abstract = "Calcium hydroxyapatite (HAP) presents the main mineral component of human bones and teeth, and thus is widely used bioceramic material for thehard tissue repair and regeneration. The biological HAP is never found pure in nature butdoped with multiple therapeutic ions, such as Cu, Mg, Sr, Zn, etc., which are found to play important roles in bone metabolism and growth. Hence, foreign cations have been introduced into the synthetic calcium hydroxyapatite, in order to induce a specific biological response after implementation, such as osteogenesis, angiogenesis, improved cell attachment and proliferation. However, the presence of the cations leads to the lattice distortion of the calcium-hydroxyapatite, resulting in different physico-chemical and mechanical properties. The hydrothermal synthesis of calcium hydroxyapatite leads to nanosized rod-like particles, which were found to possess properties close to those of the biological HAP. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of hydrothermal synthesis parameters on physico-chemical and mechanical properties of mono- and binary cation-doped calcium hydroxyapatite by employing XRD, SEM and Hardness by Vickers tests. The temperature applied during the hydrothermal synthesis (150- 180 °C) was found to influence the hardness of the HAP based compacts sintered at 1200 °C.",
