The main objective of this work was to study the structural stabilization of calcium apatites where the Ca2+ ions were substituted for Sr2+ in increasing concentrations (0%, 20%, 40%, 60%, 80% e 100%) via ionic co-substitutions. Two distinct syntheses were proposed for comparative purposes: a standard synthesis using counter ions which were not easily incorporated into the apatite structure (NH4+/NO3-) and another one, in which counter ions that can be easily incorporated into the structure (Na+/Cl-) were used. It was observed that Sr2+ ions linearly replaced Ca2+ in the apatite structure, leading to a linear growth of the lattice parameters as well as the unit cell volume for both syntheses. The coexistence of the two phases (calcium apatite and strontium apatite) was suggested only for the samples before calcination at intermediate concentrations (40% and 60%). After calcination, only the samples synthesized in the presence of NH4+/NO3- presented phase transformation, generating calcium and/or strontium phosphates. In contrast, the samples synthesized in the presence of Na+/Cl- formed a solid solution after calcination, having Ca2+ and Sr2+ shared the same apatite lattice. It was shown that the insertion of Sr2+ into the calcium apatite induced the introduction of Cl- ions into the structure. At the same time, Na+ ions were also observed in the structure. Thus, it was evidenced that such elements played an important role in the thermal stabilization of the apatite synthesized in this work.
