  • Publication number: 20090263497
    Abstract: The present invention provides a continuous process for producing calcium phosphate nanoparticles in a network mixer or static mixer reactor, fed by a calcium solution, a phosphorous solution and an alkaline solution and, optionally, one solvent or dispersing agent. The proposed process enables the micromixing control, which is essential to form nanometric structures, but it is also a determining factor in the crystals purity, crystallinity and morphology. The reactants distribution scheme at the inlet of the reactor and along the reactor, performed continuously or varying in time, is also a crucial factor to programme the pH of the reactant media along the reactor The calcium phosphate nanoparticles suspension that exits the reactor can be submitted to further aging, ultra-sounds, separation, drying, sintering and milling processes.
