Abstract. Electrochemical method has been developed to produce hydroxyapatite (HA) powders. Synthesis of hydroxyapatite particles was carried out from a homogeneous solution. The homogeneous solution was contained of Na2H2EDTA.2H2O, KH2PO4 and CaCl2 on 0.25/0.25/0.15 M. Water reduction at cathode to form OH- ion is very substantial in formation of hydroxyapatite. The OH- ions causes the release of Ca2+ ions and change the equilibrium phosphate for the formation reaction of HA. The problem of electrochemical method is OH- ions move away from the cathode due to the difference in charge. This condition decrease the productivity of the formation of HA because OH- ions react with H+ to form H2O. In this work, we develop new method electrosynthesis of HA with 2 chambers system. The electrolysis use ion exchange resin to separate the OH- ions and H+ ions formed. The effect of current density to HA product was studied. HA product analysed with XRD. We conclude that the electrosynthesis hydroxyapatite with ion exchange resin more effective than without ion exchange resin. The bigger the current density, the more pure HA formed. …show more content…

The formula of hydroxyapatite is Ca5(PO4)3OH but usually written Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2 to denote that the crystal unit cell comprises two entities. The calcium hydroxyapatite use as bone substitute materials because of their chemical similarity to the component of bones and teeth of mammalian. Calsium hydroxyapatite also used as fillers and coatings for repairing of large osseous defects

Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to titrate an unknown solid acid (KH2PO4) with a standardized sodium hydroxide solution. After recording and plotting the data, the acid’s equivalence point will be recorded once the color changes. Using the equivalence point, the halfway point will be calculated, which is used to determine the acid’s equilibrium constant. The acid’s calculated equilibrium constant will be compared with the acid’s established pKa value.

The Hydrolysis reaction included an acidic environment and an acidic catalyst to make the reaction occur faster and initiate the reaction as well. The acidic environment is required in order to add the hydrogen and oxygen onto the carbonyl groups in the final product. Dicarboxylic acid is not very soluble in water/acetone which ultimately resulted in larger yield of product. 2.

Results The data obtained from the experiment had undergone statistical analysis using t-tests and the results were recorded in Figure 1.0 and Figure 1.1 above. According to the data obtained in Figure 1.0, the p-value is less than 0.05 in all 5 treatment solutions. It is also shown intensity Figure 1.0, the calculated t-value of each concentration of NaHCO3 in each treatment is greater than the critical t-value.

Loubani1 Reem Loubani Mrs. Dina Daher Chemistry Sunday December 25th, 2016 Plastic Synthesis Polymers are large molecules composed of smaller molecules called monomers. Polymers are found almost everywhere around you. Some of them are naturally occurring, such as proteins, starch, silk, and wool, while others, such as nylon, Teflon, and plastics, are synthesized in labs to yield important products. Plastic is a material widely known by people; it is used in an enormous range of products. However, only few people know how plastics are formed.

Bones are made up of 25% water and 75% solids which consists of cells and mineral salts (calcium and phosphorous) Bone Tissue Bone tissue is a hard dense connective tissue. It has a honeycomb type matrix internally which helps to give the bone rigidity. There are two types of bone tissue, cortical bone and cancellous bone. Bone cells develop new bone tissue and continual bone remodelling, maintaining the bones and regulation of minerals in the body.

To analyze the acetanilide product of the reaction, 1H NMR and IR were used. Results, Discussions, and Conclusions In this experiment, acetanilide was synthesized via nucleophilic acyl substitution from both acetic anhydride and aniline. During this reaction, aniline acts as the nucleophile and acyl (CH3CO-) group from acetic anhydride acts as the electrophile.

My Soar major is math, science, and technoglogy. Dental hygeine is specifically related to science, and there is technologies avaiable to help keep your teeth clean. This is a very unique project because I wont just be researching the technology that has already been made, but I will be researching and surveying kids and how they feel about the dentist, and if/how they take care of their teeth. How has the technology used in dental care improved in the last century, and how has it helped kids 4-10 in preventing cavities? Getting braces opened a new interest for me.

The next best thing to having your own healthy, natural teeth is to have affordable dental implants. A little history Dental implants have improved dramatically over the decades but the idea isn't a new one. Archeologists have found evidence of dental implants as far back as 600 A.D. - with teeth being replaced by seashells, jade and even carved stones.

Introduction The goal of the experiment is to examine how the rate of reaction between Hydrochloric acid and Sodium thiosulphate is affected by altering the concentrations. The concentration of Sodium thiosulfate will be altered by adding deionised water and decreasing the amount of Sodium thiosulphate. Once the Sodium thiosulphate has been tested several times. The effect of concentration on the rate of reaction can be examined in this experiment.

According to ASTM D 653 – 03, “fly ash is the finely divided residue that results from the combustion of ground or powdered coal and that is transported by flue gasses”. According to Makusa (2012), fly ash belongs to secondary binders that contain only little amount of cementitious properties. With the existence of fly ash, the water content of soils can be lowered, thus reducing the shrink-swell potential. Other than that, fly ash helps in the increment of workability, stiffness and strength of soils through the chemical reaction.
