Hydroxyapatite (HA) is one of the major compounds that play a major role in bone restoration. The skeletal bone of our body contains about 80% hydroxyapatite. Low stiffness and strong stiffness are a major problem for HA, after a lot of research and researchers have come to the conclusion that Hydroxyapatite is a bad thing it can't build a proper structure so adding graphene oxide and hydroxyapatite will improve the strength and durability of the material so that the flaws can be fixed, at last we have added a few other natural biomaterials which are used to increase cellular contact and are said to be an effective treatment for osteoporosis. Graphene oxide is a carbon-based material that provides a good durable for any other material used. In this article, we propose a unique method of preparing Graphene based Hydroxyapatite by Freeze Drying Method. This method is most promising for preparing for Hydroxyapatite in a very simple and elegant manner. After the entire preparation process the so formed HAP is characterized with FTIR analysis to confirm the molecular presence of the HAP.
