Abstract	The kinetics of bone apatite crystallisation are examined using a novel approach to obtain quantitative, direction dependence features such as growth rate and activation energy. X-ray diffraction was employed for analysis of bovine, porcine and ‘anorganic’ bone specimens. Apatite coherence length was utilised as the independent variable within a Johnson–Mehl–Avrami (JMA) model. A direction averaged crystallisation activation energy of 183 ± 8 kJ mol$^{−1}$ was observed for the three bone groups. The Johnson–Mehl–Avrami ‘n’ exponent decreased with increasing temperature for all bone groups, indicating that apatite crystallisation changes to a diffusion limited process at higher temperatures. The results revealed little evidence to support any organic component ‘protective’ effect, and, on the contrary indicated that the organic matrix promotes apatite crystallisation.
