Abstract

The effects of drying air temperature and flow rate, spraying air flow rate and slurry feed rate were investigated on the morphology, size distribution, density and flowability of spray-dried hydroxyapatite granules. The granules were of good spherical shape and smooth surface, but low flowability. The granules of uniform size distribution were obtained at high spraying air flow rate and granules of small sizes were collected at high spraying and drying air flow rates, high slurry feed rate and low drying air temperature. Thus, by adjusting the spray drying conditions we can control the granule properties.
