Abstract

Sintering characteristics of β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) powders synthesized by three methods were studied. Dence β-TCP ceramics were obtained by the sintering of mechanochemicaly synthesized β-TCP powder at 1050°C, 50°-100°C lower than the firing temperature of β-TCP powders obtained by wet and dry process'es. Bending strength of the sintered body was 1340kgf/cm2. Formation of α-TCP in the β-TCP ceramics decreased the bending strength and also the chemical durability.
