CFT Ceramic Fluoroapatite Resin

• Product Overview: CFT Ceramic Fluoroapatite, Ca10(PO4)6F2, is a rigid, spherical macroporous support used in the purification of biologically active compounds. CFT Ceramic Fluoroapatite Resin is a composite of fluoroapatite and hydroxyapatite prepared by chemically converting hydroxyapatite nanocrystals to fluoroapatite with a fluorine reagent.
