Abstract: | We have conducted a computational study to investigate a number of possible routes for the incorporation of carbon into apatites.
Using density functional theory (DFT) we have calculated geometry optimised structures for fluor- and hydroxy-apatites with
and without various substitutions. We have studied several different carbonate substitutions, pure carbonate and pure formate
apatites, neutral carbon atoms occupying interstices, and carbon dioxide and acetylene absorbed in oxyapatite. |
