| Abstract Scope |
Hardystonite is currently recognized as a biocompatible bio-ceramic material for a range of medical applications. In this study, pure nano-crystalline hardystonite powder was prepared by mechanochemical synthesis of zinc oxide, silicate oxide, and egg shell in a planetary ball mill followed by sintering. The effect of time and sintering temperature on the formation mechanism of nano- hardystonite was studied. It was found that pure nano-crystalline hardystonite powder formation occurred following 20h of milling and subsequent sintering at 1000˚C for 3h. The measured crystallite size of powder was found to be around 30nm. |
