3 days culturing. But the rate of cell growth is higher in the specimen sintered at $1100^{\circ}C$ than that of $1200^{\circ}C$. It indicates that the porosity is an important factor to enhance the cell viability in the porous hydroxyapatite ceramics derived from bovine bones.

Hydroxyapatite has osteoconductivity, biocompatibility and noninflammatory, and it has been used clinically as artificial bone. In this study, we prepared hydroxyapatite/poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) scaffolds using 0, 10, 20, 40 and 60 wt% of hydroxyapatite. We analyzed compressive strength, SEM analysis and FTIR for mechanical property of 3D hydroxyapatite/PLGA scaffolds. For biocompatibility tests, cell proliferation and viability were measured via MTT assay and SEM. We analyzed RT-PCR, FACS, histology (H&E, ED-1) for anti-inflammatory effect. This study showed that hydroxyapatite hybrid scaffolds have low inflammatory reaction compared with the PLGA. This result has a potential for the application of artificial bone graft material.

The microstructure of nano-sized hydroxyapatite (HAp) powders coating layer on ZrO$_2$ substrate was investigated, which was formed by plasma spray process. The nano-sized HAp powders were successfully synthesized by precipitation of Ca(NO$_3$)$_2$$.$4H$_2$O and (NH$_4$)$_2$HPO$_4$ solution. The HAp coating layer with thickness of 150∼250 $\mu\textrm{m}$ was free from the cracks at interfaces between the coating and ZrO$_2$ substrate. In the plasma sprayed HAp coating layer, the undesirable phases were not found, while in the HAp coating layer heat-treated at 800$^{\circ}C$, TTCP, and ${\beta}$-TCP phase were detected as well as HAp phase. However, at 900$^{\circ}C$, they were completely disappeared. At 1100$^{\circ}C$, XRD analysis revealed that the coating layer was composed of the highly crystallized HAp.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of incorporated nano HA on the demineralization resistance and bonding strength of LC GIC in comparison with micro HA. Fuji II LC GIC was used as the control group and a base material for experimental groups. Two experimental groups were prepared. One was prepared by adding 15% micro HA to LC GIC by weight ratio (Exp. 1), and the other was prepared by adding 15% nano HA instead (Exp. 2). According to the results, the following conclusions could be obtained. 1. Observing under the CLSM, the control group showed thicker enamel demineralization layer than in the experimental groups, and the Exp. 2 group showed the thinnest demineralization layer. 2. In SEM analysis, there was greater enamel demineralization in the control group. The Exp. 2 group was more resistant to demineralization compared to the Exp. 1 group. 3. The bonding strength was found to be in the increasing order of control, Exp. 1, and Exp. 2 group (p < 0.05). 4. Observing the fractured surfaces under SEM after the bonding strength test was performed, there were bone-like apatite particles formed in HA-added experimental groups, and a greater number of bone-like apatite particles were formed in the Exp. 2 group compared to the Exp. 1 group.

The aim of this study was to evaluate changes in demineralization resistance and bonding strength of light cured glass ionomer after the addition of nano hydroxyapatite in various ratios. Fuji II LC GIC (GC Co., Japan) was used as the control group and also as a base material for experimental group. HA was mixed into the RMGIC at various ratio to create a HA-LC GIC mixture, preparing six experimental groups, i.e. 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30% HA-LC GIC. According to the results, the bonding strength increased due to the addition of HA, showing the maximum value at the 15% nano HA group (p < 0.05). Under CLSM observation after 4 days of demineralization, the HA groups were more resistant to demineralization compared to the control group. No significant difference was observed between HA groups. In analysis through SEM, the HA groups showed attachment of granular materials and decreased demineralized tooth surfaces under influence of HA particles.

The objective of this study was to fabricate hydroxyapatite (HA) containing titania layer by HA blasting and anodization method to obtain advantages of both methods and evaluated biocompatibility. To fabricate the HA containing titania layer on titanium, HA blasting treatment was performed followed by microarc oxidation (MAO) using the electrolyte solution of 0.04 M ${\beta}$-glycerol phosphate disodium salt n-hydrate and 0.4 M calcium acetate n-hydrate on the condition of various applied voltages (100, 150, 200, 250 V) for 3 minutes. The experimental group was divided according to the surface treatment procedure: SM (simple machined polishing treatment), HA, MAO, HA+MAO 100, HA+MAO 150, HA+MAO 200, HA+MAO 250. The wettability of surface was observed by contact angle measurement. Biocompatibility was evaluated by cell adhesion, and cell differentiation including alkaline phosphatase activity and calcium concentration with MC3T3-E1 cells. The porous titanium oxide containing HA was formed at 150 and 200 V. These surfaces had a more hydrophilic characteristic. Biocompatibility was demonstrated that HA titania composite layer on titanium showed enhanced cell adhesion, and cell differentiation. Therefore, these results suggested that HA containing titania layer on titanium was improved biological properties that could be applied as material for dental implant system.
