| Abstract | In an attempt to synthesize hydroxyapatite (HAP)/polymer composites, HAP crystallization was investigated in solution in the presence of ionic synthetic polymers. The side groups of the polymers used include carboxylate, dihydrogen phosphate, sulfate, and primary amine. Spontaneous HAP precipitation and amorphous-crystalline transformation occurring in both the presence or absence of ionic polymers were studied by measuring the solution turbidity change and titrating the released protons, respectively. The rates of HAP nucleation and growth were determined from an induction period before onset of crystallization and the subsequent propagation of HAP crystallites. The added anionic and cationic polymers, were found to suppress the crystallization in a concentration-dependent manner. An exception was a concentrated poly(acrylic acid), which was precipitated by calcium ion binding to accelerate the nucleation and the growth of HAP crystallites. These results suggest that a molecular interaction is operative between the ionic polymer chains and the growing HAP crystallites. Infrared spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis revealed that the HAP precipitated in the presence of ionic polymers incorporated the polymer chains in the HAP microcrystalline aggregates. Based on these findings, HAP/poly(acrylic acid) composites were prepared through in situ HAP crystallization in the presence of poly(acrylic acid). Tensile testing of the composites and electron microscopic observation of their fractured surfaces revealed that the composite prepared through this wet process was superior to that obtained by simple physical mixing with respect to the wet state mechanical properties and homogeneity in mixing. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
