“…In especially the calcium aluminate CaO•Al 2 O 3 is a ceramic material with a considerable importance due to its several applications, such as a refractory material (Miranda Hernández et al, 2018), concrete-based calcium aluminate cement (Scrivener et al, 1999), catalyst (Zabeti et al, 2009), and metallurgical processes (Jiangling et al, 2015;Jifang et al, 2012Jifang et al, , 2016. Also, this material has been studied for biomedical applications (Regina de Oliveira et al, 2015), such as in odontology (Leal Silva et al, 2014;Engqvist et al, 2004;Parreira et al, 2016;Loof et al, 2003;Oliveira et al, 2010;Andrade et al, 2014), bone replacement (Uchida et al, 1984) and bone-graft applications (Kalita et al, 2002;Hulbert et al, 1970). As well, calcium aluminate has been the focus of several studies about of the synthesis processes, such as the sol-gel method (Aitasalo et al, 2002), solid state reaction (Miranda Hernández et al, 2018;Aitasalo et al, 2002;Yongpan et al, 2016), sintering (Miranda Hernández et al, 2018;Iftekhar et al, 2008;, mechanochemical synthesis (Wieczorek-Ciurowa et al, 2010), and the sonochemical process (Lourençoa et al, 2013).…”
