Synthesis of bioactive materials for implants in the system Ca3(PO4)2-Ca2GeO4
Abstract
Various modifications of Ge-substituted calcium phosphates were obtained using solid-phase synthesis, co-precipitation in solution, and combustion synthesis. Structural changes in the synthesis process are established using X-ray diffraction. The biological activity of the obtained samples in model fluids was estimated. It has been found that the synthesis method can lead to various structural modifications of calcium phosphate, which is a significant refinement to the phase diagram of the Ca3(PO4)2- Ca2GeO4 system described in the literature.
