Abstract
Synthetic hydroxyapatites with low chlorine and fluorine contents have been prepared hydrothermally according to the reaction: Ca(s) (PO4)3 OH + xNH4 Cl or + xNH4F. The infrared spectra of these samples show th at the 3,498 cm-1 band of OH, Cl apatites and 3,545 cm-1 band of OH, F apatites make it possible to detect respectively 350 ppm of chlorine and 150 ppm of fluorine. A comparative infrared study of natural apati tes confirms that the 3,485 and 3,480 cm-1 bands must, be attributed t o the O-H...Cl hydrogen bond.
