Abstract

The synthetic biomateriasl such as Hydroxyapatite (HAp) Ca10 (PO4)6 (OH)2 plays an facinating role as implants in human bone replacement. HAp is a calcium phosphate having similar morphology and composition to the human hard tissues in with stoichiometric Ca/P ratio of 1.67. It is widely used in bone tissue engineering and dental applications due to their biocompatibility, biodegradability and bioactivity. The HAp has vital role in the field of biomedical engineering and stimulates osteoblast proliferation. This present research includes synthesis of biomimetic nano hydroxyapatite from facile sol gel process and surface modified by DC Glow discharge plasma. The prepared samples are exposed to air plasma for different exposure time with electrode potential of 400V. The samples was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Energy dispersive X - ray (EDX) . Plasma treatment is an ecofriendly and economical technique for the surface modification of this synthesized biomaterial.
