Synthesis and Comparison of Chemical Changes for Novel Silver Substituted Hydroxyapatite using Fourier Transform InfraRed Rays

Abstract

The aim of the study is to synthesize and compare the chemical changes using FTIR for silver substituted hydroxyapatite. Different types of silver substituted hydroxyapatite are used. Ammonium hydroxide solution is combined with calcium nitrate tetrahydrate (Ca(NO3)2·4H2O), silver chloride hexahydrate (AgCl2.6H2O), diammonium hydrogen phosphate ((NH4)2HPO4), and ammonium hydroxide (HN4OH) solutions. The precipitation method was carried out using the ultrasonic. With the use of clinclac.com, the total sample size was determined for the silver substituted data (N=4), alpha error of 0.05, G power of 80%, enrollment ratio of 0:1, confidence interval of 95%, and total sample size of 4. There is a statistical significance existence, P=0.004, (p<0.05).This shows that there is a statistical significant difference between the two groups considered in this study. When compared to other percentages, 10% of silver substituted hydroxyapatite exhibits better properties. It is concluded that the 10% of silver doped hydroxyapatite is more efficient and exhibits better properties than other substitutions. It can be very used in bone regeneration, structural strength and dental implants.
