Injection Behavior of Brushite Bone Cement Prepared with Granulated β-Tricalcium Phosphate
Abstract:
The injection behavior of β-tricalcium phosphate (Ca3(PO4)2: β-TCP) based cement was improved through the granulation of β-TCP. Dense β-TCP granules were obtained by heat treatment after spray drying. The fraction of injected paste under loaded mass in the syringe was measured while varying the granular fraction of β-TCP and the heat treatment temperature. The increase in granular fraction and heating treatment temperature reduced the amount of setting agent required to wet the granules. As the surplus setting agent could be used in the powdery β-TCP to reduce the viscosity, improved injectability was achieved. Inappropriate setting by the excessive setting agent was not observed and the cements tested exhibited normal setting behavior by forming a brushite phase.
