Chicken eggshell is a typical example of product-specific waste in the food industry. High content of calcium makes it an attractive precursor material for the synthesis of calcium phosphates that can be used in bone regeneration applications. So far, the use of chicken eggshells for the synthesis of amorphous calcium phosphate and low-crystalline apatite has received little attention. In the present study, we synthesized amorphous calcium phosphate and low-crystalline apatite by using eggshells as a source of Ca2+ ions and investigated the possibilities to densify the synthesized calcium phosphates by uniaxial compaction at room temperature.
