Synthesis, liquid – Liquid extraction and deposition of hydroxyapatite nanorod composites
Abstract
Hydroxyapatite (HA) nanorods were prepared by a wet chemical precipitation method. Lauryl gallate (LG) and hexadecylphosphonic acid (HDPA) showed strong adsorption on HA and allowed for the transfer of the synthesized HA nanorods from the aqueous to n-butanol phase at the interface of the two immiscible liquids. The extracted non-agglomerated HA particles were used for the fabrication of composite HA-polymer films. In this approach, the …
