Description
Summary:The results of wet two-stage synthesis of tricalcium phosphate followed by high-temperature treatment are reported. The effect of incorporating tricalcium silicate and alkaline silicate glasses in formation of biocomposite materials based on dicalcium phosphate dihydrate (DCPD) was examined. It was found that use of the bioactive glass 50S25N5P in the amount of up to 10% of the mass content increases the compressive strength and pH to a physiologically safe level in the composite material in comparison to unmodified DCPD. The composite obtained ensures formation of osteoid tissue for 30 days.
