Thermal analysis on dehydroxylation of sol-gel derived zinc doped calcium phosphate powders
The dehydroxylation of Zn free and 4 mol% Zn CaP powder was investigated using thermogravimetric analysis over the range of room temperature to 1200 °C. The kinetic result of dehydroxylation of Zn free and 4 mol% Zn CaP was calculated by means of the Ozawa–Flynn–Wall method. The XRD result indicated...

| Summary: | The dehydroxylation of Zn free and 4 mol% Zn CaP powder was investigated using thermogravimetric analysis over the range of room temperature to 1200 °C. The kinetic result of dehydroxylation of Zn free and 4 mol% Zn CaP was calculated by means of the Ozawa–Flynn–Wall method. The XRD result indicated that the amount of Zn incorporated in HA lattice influences the phase stability of HA as it decreases with an increase in Zn concentration. According to calculated activation energy and conversion degree, the kinetics of HA dehydroxylation was identified, which included four successive conversion stages kinetically controlled by different rate-controlling processes. The dehydroxylation analysis of TG/DTG data show that Zn incorporation in HA lattice influences the phase stability of HA. |
