Hydroxyapatite (HAp) nanoparticles from limestone were successfully synthesized using the precipitation method. HAp synthesis was carried out with variations in the aging time of 12, 24, 36, and 48 hours with sonication treatment. The HAp nanoparticles structure was characterized using FTIR, XRD, an...
