In vitro Bioactivity Assessment of Novel Composites Based on Calcium Aluminate Cement-Crimson Publishers
In vitro Bioactivity Assessment of NovelComposites Based on Calcium Aluminate Cement by Cortés-Hernández DA in Research
& Development in Material Science
The
effect of pseudowollastonite (Pw) additions on the in vitro bioactivity and
compressive strength of composites based on calcium aluminate cement (CAC) was
studied. Composites were prepared by mixing calcium aluminate clinker with
pseudowollastonite (5 and 10 wt%) at a w/c ratio of 0.4 (0.015M LiCl aqueous
solution). In order to assess the in vitro bioactivity and compressive
strength, composites (CAC 5Pw and CAC 10Pw) were immersed in simulated body
fluid (SBF) at 37 °C for 1, 7, 14 or 21 days. Analyses of the surface cements
after immersion in SBF revealed the formation of a bonelike apatite layer in
both composites, increasing the amount of this Ca, P rich compound as the Pw
content was increased. The compressive strength of the composites decreased as
the pseudowollastonite content was increased. However, the strength of the
composites was higher than that established for bone cements in the ASTM F451
standard.
