Solid solutions of Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2–xFx, x = 0.0; 0.2; 0.5; 1.0; 1.5; 2.0 were obtained by reacting Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2, Ca3(PO4)2 and СаF2 in the course of a solid-state synthesis reaction at 1200 °C for 3 h in air. Synthesis products were identified using X-ray phase and X-ray fluorescence analysis, infrared and impedance spectroscopy. According to the results of X-ray phase analysis, the synthesized solid solutions had the structure of hexagonal apatite, the extreme members of the series of solid solutions corresponded to the JCPDS standards (Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2 – No. 9-0432; Ca10(PO4)6F2 – No. 00-003-0736). Vibrational spectra of solid solutions corresponded to the apatite structure with characteristic absorption bands of tetrahedra of РО4 3–, ОН– groups. An increase in the fluorine content in solid solutions was accompanied by a typical shift of the 631 cm–1 band to the region of large values of wave numbers, and its intensity successively decreased. With an increase in the fluorine content in solid solutions at a frequency of 1 kHz, the dielectric loss tangent did not undergo significant changes, and the permittivity slightly decreased. Based on the results of physicochemical analysis, the fundamental relationships “composition – structure – properties” for the studied synthesis products were determined. The influence of the composition and synthesis conditions on the crystallographic (elementary cell parameters) and electrical (dielectric permittivity, dielectric loss tangent, conductivity) characteristics of the synthesized solid solutions was assessed. Solid solutions of fluorine-substituted calcium hydroxyapatite are promising for use in medical practice.

1. Introduction

Calcium phosphates (CPs) are an inorganic component of mineralized bone and dental tissues of mammals [1]. The growing interest in biocompatible CPs in recent years is largely due to their characteristics of biocompatibility, bioactivity, and the absence of toxic and allergenic properties. This opens up broad prospects for the use of such compounds as materials for medical preparations: implants, dental materials, drug delivery systems, etc. Practice has already proven the effectiveness of using such materials in orthopedics and reconstructive medicine, for coating implants, as composite components, bone cements in maxillofacial and orthopedic surgery and dental preparations in the form of toothpastes and mouth rinses [2-4].

The use of synthetic CPs was first shown for the regeneration of bone tissue defects in experimental animals in 1920 [2]. Later, CP-based bioceramics were successfully used for the reconstruction of bone defects in medicine [3]. Biocompatible synthetic CPs with an apatite structure are a crystal-chemical analogue of the inorganic component of mineralized tissues of mammals and form a large group of crystalline and amorphous compounds [5-7]. Typical representatives of this group of compounds are calcium hydroxyapatite Ca^PO^^^^ (HA) and calcium fluorapatite Ca10(PO4)6F2 (FA).

Fluorine is an important constituent element in the human diet, essential for the growth of bones and teeth [8-10]. The mineralized phase of native hard tissues contains a certain amount of fluorine, which replaces OH groups in the apatite structure (Fig. 1) [11]. FA is characterized by properties of

biocompatibility, bioactivity, antibacterial behavior, high stability, and good strength characteristics [12-16]. The substitution of OH- groups of HA for fluorine ions F increases the strength of the ceramic material, reduces the rate of its dissolution, increasing the stability in the biological environment [17-19]. The presence of fluorine in bone tissue and tooth enamel, saliva and blood plasma has been proven [20]. The incorporation of fluorine into the HA composition in mineralized tissues has a positive effect associated with an increase in the response of osteoblasts, promotes their differentiation and proliferation [18, 19], and accelerates the process of biomineralization and growth of bone tissue [16, 17]. At the same time, fluorine ions, showing extraordinary chemical and biological activity, are able to easily penetrate into various types of body cells, cause metabolic disorders, leading to the destruction of liver, kidney, and brain tissues [10].

There is a continuous series of Calo(PO4)6(ОН)2-xFx (FHA) solid solutions [21], which can be synthesized using various processes [22]. A number of methods for the synthesis of FHA are known, including precipitation from aqueous solutions, hydrolysis, hydrothermal, sol-gel, etc. [23-26]. At the same time, the problem of finding effective methods with reproducible results that allow scaling up the production of FHA-based materials for medical use is still relevant.

In this paper, we present the results of using the solid-phase synthesis of FHA solid solutions and analyze the relationships between composition, synthesis conditions, structure, and properties for materials of this type.

2. Materials and Methods 2.1. Materials, synthesis, sample preparation

Ca(OH)2, Ca3(P04)2 and CaF2 (crystalline) of analytical purity (Merck, Germany), H3P04, and distilled water were used as starting reagents for FHA synthesis. The reagents Ca(OH)2, Ca3(P04)2 were preliminarily dried (200 °C, 1 h), the CaF2 preparation underwent the procedure of additional grinding. HA was obtained in accordance with the neutralization reaction

5Ca(OH)2 + 3H3PO4 ^ Ca3(P04)3(0H)| + 9H2O

in air conditions at 37 °C according to previously described procedures [21]. The precipitate was kept for 1 day and then filtered off with a Buchner funnel. The resulting HA powder was dried in air (room temperature, 12 h), then calcined at 900 °C for 1 h and left to cool in an oven.

Fluorine-substituted FHA of Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2-XFX, x = 0.0; 0.2; 0.5; 1.0; 1.5; 2.0, designated as FHA00, FHA 10, FHA25, FHA50, FHA75 and FHA100, respectively, were obtained from a mixture of uniaxially compressed mixtures of preformed HA, Ca3(P04)2 and CaF2 during the synthesis reaction

(1 - x) Ca5(PO4)3(OH) + 1.5x Ca3(PO4)2 +

+ 0.5x CaF2 ^ Ca5(PO4)3(OH)1-xFx

in air conditions at a temperature of 1200 °C for 3 hours. Reagents for a sample with a total weight of 8 g were calculated for each degree (x) of fluorination. The sintered synthesis products were cooled together with the furnace, then crushed to obtain samples for physicochemical analysis.

2.2. Methods of analysis and characterization

X-ray phase analysis and determination of crystallographic characteristics were performed using a DRON-4 automatic diffractometer (LNPO Burevestnik, RF) (CuKa-radiation, graphite monochromator). X-ray diffraction of powders was observed in the range of angles 29 = 20 - 85° with a step of 0.02 degrees and a counting time of 1 s for each step.

Spectroscopic data in the IR region 400-4000 cm-1 on powdered samples in suspension in paraffin oil at room temperature were obtained using a SPECORD-80M spectrometer (Karl Zeisse, Germany).

The chemical analysis of the synthesized samples was carried out using the X-ray fluorescence method, VRA-33 spectrometer (Karl Zeisse, Germany).

Dielectric permittivity (e), dielectric loss tangent (tg5), and electrical conductivity (o) of the synthesized samples were measured in air in the dynamic mode with a temperature change at a rate of ~0.5 deg-s-1 and a measuring voltage of < 15 V using an automatic AC bridge. For research, the samples were prepared in the form of cylindrical tablets without adding a binder during uniaxial pressing of powdered synthesis products. The tablets were fired in air at a temperature of ~ 800 °C. Measuring electrodes were applied by burning silver paste at 600 °C.

3. Results and Discussion

The diffraction patterns of the synthesized samples corresponded to the structural type of apatite (see Fig. 1). The presence of foreign phases (CaC03, CaO, Ca3(P04)2) in the obtained synthesis products was not detected. The synthesis at elevated temperatures provided the synthesis products with a high degree of crystallinity. An increase in the content of fluorine ions in the composition of solid solutions Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2-xFx was accompanied by a decrease in the values of the unit cell parameters a and c (Table 1). This decrease was not linear (Fig. 2): up to x = 1.6, the unit cell parameters a and c remained at the level of the values for HA (x = 0), decreasing to lower values only for FA (x = 2.0). The Ca/P ratio in the synthesis products changed insignificantly (Table 2) and corresponded to the values given in [28] for stoichiometric HA, FA, and bone tissue apatite (Table 3).

The deviation from the linear behavior of the lattice parameters a and c of the apatite structure (Fig. 2) can be associated with the effect of carbonization during synthesis at high temperatures. In this case, the formation of a francolite type phase (Ca, Mg, Na, K)5 [(P, QO4MF, OH) is possible (Fig. 3) [29]. This assumption is supported by the presence in the X-ray diffraction patterns of FHA solid solutions (x = 0.5; 1.0) of reflections that are not characteristic of the apatite structure. The formation of the francolite phase seems to be characteristic of solid-phase synthesis at elevated temperatures and does not take place during the synthesis during precipitation from aqueous solutions [22]. In the structure of francolite, B-type substitutions are most

3-

likely, associated with the substitution of PO4

2-

groups by CO3 ions and leading to a decrease in the a/c ratio of the apatite lattice parameters.

Vibrational spectra in the IR range of the synthesized solid solutions were typical of compounds with the apatite structure [30] (Table 4, Fig. 4). In the region of 3573 cm-1, there was a band of stretching vibrations of the OH- hydroxyl group, the intensity of which decreased as the content of fluorine ions in Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2-xFx solid solutions increased (Table 4). It was absent in the vibrational spectra of FHA100, which agrees with the literature data for FHA100 [31, 32]. The vibrational spectra in the range of 500-800 cm-1 are characterized by two strong bands in the range of 571 and 601 cm-1, which belong to the v4 mode of the P04 tetrahedron of the apatite. The band at 631 cm-1 corresponds to the libration mode of OH- groups in Ca-channels. The position and intensity of this band depend on the degree of incorporation of fluorine ions into linear OH- chains [33]. With an increase in the fluorine content, this band shifted to the region of high wave numbers, and its intensity successively decreased.

Specific values of the electrical characteristics (permittivity s, dielectric loss tangent tan S, electrical conductivity o) of the studied samples of FHA solid solutions could vary slightly depending on the conditions of sample preparation. However, the general nature of the dependences on the composition and frequency of the electromagnetic field, which is determined by the structural characteristics, composition, and typical types of defects that arise during the preparation of FHA samples, was generally repeated.

The analysis of the results of electrical measurements (Figs. 5 and 6) seems to be possible on the basis of the crystal structure, composition, and

emerging defects in the structure of the investigated FHA solid solutions. In accordance with the structural data [34], the features of the dependences of e, tgS, and o on the FHA composition and the frequency of the electromagnetic field are determined to the greatest extent by the presence in the HA structure of weakly bound hydroxyl OH- groups located perpendicular to the Ca-triangles that form channels in the apatite structure. [34]. With an increase in the content of fluorine ions in the FHA composition, conditions for easier reorientation of OH- groups are created in the apatite structure, which leads to a decrease in the dielectric permittivity s of FHA solid solutions. For FHA100 s have the smallest values.

A slight change in e at a frequency of 1 kHz (Fig. 5) in the course of changing the FHA composition was not accompanied by a change in dielectric losses. The values of tgS throughout the range of changes remained practically unchanged.

Only the conductivity o of FHA solid solutions underwent a rather significant change. In the range of x = 1.0, FHA50 had a conductivity maximum (Fig. 5). The general mechanism of conduction in HA

and its solid solutions is still not fully elucidated. So

2+

far, only the fact that Ca ions do not contribute to the conductivity seems quite certain [35, 36]. It is assumed [37] that the electrical conductivity in

HA-based materials may be due to the migration of

2+

OH- groups in the center of the Ca triangles along the c-axis.

Measurements in an alternating electric field give grounds to assume that the charge carriers are OH- groups [36]. However, a number of authors [38] suggest a protonic (H+) character of conduction along

OH- chains in the apatite structure, as well as

2+

participation of O ions in the conduction processes. The validity of the first of the listed assumptions is confirmed, for example, by the sensory moisture

characteristic of HA. Proton conductivity between neighboring OH- ions is considered [39, 40] according to the scheme OH- + OH- ^ O2- + HOH

or as proton jumps between OH- groups through

3-

neighboring PO4 ions. In this case, since the distance between neighboring OH- ions seems to be too large (0.344 nm) [35, 38], proton interaction with

3-

neighboring PO4 ions is preferable (0.307 nm).

The character of conductivity is influenced to a certain extent by the prehistory of the samples. In particular, the dehydroxylation and nonstoichiometry of HA that occur during thermal treatment during the synthesis of FHA and form vacancies at the hydroxyl position as a result of the reaction in accordance with the equation [38]:

Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2 ^

^ Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2-2xOx(^)x + xH2O (g)t,

where x < 1, □ - vacancy.

In a number of cases ions

were considered responsible for the conductivity in different temperature ranges. Thus, the conductivity at room temperature was assumed to be due to the migration of H+ from adsorbed water, and OH- ions contributing at an elevated temperature. In particular, OH- vacancies formed during dehydration can prevent H+ conduction and facilitate conduction at the expense of OH- [35].

Accounting for these factors greatly complicates the unambiguous interpretation of the frequency dependences of the electrical characteristics of the FHA (Fig. 6). In accordance with the results obtained, FA does not show significant changes in s with frequency. To the greatest extent, the effect of the electric field frequency affects £ in FHA50.

Samples FHA50 and FHA100 showed dielectric losses with a maximum in the region off = 5 kHz. As the field frequency increased to 50 kHz, the FHA50 and FHA100 losses began to decrease after f = 5 kHz (Fig. 5). In this case, the conductivity of both samples (FHA50, FHA100) with an increase in the frequency of the applied electric field increased at first not very significantly in the frequency range f = 1-10 kHz, then it increased significantly in the range from 10 to 50 kHz.

The obtained results of electrical measurements of FHA solid solutions, among other applications, can be used, for example, to identify materials based on FHA solid solutions and implants based on them, as well as to determine the optimal modes of electrical stimulation of the implantation processes.

4. Conclusion

Under the conditions of solid-phase synthesis (1200 °C, 3 h) by the interaction of Ca^(PO4)6(OH)2, Ca3(PO4)2 and CaF2, solid solutions of the compositions Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2_xFx (FHA), x = 0.0; 0.2; 0.5; 1.0; 1.5; 2.0 (designation: FHA00, FHA10, FHA25, FHA50, FHA75 and FHA100).

The X-ray diffraction patterns of the synthesized FHA corresponded to the structural type of apatite; there were no foreign phases in the synthesis products. The structural characteristics of the obtained hydroxyapatite (FHA00) and fluorapatite (FHA 100) corresponded to the data of JCPDS nos. 09-0432 (HA) and 15-0876 (FA), respectively.

The results of vibrational IR spectroscopy are consistent with X-ray data and correspond to the structural type of apatite; all the bands characteristic

3__- 2-

of apatite (PO4 , OH , CO3 ) were present in the FHA spectra.

In the frequency range of an electromagnetic field of 1 kHz, the dielectric loss tangent tgS with an increase in the content of fluorine ions F- in FHA solid solutions remained practically unchanged, the values of the permittivity e decreased in the region x > 1.0, and the electrical conductivity o at x = 1.0 had a maximum, decreasing then with increasing values of x up to x = 2.

In the frequency range of the electromagnetic field up to 100 kHz, for the compositions of the FHA100 (x = 2) and FHA50 (x = 1) solid solutions, there is a slight decrease in the permittivity e and a multiple increase in the conductivity o. The frequency value of 60 kHz corresponds to anomalies in the behavior of the frequency dependence of the dielectric loss tangent tgS: for FHA50 this is a characteristic maximum, and for FHA 100 it is a break in the frequency dependence of tgS.

The results obtained can be used for directed synthesis of FHA solid solutions for medical use, identification of synthesis products, and selection of conditions for electrical action on such materials in the composition of medical preparations.
