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 …

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 phosphate cements (CPCs) are self-setting bioactive materials with unique
properties for bone regeneration applications. The chapter first describes CPCs and …

Apatitic calcium phosphate cements (CPCs) have been widely used as bone grafts due to
their excellent osteoconductive properties, but the degradation properties are insufficient to …

In this study the influence of amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP) on the setting of, and the
formed apatite crystallite size in, a calcium phosphate cement (CPC) based on α-tricalcium …

Although autografts are considered to be the current gold standard, there is still clinical
demand for synthetic bone graft substitutes. Calcium phosphate cements (CPCs) have many …

The reactivity of acid base cements forming hydroxyapatite (HA) such as, tetracalcium
phosphate, and dicalcium phosphate anhydride or dicalcium phosphate dihydrate, is …

Calcium phosphate cements (CPC) are materials that are capable of rapid setting to a hard
mass, highly biocompatible, gradually replaced by new bone in vivo. Since the development …

Alpha tricalcium phosphate (α-TCP) is a ceramic widely used in cements for orthopedic and
dentistry applications, which is synthesized by solid-state reactions occurred at high …

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 …
