The next stage was sintering process, using 6 level temperatures of 550C, 600C, 650C, 700C, 750C, 800 and followed by XRD analysis.The results showed that calcination at 1000C for 5 h demonstrated the efficiency of 41.99%.The intensity peak of calcination of the BCB was found at 2: 32.5250, 19.7200 and 21.1200 (before calcination) and 32.5187, 33.5626 and 33.0000 (after calcination).Sintering condition demonstrated significant effects on HAp yield.We also found that sintering process at 700C (97.2%) was the most optimum temperature to produce HAp from BCB. ## Keywords - Calcination - Sintering - Materials science - Precipitation - Composite number - Chemical engineering - Metallurgy - Composite material - Chemistry - Catalysis - Meteorology - Biochemistry - Engineering - Physics --- Sumber: Discover Unhas — RIMS Universitas Hasanuddin.
