Notes:
In this paper the synthesis of bioactive cement based on α-Ca3(PO4)2 (α-TCP) and calcium deficient hydroxyapatite (CDHAp), obtained by hydrothermal method from CaCl2, EDTA, NaH2PO4·12H2O and urea at 160oC, was described. According to the results of DTA, SEM, X-ray and FTIR analyses performed in this investigation, it is shown that CDHAp is transformed to β- TCP at 780oC, and to α-TCP at 1400oC. The hardening of the samples, prepared from the mixture ofα-TCP and 2.5 % solution of Na2HPO4, in simulated body fluid at 37oC, was followed by the microstructure changes
