Self-Propagating High-Temperature Synthesis (SHS) of Porous Calcium Phosphate (CaP) Scaffolds Substituted with Magnesium or Strontium

摘要

SHS is a viable alternative for production of porous CaP scaffolds substituted with Mg or Sr. As Mg and Sr content increased maximum pore size and compressive strength decreased. Scaffolds substituted with Sr and Mg had lower porosities (except CaP-Sr 1) and smaller maximum pore sizes than the TCP and HA controls which could affect bioresorption and cellular activity.
