Abstract
Barium hydroxyapatite (BaHAP) nanoparticles have been synthesized by citric acid sol-gel combustion method using citric acid as a reductant/fuel and nitrate as an oxidant at a relatively low temperature of 600 °C. The thermal decomposition of nitrate-citrate xerogel was investigated by thermogravimetric/differential thermal analysis (TG/DTA) technique. The yielding powders calcined at 600 °C have been characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and transmission electron microscope (TEM). The possible combustion process was presented.
