수산화아피타이트와 이트리아 부분 안정화된 지르코니아의 바를 달리하는 3층 구조를 가즌ㄴ 생체 재료용 경사기능재료(FGMs)를 spark plasma sintering(SPS)과 hot pressing(HP) 장비로 제조하였다. HAp 원료에 대한 전처리를 실시할 경우 HAp의 소결성이 개선되었다. 전처리하여 얻은 FGM 복합체의 최고밀도는 전처리하지 않은 FGM 보다 낮은 온도에서 얻을 수 있었다. SPS로 FGM 소결체를 제조할 경우 10 MPa의 가압조건에서 8분 동안 소결 할 경우, $1200^{\circ}C$의 온도에서도 HAp의 TCP로의 분해 반응은 일어나지 않았으나. 이 온도에서 FGm의 지르코니아는 정방정에서 압방정으로와 상변화가 일어났다. 지르코니아 첨가에 따라. 즉 지르코니아의 응력 유기 상전이에 의해, HAp-ZrO$_2$ FGm 소결체의 기계적 물성이 증진된 것으로 예산된다. 치밀하고 고강도의 FGM을 제조하는 방법으로서 SPS가 HP공정에 비해 우수한 것으로 나타났다.

In the preparation of hydroxyapatite(HAp)/gelatin(GEL) nanocomposite, GEL matrix was modified by the introduction of chondroitin sulfate(ChS) to obtain a strongly organized composite body. The formation reaction of the HAp/GEL-ChS nanocomposite was then investigated via XRD, DT/TGA, FT-IR, TEM and SEM. The organic-inorganic interaction between HAp nanocrystallites and GEL molecules was confirmed from DT/TGA and FT-IR. According to the DT/TGA results, the exothermal temperature zone between 300 and $550^{\circ}C$ showed an additional peak temperature that indicated the decomposition of the combined organics of the GEL and ChS. From the FT-IR analysis, calcium phosphate(Ca-P) was covalently bound with the GEL macromolecules modified by ChS. From TEM and ED, the matrix of the GEL-ChS molecules was mineralized by HAp nanocrystallites and the dense dried nanocomposite body was confirmed from SEM micrographs.

The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of pH, temperature and time on the synthesis of hydroxyapatite(HAP) by spontaneous precipitation under relatively physiologic condition. Specimens were obtained from aqueous system with various pH, temperature and experimental time. Chemical composition, crystallographic structure and crystallinity of the synthetic HAP were evaluated by Infrared spectroscopy and powdered X-ray diffraction method. The following results were obtained. 1. No precipitate was obtained under pH 5.5. 2. All the specimens were concluded as HAP except one that was obtained under the condition of pH 6.5, $25^{\circ}C$ and 1 day. It was concluded as dicalcium phosphate dihydrate(DCPD). 3. The crystallinity of HAP was enhanced by increases in pH, temperature and time of the preparation. But, the crystallinity of the synthetic HAP was lower than that of the mineral HAP. 4. Intermediates such as DCPD and octacalcium phosphate were formed on the process of the synthesis of HAP.

Nano-crystalline hydroxyapatite (HAp) films were formed at the Ti surface by a single-step microarc oxidation (MAO), and HAp-zirconia composite (HZC) films were obtained by subsequent chemical vapor deposition (CVD) of zirconia onto the HAp. Through the CVD process, zero- and one-dimensional zirconia nanostructures having tetragonal crystallinity (t-ZrO2) were uniformly distributed and well incorporated into the HAp crystal matrix to form nanoscale composites. In particular, (t-$ZrO_2$) was synthesized at a very low temperature. The HZC films did not show secondary phases such as tricalcium phosphate (TCP) and tetracalcium phosphate (TTCP) at relatively high temperatures. The most likely mechanism for the formation of the t-$ZrO_2$ and the pure HAp at the low processing temperature was proposed to be the diffusion of $Ca^{2+}$ ions. The HZC films showed increasing micro-Vickers hardness values with increases in the t-$ZrO_2$ content. The morphological features and phase compositions of the HZC films showed strong dependence on the time and temperature of the CVD process. Furthermore, they showed enhanced cell proliferation compared to the $TiO_2$ and HAp films most likely due to the surface structure change.

Nano-hydroxyapatite (N-HAp)has shown the pivotal role in producing bone-regenerative materials since it has similarity to natural bone minerals in terms of size, morphology, and the composition. Currently, the combination of biopolymers and N-HAp is recognizedas an attractive approach in generating hybrid scaffolds for bone tissueengineering. Surface engineering is an important issue since it determines whether cells can effectively adhere and proliferate on porous scaffolds. We aim to develop a synthetic approach to porous 3D scaffolds by immobilizing N-HAp on pore surfaces. The discrete nano-level anchoring of N-HAp on the scaffold pore surface is achieved using surface-repellent stable colloidal N-HAp with surface phosphate functionality. This rational surface engineering enables surface-anchored N-HAp to express its overall intrinsic bioactivity,since N-HAp is not phase-mixed with the polymers. The porous polymer scaffolds with surface-immobilized N-HAp provide more favorable environments thanconventional bulk phase-mixed polymer/N-HAp scaffolds in terms of cellular interaction and growth. In vitro biological evaluation using alkalinephosphatase activity assay supports that immobilized N-HAp on pore surfaces of polymer scaffolds contributed to the more enhanced in vitro osteogenicpotential. Besides, the scaffolds with surface-exposed N-HAp provide favorable environments for enhanced in vivo bone tissue growth, estimated by characteristic biomarkers of bone formation such as collagen. The results suggest that newly developed hybrid scaffolds with surface-immobilized N-HApmay serve as a useful 3D substrate with pore surfaces featuring excellent bonetissue-regenerative properties.

Hydroxyapatite (HAp) powders with different crystallinities were synthesized at various calcination temperatures through the co-precipitation of $Ca(OH)_2$ and $H_3PO_4$. The degradation behavior of these HAp powders with different crystallinities was assessed in a simulated body fluid solution (SBF) for 8 weeks. Below $800^{\circ}C$, the powders were nonstochiometric HAp, and the single HAp phase was successfully synthesized at $800^{\circ}C$. The degree of crystallinity of the HAp powders increased with an increasing calcination temperature and varied in a range from 39.6% to 92.5%. In the low crystallinity HAp powders, the Ca and P ion concentrations of the SBF solution increased with an increasing soaking time, which indicated that the low crystallinity HAp degraded in the SBF solution. The mass of the HAp powders linearly decreased with respect to the soaking time, and the mass loss was higher at lower crystallinities. The mass loss ranged from 0.8% to 13.2% after 8 weeks. The crystallinity of the HAp powders increased with an increasing soaking time up to 4 weeks and then decreased because of HAp degradation. The pH of the SBF solution did not change much throughout the course of these experiments. These results suggested that the crystallinity of HAp can be used to control the degradation.

Hydroxyapatite powder was injected into thehole of teeth. The microstructure of teeth and HAp were observed after immersed in $9\%$ salin solution at $37^{\circ}C$ from 1month to 6 months. The junction morphology of hydroxyapatite and tooth was enhanced and particle size of hydroapatite was decreased with increasing time. The firm waxy body was found due to the hardening of hydroxyapatite fine powder resulting from the destruction of initial powder with swelling. It is suggested that the junction morphology of hydroxyapatite and tooth was observed due to the $Ca^{2+}$ ion shift of hydroxyapatite.

The crystal morphology of hydroxyapatite [HAp] phase in gelatin [GEL] matrices was investigated with the condition of a GEL precursor treatment in an aqueous solution of $H_{3}PO_{4}$ at $37-80^{\circ}C$. Needle-shaped nanocomposite particles were prepared through a dynamic reaction during a coprecipitation process using a phosphoric GEL solution. Various types of mineralized morphology appeared with a phosphorylated condition of the GEL solution. HAp/GEL nanocomposite slurries showed the existence of an octacalcium phosphate [OCP] phase during the process.

수산화인회석은 생체 적합성이 뛰어나 다양한 분야에 활용이 가능하다. 그 중 약물/유전자 전달과 같은 실용적인 생물학적 응용을 수행하기 위해 인산완충식염수(PBS) 용액 속 수산화인회석의 콜로이드 안정성은 특히 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 글리세롤 용액 하에 수산화인회석을 200 ℃로 열처리하여 글리세롤이 흡착된 수산화인회석(Gly-HAP)을 합성하였다. 이를 상온에서 합성한 수산화인회석(RT-HAP) 및 증류수에서 200 ℃로 열처리된 수산화인회석(H₂O-HAP)과 물성 및 콜로이드 안정성을 비교하였다. 증류수와 글리세롤 용액 모두에서 열처리는 수산화인회석의 결정성을 향상시켰다. 하지만 글리세롤에 대한 수산화인회석의 낮은 용해도와 수산화인회석 표면에 글리세롤 분자들의 흡착으로 인해 열처리 과정에서 Gly-HAP의 결정 성장이 제한되었다. 반면에 H₂O-HAP는 초기 결정 크기에 비해 약 4배 성장하였다. RT-HAP 및 H₂O-HAP과 비교하면, Gly-HAP는 PBS 용액에서 콜로이드 안정성이 향상되었으며, 이는 글리세롤이 수산화인회석 표면에 흡착되어 HAP 결정들의 응집을 억제한 것에 기인한다.

Electrochemical synthesis was employed to prepare a novel hydroxyapatite/graphene (HAP/Gr) composite powder suitable for medical applications as a hard tissue implant (scaffold). The synthesis was performed in a homogeneous dispersion containing Na₂H₂EDTA·2H₂O, NaH₂PO₄ and CaCl₂ with a Ca/EDTA/PO₄³⁻ concentration ratio of 0.25/0.25/0.15M, along with 0.01 wt% added graphene nanosheets, at a current density of 137 mA cm⁻² and pH value of 9.0. The field emission scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy observations of the composite HAP/Gr powder indicated that nanosized hydroxyapatite particles were uniformly placed in the graphene overlay. Raman spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction confirmed graphene incorporation in the HAP/Gr powder. The electrochemically prepared HAP/Gr composite powder exhibited slight antibacterial effect against the growth of the bacterial strain Staphylococcus aureus.
