Influence of nano-silica additions on hydration characteristics and cytotoxicity of calcium aluminate as biomaterial
Composites of nano-calcium aluminate 'CA' biocement, synthesized by a solid state reaction, were prepared with 5, 10 and 20 wt.% of nano-SiO2 particles. The influence of nano-SiO2 particle additions on the physico-mechanical properties and hydration characteristics of CA biocement was stud...
