A new formulation of α-tricalcium phosphate (α-TCP) bone cement with controllable
hydration was developed by employing an internal polymeric gel network. Conjunction of …

Since their initial formulation in the 1980s, calcium phosphate cements (CPCs) have been
increasingly used as bone substitutes. This article provides an overview on the chemistry …

The present paper deals with the effect of adding SiC, TiO 2 and SiO 2 nanoparticles on
setting time, mechanical strength and hydraulic reactions of calcium phosphate cements …

Calcium phosphate cement (CPC) is highly promising for craniofacial and orthopedic repair
because of its ability to self‐harden in situ to form hydroxyapatite with excellent …

Calcium phosphate cements (CPCs) represent excellent bone substitute materials due to
their biocompatibility and injectability. However, their poor degradability and lack of …

Objectives Bioactive calcium phosphate cement (CPC) has been used widely to repair bone
defects because of its excellent biocompatibility and bioactivity. However, the poor handling …

Self-hardening calcium phosphate cements present ideal bone tissue substitutes from the
standpoints of bioactivity and biocompatibility, yet they suffer from (a) weak mechanical …

In this work, novel bioactive organic–inorganic composite bone cements consisting of
tricalcium silicate (C3S), sodium alginate (SA), and calcium sulfate hemihydrate (CS) were …

α‐Tricalcium phosphate bone cement, as formerly designed and developed by Driessens et
al., consists of a powder composed by α‐tricalcium phosphate (α‐TCP) and hydroxyapatite …

An extension of the application of calcium phosphate cements (CPC) to load-bearing
defects, eg in vertebroplasty, would require less brittle cements with an increased fracture …
