Calcium phosphate bioceramics synthesized from eggshell powders through a solid state reaction

Effects of heat treatment on the synthesis of hydroxyapatite from eggshell powders

“…However, the wet chemical synthesis methodologies are rather time consuming, complicated and demand adept adjustment and control of the pH value. Given these shortcomings of the wet synthesis methods, the dry process is considered to be more suitable for the large-scale synthesis of high crystalline HA because of its high reproducibility and low processing cost [8,9].…”

Eggshell derived mesoporous biphasic calcium phosphate for biomedical applications using rapid thermal processing

“…Since BCP possesses the combined physicochemical properties of HA and TCP, it makes it possible to treat large bone defects and is established as one of the good bone graft substitutes. [23][24][25][26][27] Generally, composition of 60% HA and 40% TCP is preferred due to its appropriate bone substitution/regeneration capabilities and good mechanical properties. Synthesis of nonstoichiometric HA has been | 1933 GANESAN Et Al.…”

Production and Characterisation of PCL/ES Scaffolds for Bone Tissue Engineering

“…It is biodegradable, osteoconductive and its composition resembles mineralized bone matrix since it contains trace elements, such as Na + , Mg 2+ and Sr 2+ . This is one of the most common biomaterial in nature and is the main waste product of the food industry [12,13]. The ES represents 11% of egg total weight and is mostly composed by calcium carbonate (94%), organic matter (4%), magnesium carbonate (1%) and tricalcium phosphate (1%) [14,15].…”
