The use of calcium phosphate phases as implant materials in forms such as ceramic hydroxyapatite (CHAP) and hydroxyapatite plasma‐coated implants (HPCTI) as well as the synthetic phases is now quite well established. Although conventional physical chemical charaterization methods such as X‐ray diffraction may indicate the exclusive presence of hydroxyapatite (HAP), there is little doubt that other calcium‐containing surface impurities play important roles in the initial reactions that take place when such materials are brought into contact with aqueous phases. These surface impurities usually dissolve rapidly with the release of excess calcium and hydroxide ions. Based on the constant composition (CC) method, the dual constant composition (DCC) approach has been developed for investigating the dissolution kinetics behavior of these apatitic materials in an attempt to characterize and modify the surfaces, and possibly to predict their behavior when placedin vivo.The results of this study confirm the presence of highly reactive heterogeneous calcium‐containing phases on the surface of materials such as CHAP and HPCTI, as evidenced by the release of appreciable amounts of calcium and hydroxyl ions upon introduction of these surfaces in saline solutions. Furthermore, these calcium phosphate phases exhibited a unique dissolution behavior when compared with synthetically prepared phases such as HAP and β‐tricalcium phosphate (β‐TCP), as suggested by the observation that they dissolve in solutions supersaturated with respect to HAP. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
