A mechanism and technological process for synthesizing nano-sized
crystalline hydroxyapatite. In particular, for producing nano-sized
crystalline hydroxyapatite whose particles have nano dimensions in length
"l", width "d" and thickness "h", wherein "h" is practically
corresponding to the size of one transmission of crystallographic cell a
method is disclosed involving the steps of mixing and homogenizing a
suspension comprising calcium hydroxide with an amount of phosphoric acid
within a first reactor thereby adjusting a defined alkaline pH-value of
the resulting mixture, feeding the mixture into a second reactor for
causing phase transformations of the mixture and feeding the mixture into
a third reactor for providing a suspension by adding a suspension of
calcium hydroxide to the mixture to then feed the suspension into the
first reactor, whereby each of these steps is cyclically carried out in
continuous periodical conditions within at least three stages thereby
producing nano-sized crystalline particles of pure hydroxyapatite as a
solid phase.
