Abstract
This work shows that mechanochemical synthesis allows the obtaining of hydroxyapatite in which fluorine ions replace hydroxyl ions either partially or completely after 30 min of synthesis. The crystal structure of the materials obtained and their thermal stability when heated in the air were studied. It has been shown that the fluorine ions in the hexagonal channel of hydroxyapatite hinders diffusion of hydroxide ions at high temperatures, which leads to increased thermal stability of the apatite.
