Hydroxylapatite, also called hydroxyapatite (HA), is a naturally occurring mineral form of calcium apatite with the formula Ca 5 (PO 4) 3 (OH), but is usually written Ca 10 (PO 4) 6 (OH) 2 to denote that the crystal unit cell comprises two entities.Hydroxylapatite is the hydroxyl endmember of the complex apatite group.The OH â ion can be replaced by fluoride, chloride or carbonate, producing fluorapatite or chlorapatite. It crystallizes in the hexagonal crystal system.ydroxylapatite is the hydroxyl endmember of the complex apatite group.

- Variety of the Apatite group where the phosphate radical (PO4) is partially replaced by a carbonate radical (CO3). It has a chemical formula of Ca5(PO4,CO3)3(OH,F). Also known as Carbonate-rich Apatite. Chlorapatite. - Individual member mineral of the Apatite group with chlorine being dominant in its structure. For a short period of time, it was renamed by the IMA as Apatite-(CaCl), but is now again favored again as Chlorapatite.
