Sonochemical synthesis, characterization and photocatalytic properties of hydroxyapatite nano-rods derived from mussel shells

•HAp nano-rods were successfully synthesized from mussel shells.•Sonochemical technique provides rapid and facile conversion process.•HAp nano-rods exhibited 30–80nm in length and 12–18nm in width.•Photodegradation of 86.8% Rhodamine B was achieved after 300min of UV illumination. In this paper, we...
