Thermal changes in synthetic apatites (Aps) at calcination up to 1000°C were studied by TG/DTA, FTIR and XRD. The Aps containing CO
3 2-, SO
4 2-, F
-, and Na
+ substitutions were precipitated from aqueous solutions. Reorganization of CO
3 2- and SO
4 2-substituted Ap structure takes place in a temperature range of 600-930°C and the substitutes are displaced. The temperature of the changes decreases with an increase in F content in Ap. In F containing Ap SO
4 2- displaces in one-step and CaSO
4 is formed. From hydroxyapatite structure SO
4 2- disengages continuously up to 1000°C. CO
2 evolves in 1-3 steps. If C/P≈0.3, most of CO
2 (70%) evolves at 700-800°C and CaO [Ca(OH)
2] is formed. If C/P≈0.1, most of CO
2 evolves at 830°C.
