Nanosized hydroxyapatite powder has been synthesized by the mechanochemical method using a dry mixture of calcium hydroxide and diammonium hydrogen phosphate. The effect of mechanochemical process on powder properties has been investigated. Three rotation speeds of 170 rpm, 270 rpm and 370 rpm hav...
