Overview
Description
β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) is one of the most commonly used and effective synthetic bone graft substitutes. Compared with hydroxyapatite (HA), β-TCP is considered to have better biodegradability and can therefore be better absorbed and replaced by newly generated hard tissue. This property makes β-TCP a promising biomaterial among all other non-absorbable materials. In particular, nano-scale β-TCP has attracted great attention in many biomedical applications. β-TCP dispersion is a suspension of β-TCP particles uniformly distributed in a medium. This dispersion significantly enhances the mechanical and biological properties of the resulting material. The β-TCP dispersion we produce uses water as the medium and has excellent stability, ensuring that the particles do not settle over time. This is essential to maintain consistent quality in real-world applications.
Applications
Its unique properties, such as biocompatibility, bioactivity, and resorbability, make β-TCP suitable for various applications. Here are some notable applications of β-TCP dispersion:
- Bone regeneration. β-TCP is extensively used in bone grafts and fillers due to its compatibility with human tissues.
- Dental implants. β-TCP serves as a scaffold material in dental applications to support the healing of alveolar bone following tooth extraction.
- Drug delivery systems. The porosity and the ability to decompose over time make β-TCP an excellent candidate for drug delivery applications in localized treatments.
- Tissue engineering. β-TCP is used in 3D scaffolding where it supports cell attachment, proliferation, and differentiation, contributing to overall tissue regeneration.
Customization
If you plan to order a large amount of β-TCP water dispersion products to meet your industrial or academic needs, please note that we can customize product parameters (e.g. size, concentration, purity, solvent, etc.) upon request.
