Effect of Mg Content on Thermal Stability of β-Tricalcium Phosphate Ceramics

β-Tricalcium phosphate bioceramics with small, close to bone-like amounts of Mg were obtained by modified precipitation method and following sintering.

Description
Summary:β-Tricalcium phosphate bioceramics with small, close to bone-like amounts of Mg were obtained by modified precipitation method and following sintering. The effect of small amounts of Mg on the thermal stability, microstructure and sintering behavior of β-tricalcium phosphate bioceramics was evaluated. Addition of small amounts of Mg, can induce a remarkable effect on the physic-chemical properties of β-TCP and therefore the chemical composition of the starting materials should be controlled.
