Porcine bone was used to obtain natural hydroxyapatite (HA) by heat breakdown without any
chemical processing. The ideal temperature for HA synthesis was determined to be 750 °C for six
hours. The excellent purity and crystallinity of synthesized HA were validated by XRD and FTIR
studies. Additionally, up to 1200 °C was not mentioned in the transition of the produced HA to other
stages. While the DSC study revealed no physic-chemical events throughout the measurement period,
the TG curve indicated a minor loss of mass at 950 °C. The many particles in the structure of natural
HA, including as spheres, scales, and rods, were visible in FE-SEM pictures. The Ca/P ratio of the
synthetic HA is 1.64, which is close to the theoretical value of 1.67, according to EDX analysis.
Overall, the study's findings supported the effectiveness of using heat to remove the natural HA from
pig bone
