Preparation and Characterization of Calcium Sulfate Spherical Particles for Dentistry

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this article, calcium sulfate spherical particles were prepared to be used in alveolar bone defect repairing. We used α-calcium sulfate hemihydrate powder to prepare spherical particles of calcium sulfate with stir pelletizing method. The effect of powder addition, pelletizing time and concentration of water-glass on properties of the spherical particles were studied. It was indicated that with increasing of the powder addition, the particle size of the spherical particles was decreased. Prolonging the pelletizing time can improve the compression strength in certain conditions. With increasing of the concentration of water-glass used in preparation process, the shape of the spherical particles becomes non-circular, the granulous stem yield was decreased and the compression strength of the spherical particles was improved.
