Facile synthesis of hydroxyapatite nanoparticles, nanowires and hollow nano-structured microspheres using similar structured hard-precursors†
Abstract
A facile strategy was developed to delicately control the morphologies of hydroxyapatite materials from simple 0D morphologies to complicated 3D architectures using hard-precursors with similar structures. The present study provides a new platform for hydroxyapatite materials to be efficiently synthesized and manipulated.
