Description
Hydroxyapatite Micron Powder, Purity: 99.5+%, Size: 1–5 µm
Hydroxyapatite (HA), the mineral form of calcium apatite, is a biocompatible and bioactive ceramic material primarily responsible for the rigidity of bones and teeth. Our Hydroxyapatite Micron Powder offers outstanding purity (99.5+%) and precise control over particle size (1–5 µm), making it suitable for a wide range of biomedical and pharmaceutical applications.
With excellent chemical similarity to natural bone mineral, Hydroxyapatite is widely used in orthopedic implants, dental coatings, drug delivery, and bone tissue engineering. Its non-toxic and non-inflammatory nature allows it to integrate seamlessly with surrounding tissue, promoting bone growth and healing.
This premium-grade white powder also shows promise in oral care products such as toothpastes and early carious lesion treatments, thanks to its remineralizing effect on enamel.
