  • &agr;-TCP/HAP biphasic cement and its preparing process
    Patent number: 6338752
    Abstract: A biphasic cement of &agr;-TCP/HAP is primarily composed of 30-60 wt % &agr;-tricalcium phosphate (Ca3(PO4)2, &agr;-TCP) and 40-70 wt % of hydroxyapatite (Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2, HAP). The biphasic cement of &agr;-TCP/HAP of the present invention is superior since it can set rapidly while soaking in a water solution. The present invention also provides a process for preparing the biphasic cement of &agr;-TCP/HAP, in which the composition of the biphasic cement of &agr;-TCP/HAP can be controlled.

  • Process for preparing porous bioceramic materials
    Patent number: 6136030
    Abstract: A process for preparing porous bioceramic materials includes the following steps: (a) using the cancellous bone of animals, (b) removing organic substances in the cancellous bone by thermal processing to obtain de-organic cancellous bone, (c) soaking the de-organic cancellous bone in a solution of phosphate salts, and (d) obtaining porous bioceramic materials by sintering up to 900.degree. C. or higher after dehydration. The porous bioceramic materials of the present invention are suitable for use as filling materials for bone defect.
