Infrared studies of apatites. I. Vibrational assignments for calcium, strontium, and barium hydroxyapatites utilizing isotopic substitution
TLDR
In this article, the infrared spectra of powdered strontium and barium hydroxyapatites and their deuterated analogs were reported at 48 and 185 deg in the 4000-200cm-/sup 1/ region.Abstract:
The infrared spectra of powdered calcium hydroxyapatite isotopically substituted with D, /sup 18/O, /sup 44/Ca, and /sup 48/Ca and infrared spectra of powdered strontium and barium hydroxyapatites and their deuterated analogs are reported at 48 and - 185 deg in the 4000-200cm-/sup 1/ region. Band assignments, based on isotopic frequency shifts, band intensity, band temperature dependency, and comparisons between corresponding bands of these structurally related apatites are presented for the above and other apatites.
