Calcium phosphate cement calcium silicate for biomedical applications.

摘要

The present invention relates to a cement calcium silicate calcium phosphate comprising a volume fraction of 10 to 99% of brushite (DCPD, CaHPO {sub, 4} 2H {sub, 2} O) doped with silicon, a fraction of calcium silicate hydrate (CSH) and another fraction hydroxyapatite. Also the invention relates to a method for preparing such cement and the use of matrices that include the development of therapeutic agents for maxillofacial and oral surgery, orthopedic applications and / or controlled drug release and tissue engineering and bone as a support for cell growth. This new material is osteoconductive, resorbable by the body and is suitable for use in biomedical applications mechanical properties.
