PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an apparatus and a method for synthesizing calcium phosphate, in each of which different crystal morphologies and/or different compositions of the calcium phosphate can be controlled.SOLUTION: The apparatus 100 for synthesizing calcium phosphate includes: a first vessel 22 and a second vessel 32 in one of which one of a phosphoric acid-containing solution 20 and a calcium-containing solution 30 is housed and in the other of which the other thereof is housed a reactor 40 which is communicated with the first vessel while interposing a first feed pipe 16 therebetween and is communicated with the second vessel while interposing a second feed pipe 26 therebetween and into which the phosphoric acid-containing solution and the calcium-containing solution are fed respectively from the first vessel and the second vessel and control means 24, 28, 34, 38 for controlling feed rates of the phosphoric acid-containing solution and the calcium-containing solution to the reactor and controlling the temperature of the phosphoric acid-containing solution in the first vessel and that of the calcium-containing solution in the second vessel. At least one of the temperature and the feed rate is controlled by the control means so that at least two kinds of calcium phosphate compounds each having the crystal morphology different from each other and/or the composition different from each other can be synthesized.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1COPYRIGHT: (C)2016,JPO&INPIT【課題】異なる結晶形態及び/又は異なる組成を制御ことが可能な、リン酸カルシウムの合成装置及び合成方法の提供。【解決手段】リン酸含有溶液20及びカルシウム含有溶液30を夫々を収容する第1の容器22及び第2の容器32と、第1の容器及び第2の容器と第1供給管16及び第2供給管26を介して連通し、第1の容器及び第2の容器から夫々供給されるリン酸含有溶液及びカルシウム含有溶液を導入する反応器40と、リン酸含有溶液/カルシウム含有溶液の反応器への供給速度、第1の容器及び第2の容器におけるリン酸含有溶液/カルシウム含有溶液の温度、又はその両方を制御するための制御手段24,28,34,38とを備え、制御手段で上記温度及び供給速度の少なくとも一方を制御することにより、異なる結晶形態及び/又は異なる組成を有する少なくとも二種類のリン酸カルシウムを合成可能であるリン酸カルシウム合成装置100。【選択図】図1
