Abstract

Ceramics the phase composition of which included tricalcium phosphate, calcium magnesium ortophosphate and magnesium pyrophosphate has been produced from nanosized powders synthesized by chemical deposition from 1M aqueous solutions of ammonium hydrogen phosphate and calcium and / or magnesium acetates. According to XRD analysis the phase composition of the powder synthesized from calcium acetate included calcium hydroxyapatite Ca5(PO4)3(OH), octacalcium phosphate Ca8H2(PO4)6·5H2O and brushite CaHPO4·2H2O. The phase composition of the powder synthesized from magnesium acetate included struvite MgNH4PO4·6H2O. And the phase composition of the powder synthesized from solution containing calcium and magnesium acetates at the cation ratio Са: Mg = 9: 1 included hydroxyapatite Ca5(PO4)3(OH), whitlockite Ca18Mg2H2(PO4)14, and struvite MgNH4PO4·6H2O. Ceramic materials containing the bioresorbable and biocompatible phases of calcium and / or magnesium phosphates can be used to make bone implants for treatment of bone tissue defects. Keywords: tricalcium phosphate, calcium magnesium orthophosphate, magnesium pyrophosphate, whitlockite, octacalcium phosphate, hydroxyapatite, brushite, struvite, ceramics.
