Na₄Ca₂P₄O₁₄ is a calcium sodium phosphate ceramic compound belonging to the family of inorganic phosphate materials. This compound is primarily of research and developmental interest for biomedical applications, where phosphate-based ceramics are investigated as alternatives to synthetic hydroxyapatite for bone scaffolding and tissue engineering. The material's appeal lies in its tunable composition—by varying the sodium and calcium ratios—to tailor solubility and bioactivity, making it potentially suitable for resorbable implants where controlled degradation is desired.
