General description

Tricalcium phosphate or tribasic calcium phosphate is a calcium salt of phosphoric acid with the formula Ca3(PO4)2. This material is a white powder consisting of particles with a size from 2-6 microns and a high surface area exceeding 80 m2/g.

Application

Hydroxyapatite and tricalcium phosphate are bioactive ceramic materials and they find applications as bone grafts, fillers and coating material for metal implants.[1][2][3][4]

The ideal bone tissue engineering scaffolds are long-cherished with the properties of interconnected macroporous structures, adjustable degradation and excellent biocompatibility. Here, a series of porous α/β-tricalcium phosphate (α/β-TCP) biphasic bioceramics with different phase ratios of α-TCP and β-TCP were successfully

A systematic characterisation of bone tissue scaffolds fabricated via 3D printing from hydroxyapatite (HA) and poly(vinyl)alcohol (PVOH) composite powders is presented. Flowability of HA:PVOH precursor materials was observed to affect mechanical stability, microstructure and porosity of 3D printed scaffolds. Anisotropic
