Description

Fluor-Hydroxylapatite is a specialized bioceramic material that combines the biocompatibility of hydroxyapatite with the enhanced chemical stability and biological properties imparted by fluoride ions. This compound is critical for applications requiring superior resistance to acid dissolution and improved integration with hard tissues. It is primarily utilized by manufacturers in the biomedical, dental, and advanced materials sectors for developing next-generation implants, bone graft substitutes, and bioactive coatings.

Application

• Biomedical Implants: A key component in the fabrication of bioactive coatings for orthopedic and dental implants to promote osseointegration.
• Bone Graft Substitutes: Used as a synthetic bone graft material in reconstructive and maxillofacial surgery due to its osteoconductive properties.
• Dental Composites & Cements: Incorporated into restorative materials and luting agents to enhance durability and fluoride release for caries prevention.
• Tissue Engineering Scaffolds: Serves as a bioactive matrix in engineered scaffolds for bone tissue regeneration.
• Chromatography Media: Utilized as a stationary phase in protein purification and biomolecule separation processes.
• Research & Development: Employed as a standard or model compound in studies of biomineralization, fluoride kinetics, and material science.

Quality Control

Our Fluor-Hydroxylapatite is produced under stringent quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and performance. Each lot undergoes comprehensive analysis, including phase purity (XRD), fluoride content, and particle size distribution. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting all critical parameters are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); containers must be kept tightly sealed to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect performance.
