Investigation of morphological and dieletric properties of HA-based biomaterials
Abstract
Dielectric properties is a measure of the interaction of materials with electromagnetic fields. When people are exposed to non-ionizing radiation (near ultraviolet rays, visible light, infrared, microwave, radio waves, low frequency and radio frequency (long wave)), such interactions take place in the human body at various levels of organization and can initiate biological responses. These biological effects may or may not be desirable, but they need to be well understood in order to benefit from their full potential and beneficial effects for the purposes and protection of human health. Dielectric spectroscopy, or the study of the frequency dependence of dielectric properties, helps to elucidate such interaction mechanisms at the cellular and molecular level. Therefore, in this study, HAp-based Sr-doped powder samples, which are biomaterials compatible with the human body, will be prepared with the help of the hydrothermal method, turned into pellets, and their dielectric properties will be examined. The changes in the dielectric properties of pure and 3% Sr-doped HAp powders depending on the 10-hour reaction time were examined.
