Synthesis and Characterization of Calcium Hydroxide Obtained From Agave Bagasse and Investigation of Its Antibacterial Activity

Abstract: Calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH) 2) is recognized as an efficient bactericide and is widely applied as a root canal filler in endodontic treatment. Ca(OH) 2 is mainly produced by hydration of calcium oxide (CaO), a product of the thermal decomposition of calcium carbonate (CaCO 3) from sources such as limestone. In this work, calcium hydroxide particles were synthetized by the thermochemical transformation of waste biomass from the tequila industry. Agave biomass processed at 600 °C was composed mostly of calcium car… Show more

“…The XRD patterns of the raw eggshells and obtained CaO (hydrated) samples are given in Figure S2. The XRD patterns of the raw eggshells and hydrated CaO were similar to the earlier reported patterns indicated the decomposition of CaCO 3 into CaO at this temperature (Chávez Guerrero et al, ; Habte et al, ). The SEM image of eggshells‐derived HAp powders after 60 and 75 min of sonication is shown in Figure .…”

“…It was interesting to note that the formation of dicalcium phosphate hydrate (DCPH) has occurred after 5 min of sonication, and the intensity of this peak suppressed at 60 min of sonication. The XRD patterns of the raw eggshells and obtained CaO (hydrated) samples are given in FigureS2.The XRD patterns of the raw eggshells and hydrated CaO were similar to the earlier reported patterns indicated the decomposition of CaCO 3 into CaO at this temperature(Chávez Guerrero et al, 2017;Habte et al, 2019). The SEM image of eggshells-derived HAp powders after 60 and 75 min of sonication is shown in Figure4.…”

“…Then, 8 mL of H 2 O was added to each 2 g of CaO, until it became homogeneous. Later, the paste was dried at 100 • C for 5 h, and, finally, the Ca(OH) 2 was obtained [24].…”

“…19 The presence of CaO and MgO in lime is due to this material being derived from calcium and magnesium carbonates, which assume the form of oxides after calcination, a process that occurs when lime is manufactured industrially. Finally, lime also showed reflections related to Ca(OH) 2 , 20 which may appear due to the reaction of the calcium oxide with the humidity of the air. Comparatively, the pattern obtained for calcined eggshell is also shown in Fig.…”
