New Materials (BCP, CS, CSH) BCP / CS / CSH

Biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP) is a bioceramic composed of hydroxyapatite (HA) and beta tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP), combining the stability of HA with the degradability of β-TCP. As a typical calcium-phosphate biomaterial, BCP offers strong biocompatibility, osteoconductivity, and tissue integration, providing stable support for new bone growth.

BCP is widely used in bone-defect repair, oral and alveolar-bone regeneration, orthopedic filling materials, tissue-engineering scaffolds, and related regenerative-medicine research. For applications that require both structural support and gradual degradation, BCP is often a representative synthetic bone-repair material.

Calcium silicate (CS) is a representative silicon-based bioactive material in the study of bioceramics and bone-repair materials, combining strong biocompatibility, surface activity, and osteogenic potential. Compared with traditional inert fillers, calcium silicate shows greater research value in ion release, interfacial response, and bone-bonding performance, and is often used in new bone-repair systems and functional composite materials.

CS is suitable for bone-defect repair, bone tissue engineering scaffolds, coating modification, bioactive composites, and regenerative-medicine-related research. It is also commonly combined with hydroxyapatite, β-TCP, collagen, or functional ion systems to develop more active bone-repair material solutions.

Calcium sulfate hemihydrate (CSH) is an important form of calcium sulfate with strong plasticity and self-setting behavior. After liquid mixing, it can form a workable paste system, which makes it especially useful in injectable, moldable, or on-site forming bone-repair materials. CSH is also commonly used as a base component in composite scaffolds and bone-repair systems together with hydroxyapatite, collagen, or other active ingredients.

CSH is suitable for bone-defect filling, injectable bone-repair materials, bone cement systems, tissue-engineering scaffolds, and composite regenerative material development, especially in applications that require convenient handling, flexible shaping, and gradual resorption and replacement.
