## Abstract Calcium phosphate cements (CPCs) can be considered as good candidate for bone tissue engineering because they can be resorbed and take part in the bone remodeling process. Several efforts have been made into improve the resorption rate of the calcium phosphate cement by introducing macr

β¦ Synopsis
In order to increase mechanical properties of surgical cements, an apatitic filler has been linked to the polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) matrix. We report here the study of the linkage between the mineral and organic components by a dielectric spectroscopy: Thermally Stimulated Current. First, the mineral-organic interface between apatitic-octocalcic phosphate and hydroxyethylmethacrylate (HEMA) has been investigated. Second, the fillermatrix interface between grafted apatite and PMMA has been examined. It has been shown that the filler is chemically linked to the matrix and stiffens the PMMA bone cement.
