α-Tricalcium phosphate: Synthesis, properties and biomedical applications
TLDR
It is as biocompatible as β-TCP, but more soluble, and hydrolyses rapidly to calcium-deficient hydroxyapatite, which makes α- TCP a useful component for preparing self-setting osteotransductive bone cements and biodegradable bioceramics and composites for bone repairing.About:
