This material exhibits several problems of handling and preparation, which can be minimized by mixing the HAP with a suitable binder. In order to improve the phase structure, morphology and the dielectric properties, nanocrystalline hydroxyapatite was prepared by a microwave assisted solid-state reaction technique from Ca(OH)(2) and CaHPO4 powders. After milling the mixture was submitted to microwave radiation in a domestic microwave oven (f = 2.45 GHz-1 kW) during 15 and 30 min at 1000, 1100 and 1200 degrees C. The samples were analyzed by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), EDS (energy dispersive spectroscopy), Fr-IR spectroscopy. The dielectric properties were measured in the frequency range 1 Hz-30 MHz at several temperatures (250-350 K). The dielectric study in function of frequency, at 300 K, was made using the Modulus formalism (M* = 1/epsilon*) and a distribution of relaxation times was observed. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V.
