CONTROL OF PARTICLE ORIENTATION OF HYDROXYAPATITE UNDER A HIGH MAGNETIC FIELD

抄録

A hydroxyapatite is the main component of a human's body and teeth, and a crystal orientation is required because it has different properties for each plane. In this study, a hexagonal rod-like powder was used. The aqueous suspension was prepared and was slipcast with and without a high magnetic field. The particle orientation was confirmed by the XRD patterns on the planes parallel and perpendicular to the direction of the magnetic field. It is confirmed that the particles orientate with the c-plane parallel to the magnetic field.
