    Hydroxyapatite (HA) is one of the main components in bone which functions to enhance its cell regeneration. Synthetically produced HA, based on seashell resources has higher biocompatibility, and in high demand especially in bone tissue engineering. However, the secondary phase of HA production are calcium oxide and carbonate, which impedes its performance. HA is synthesized via wet chemical precipitation and optimization were done to obtain nearly pure HA by manipulating the pH value and sintering temperature. It is expected that the combination of these parameters will optimize the amount of secondary phase hence attained nearly stoichiometric or pure HA. HA powders were analyzed through Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectrometry (EDX).
