Effect of Storage Conditions on the Setting Properties of Brushite Bone Cement Containing Granular β-tricalcium Phosphate Sun-Ae Lee, Tai-Joo Chung, and Kyung-Sik Oh School of Advanced Materials Engineering, The Center for Green Materials Technology, Andong National University, Andong, 760-749, Korea (Received October 4, 2008; Revised October 15, 2008; Accepted October 16, 2008) x β- e w Brushite p y p Á k Á w œw» l (2008 10 4 ; 2008 10 15 ; 2008 10 16 ) ABSTRACT In the bone cement composed of dense granules of β-ca 3 (PO 4 ) 2 (β-tcp) and Ca(H 2 PO 4 ) 2 H 2 O, the compressive strength, setting time and temperature rise were measured to observe the degradation of cement with respect to the stored days before setting. Decreases of compressive strength and temperature rise were observed, while setting time increased with respect to the stored days. The similar trends were repeated with the increase of temperature of storage. Such a change virtually meant the fading of the character of cement and it took place only when the two starting materials were mixed during storage. The degradation could be mitigated taking advantage of granular β-tcp instead of powdery one. The formation of CaHPO 4, which resulted from reaction with ambient humidity, was attributed to the degradation observed during storage. Dependence of the degradation behavior on mixing and temperature during storage was discussed in terms of the driving force for reaction of cement.
