Abstract : Hydroxyapatite (HAp) powder was successfully preparation by using biowaste eggshells. These shell were transform to calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2) reacted with ortho-phosphoric acid (H3PO4) as the precursors for sol-gel method. The effect of ageing temperature on the physical properties was studied at room temperature and 100 ºC. The synthesized HAp was characterized by Fourier Transfrom Infrared spectrometer (FTIR), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and Energy Dispersive X-Ray spectroscopy (EDS). The Results showed that obtained HAps were high purity and cylinder shape. Crystalline structure of HAp was increased at 100 ºC 24 h and had mole ratio of Ca : P = 1.97.
