Nowadays, α-tricalcium phosphate (α-TCP, α-Ca3 (PO4) 2) is receiving growing attention as
a raw material for several injectable hydraulic bone cements, biodegradable bioceramics …

Calcium phosphates are promising materials for applications in bone repair and substitution,
particularly for their bioactivity and ability to form self-setting cements. Among them, α …

Abstract β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) is one the most used and potent synthetic bone
graft substitute. It is not only osteoconductive, but also osteoinductive. These properties …

β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) is one of the most common bioceramics, widely applied in
bone cements and implants. Herein we synthesized β-TCP by solid state reaction in the …

Increasing attention has been paid in recent years to alpha-tricalcium phosphate (α-TCP),
which is used as the main constituent of calcium phosphate bioactive bone cements and …

Tricalcium phosphate based ceramics (TCP) are bioresorbable and thereby considered to
be promising bone replacement materials. The differences in crystal structure between α …

Monoclinic tetracalcium phosphate (TTCP, Ca4 (PO4) 2O), also known by the mineral name
hilgenstockite, is formed in the (CaO–P2O5) system at temperatures> 1300° C. TTCP is the …

The preparation of magnesium (Mg)-stabilized β-tricalcium phosphate [β-TCP, β-Ca3 (PO4)
2] was carried out by an aqueous precipitation method and the characterization was …

Doping calcium phosphates with trace elements that exist in bone tissues is beneficial in
terms of cell–material interactions and in vivo performance of the bone grafts made thereof …

The synthesis of five different Sr2+-and Mg2+-co-substituted β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP)
has been obtained by heating the calcium-deficient apatites above 800° C. With the …
