## Abstract The possibility and biological effects of substituting silicon in α‐tricalcium phosphate (α‐TCP) by way of solid‐state reaction have been evaluated. α‐TCP powders with varying substitution amounts (1 and 5 mol % Ca~2~SiO~4~) were synthesized by reacting mixtures of CaCO~3~, Ca~2~P~2~O~7

The synthesis of five different Sr(2+)- and Mg(2+)-co-substituted beta-tricalcium phosphate (beta-TCP) has been obtained by heating the calcium-deficient apatites above 800 degrees C. With the investigated concentrations of Sr(2+) and Mg(2+) from the present study, no additional phases other than be
Tricalcium phosphate (TCP, Ca 3 (PO 4 ) 2 ) in its pure form cannot be synthesized under physiological conditions in normal aqueous solutions due to phase instability, resulting in its transformation to hydroxyapatite (HA, Ca 10 (PO 4 ) 6 (OH) 2 ) in the presence of water. However, substituting magn
In this paper, we report X-ray diffraction investigations as well as Raman and solid-state 31 P and 23 Na magic angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) characterization of three series of calcium orthophosphates. The general formulae of the studied compounds are Ca 10.5Àx/2 M x (PO 4 ) 7 , w
The influence of ionic substituents in calcium phosphates intended for bone and tooth replacement biomedical applications is an important research topic, owing to the essential roles played by trace elements in biological processes. The present study investigates the mechanical and biological evalua
