Abstract: The present invention relates to X-ray amorphous and hollow calcium magnesium fluoride phosphate particles. The X-ray amorphous and hollow calcium magnesium fluoride phosphate particles have a mean diameter ranging from 50 to 500 nm and comprise a respective shell. The respective shell comprises 15-30 wt % calcium, 50-65 wt % phosphate, 4-8 wt % magnesium, 1-10 wt % fluoride, and the balance is water.

Abstract: The present invention relates to hollow calcium phosphate particles comprising a respective shell comprising calcium, phosphate, water, magnesium, and strontium. The particles have a mean diameter ranging from 400 nm to 1.5 ?m. The invention also relates to methods of producing such particles and compositions comprising such particles.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a particle composition comprising XRD amorphous calcium magnesium phosphate particles and a method for manufacturing such a composition. The XRD amorphous calcium magnesium phosphate particles are spherical particles with a hollow core. The particle-containing paste may be used in dental products such as toothpaste to treat dentin hypersensitivity by mineralizing and occluding exposed dentin tubules.

Abstract: The object is the invention is to provide hollow, and preferably porous, spherical CaP particles preferably without the use of strontium ions. This is achieved by a method comprising the steps: a) Providing an aqueous buffer solution of purified water having a pH of 6-10 comprising 20-200 mM sodium ions, 0.1-10 mM potassium ions and 1-10 mM phosphate ions, and wherein the buffer solution is essentially free from strontium; b) adding calcium ions in the range of from 0.1 to less than 2 mM, and magnesium ions in the range of 0.01-5 mM to the buffer solution and forming a mixture; c) heating the mixture of step b) at 60-200° C. for at least 5 minutes d) isolating the formed particles; and e) optionally washing the isolated particles using a suitable solvent. The particles comprise 40-70 weight % of calcium, 20-40 weight % of phosphate and 1-25 weight % magnesium. The Ca/P weight ratio is in the range of 1.10 to 1.90 and more than 80 % of the particles have a particle size between 200 to 1500 nm.
