Abstract

AbstractAs it was recently shown that β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP), similar to α-TCP, can be mechanically activated by prolonged ball milling, partially amorphized β-TCP is promising for the development of new bone cement formulations. Hence in the present study the hydration of partially amorphized β-TCP with different contents of an amorphous phase (amorphous tricalcium phosphate, ATCP) was investigated by isothermal calorimetry and quantitative X-ray diffraction (XRD) to obtain the hydration enthalpies of β-TCP and ATCP. Measurements were conducted at 23 °C, a 0.1 M Na
