Synthesis of Si, Mg substituted hydroxyapatites and their sintering behaviors

TLDR
It is observed that ion substitutions by an amount higher than the above ratios for each hydroxyapatite lead to destabilization of original structures of the hydroxyAPatite and to the production of tricalcium phosphate and calcium phosphate silicate phases when the samples were sintered at 1100 degrees C or higher.

Ionic substitutions in calcium phosphates synthesized at low temperature.

TL;DR: An overview of the recent results achieved on ion-substituted calcium phosphates prepared at low temperature, i.e. by direct synthesis in aqueous medium or through hydrolysis of more soluble calcium phosphate based materials is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI

Calcium phosphates in biomedical applications: materials for the future?

TL;DR: The aim of this manuscript is to highlight the tremendous improvements achieved in CaP materials research in the past 15 years, in particular in the field of biomineralization, as carrier for gene or ion delivery, as biologically active agent, and as bone graft substitute.
Journal ArticleDOI

Silicon substitution in the calcium phosphate bioceramics

TL;DR: Silicon (Si) substitution in the crystal structures of calcium phosphate (CaP) ceramics such as hydroxyapatite (HA) and tricalcium phosphate (TCP) generates materials with superior biological performance to stoichiometric counterparts.

Substituted hydroxyapatites for biomedical applications: A review

TL;DR: In this paper, a review summarizes recent and very recent work on preparing substituted hydroxyapatites for a wide range of biomedical applications, including repairing and replacing diseased and damaged parts of musculoskeletal systems and also as a drug or gene delivery agent, as a bioactive coating on metallic osseous implants, biomagnetic particles and fluorescent markers.
Journal ArticleDOI

In vivo corrosion behavior of Mg-Mn-Zn alloy for bone implant application.

TL;DR: In this article, a degradation or reaction layer, which was mainly composed of Ca, P, O, and Mg, was formed on the surface of magnesium alloy implants, showing that high Ca content in the degradation layer displayed that magnesium could promote the deposition of Ca.

Silicon: A Possible Factor in Bone Calcification

TL;DR: Silicon, a relatively unknown trace element in nutritional research, has been uniquely localized in active calcification sites in young bone and is suggested to be associated with calcium in an early stage of calcification.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chemical characterization of silicon-substituted hydroxyapatite.

TL;DR: Chemical analysis confirmed the proposed substitution of the silicon (or silicate) ion for the phosphorus (or phosphate) ion in hydroxyapatite and demonstrated that phase-pure silicon-substituted hydroxyAPatite may be prepared using a simple precipitation technique.
Journal ArticleDOI

Novel synthesis and characterization of an AB‐type carbonate‐substituted hydroxyapatite

TL;DR: A novel synthesis route has been developed to produce a high-purity mixed AB-type carbonate-substituted hydroxyapatite (CHA) with a carbonate content that is comparable to the type and level observed in bone mineral.
