Abstract
The aims of this study were to prepare natural hydroxyapatite from fish scales (FsHAp) for potential use as a filler in polymer. The FsHAp was prepared from Tilapia fish scales using thermal method. The FsHAp was milled for 48 h and dried by spray method. The morphology was characterized using field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) which showed irregular shape of FsHAp particles with particle size around 7 μm. The analysis of FsHAp was carried out using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) to confirm chemical structure of FsHAp.
