Tricalcium Phosphate Food Grade has a unique structure in that it is conductive along the hydroxide channels.
OH- ions lie at (1/4/,1/4,1/4) and (3/4/,3/4,3/4) on the c-axis and charge-carrying protons are responsible for the observed conductivities in M10(PO4)6(OH)2.
The H+ migration between the electroattractive ion (O2) to give molecular H2O in matrix channels carries charge and the resulting conductivity.
The unit cell consists of two triangular prismatic subcells forming a rhombic prism with vertical sides.
There are two horizontal mirror planes at the OH levels of 1/4 and 3/4 of the c-axis.
In addition, there is a center of inversion exactly in the center of each vertical face of each subcell.

Uses
Hydroxyapatite and Tricalcium Phosphate Food Grade are bioactive ceramic materials and they find applications as bone grafts, fillers and coating material for metal implants.
In the 1970s, Tricalcium Phosphate Food Grade was found that sintered calcium hydroxyapatite, (Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2 (abbreviated as CaHap), possessed excellent biocompatibility and nontoxicity with femur and mandible bones.
Since then, CaHap has been used as a biomaterial for artificial teeth and bones and as a filler for cements and polymers.
Today, bone fillers made of CaHap are widely used in the medical and dental fields.
In the 1980s, Tricalcium Phosphate Food Grade was found that sintered CaHap has a good compatibility with skin tissues.
Hence, percutaneous devices based on CaHap have been developed and applications have included continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis and intravenous hyperalimentation systems, blood pressure measurement and blood access for nutrition.
Recently, many researchers have studied the chemistry of apatites, particularly CaHap, and have found various applications, such as artificial teeth and bones, ion exchangers, adsorbents for chromatography to separate proteins and enzymes, catalysts, ionic conductors, temperature and gas sensors, etc.
Pharmaceutical Applications
Modified hydroxylapatite, also frequently called Tricalcium Phosphate Food Grade and better known as bone mineral, makes up ～50% of our bones.
Tricalcium Phosphate Food Grade is a natural form of the mineral calcium apatite, whose formula is usually denoted as Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2.
Modifications of Tricalcium Phosphate Food Grade can also be found in the teeth, and a chemically identical substance is often used as filler for replacement of bones, and so on.
Nevertheless, despite similar or identical chemical compositions, the response of the body to these compounds can be quite different.
