Bioinspiration synthesis of hydroxyapatite nanoparticles using eggshells as a calcium source: Evaluation of Congo red dye adsorption potential

Hydroxyapatite nanoparticles (HAp NPs) were synthesized with Muntingia calabura leaf extract as solvent and eggshell waste as a calcium source. The synthesized nanoparticles were irregular rod-like, as visualized by FESEM, while EDX and XPS studies confirmed the formation of hydroxyapatite. The synt...
