β-tricalcium phosphate (TCP) exhibits rapid degradation and weak mechanical properties,
which has limited its application as bone graft substitutes, though it has good …

Novel premixed calcium phosphate cements (CPCs) were prepared by combining cement
liquids comprised of glycerol or polyethylene glycol with CPC powders that consisted of β …

The initial setting properties of calcium phosphate cements in the CaHPOv 4–α-Ca 3 (PO 4)
2 (DCP–α-TCP) system have been investigated. Interest was focused on the pH, workability …

Background Bone regeneration involves various complex biological processes. Many
experiments have been performed using biomaterials in vivo and in vitro to promote and …

Doped calcium phosphate bioceramics are promising materials for bone repair surgery
because of their chemical resemblance to the mineral constituent of bone. Among these …

The inorganic part of hard tissues (bones and teeth) of mammals consists of calcium
phosphate, mainly of apatitic structure. Similarly, most undesired calcifications (ie those …

Abstract β-Tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) is one of the most investigated calcium phosphates
to be used in bone tissue regeneration. Nowadays, β-TCP has been synthetized by different …

Two kinds of tri-calcium phosphate ceramics (Ca/P= 1.50), α-TCP and β-TCP, which has the
same macrostructure and microstructure, but different phase composition, were implanted in …

Biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP) bioceramics belong to a group of bone substitute
biomaterials that consist of an intimate mixture of hydroxyapatite (HA), Ca 10 (PO 4) 6 (OH) …

Tetracalcium phosphate (TTCP) has been shown previously to be an essential component
of self-setting calcium phosphate cements that form hydroxyapatite (HA) as the only end …
