On the surface effects of citrates on nano-apatites: evidence of a decreased hydrophilicity
Abstract The surface structure and hydrophilicity of synthetic nanocrystalline apatite with strongly bound citrates on their surface are here investigated at the molecular level, by combining advanced IR spectroscopy, microgravimetry and adsorption microcalorimetry. Citrate are found to form unident...
