✦ Synopsis
Calculation of the solubility product constants for Ca(OH)2 and CaSO4.2H20 in pore solutions of hardened cement paste is used as an estimation of saturation. The treatment of solubility data using three models is discussed in this paper. These models are the Greenberg-Copeland model[l], the Brornley model[ 2] and the Pitzer-Mayorga model [3], which are all based on extended Debye-Htickel theory. The models are applied to the estimation of the saturation according to the experimental and calculated results. Experimental results were obtained from concentration measurements of ions present in the solutions while calculations are based on the models. None of the models evaluated appear entirely adequate to calculate Ca(OH)2 and CaSO4.2H20 saturation. According to the models, Ca(OH)2 and CaSO4.2H20 saturation in pore solutions depends strongly on the alkali content of the cement.

## Abstract In this study, a biphasic injectable bone substitute based on β‐dicalcium silicate (Ca~2~SiO~4~) and plaster of Paris (CaSO~4~·1/2H~2~O) is presented, and its behavior as cement was studied and compared to that of pure Ca~2~SiO~4~ paste. The results demonstrated that the setting time of
