Abstract
Hydroxyapatite (HAP) nanoparticles with different morphologies, such as nanorods, nanospheres, and their mixtures were successfully synthesized by microemulsion method with soluble additive. Their adsorption capacity for Cr3+ ion was investigated. Most of the Cr3+ were absorbed by HAP within 60 min. The adsorption capacity of the HAP nanospheres was the best, and the maximum Cr3+ removal ratio was 96.4%, revealing that the metal ions adsorption by HAP is dependent on the morphology of its particles.
