A P-31 refocused INADEQUATE pulse sequence has been used in combination with XRD to identify and quantify the crystalline phases present in a ternary sodium calcium phosphate ceramic of composition (CaO)(0.4)(Na2O)(0.1)(P2O5)(0.5). Both the NMR and XRD identified the two main phases present as NaCa(PO3)(3) and beta-Ca(PO3)(2). A third unidentified calcium phosphate phase was also observed by MAS NMR, featuring a chain of six crystallographically distinct PO4 units, the P-31 MAS NMR chemical shifts of which have been identified in the correct sequence along the chain.
