Abstract

The purpose of this study was to prepare biphasic granules containing gypsum and carbonated apatite at low temperatures. The biphasic granules were prepared using dissolution-precipitation technique at three different temperatures 30°C, 40°C and 50°C. Characterization of the biphasic granules was determined by multiple analytical methods such as X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Fourier Transform Infra-red (FTIR), and CHN Analysis. The obtained granules were determined by XRD as biphasic granules containing bone apatite and gypsum. The cross-section of biphasic granules was observed by SEM. The formed bone apatite was identified as B-Type carbonated apatite using FTIR The carbonate content in biphasic granules fabricated at 30°C, 40°C and 50°C were recorded by CHN analysis as 5.0 wt%, 6.1 wt% and 6.25 wt%, respectively.
