Gallium containing glass polyalkenoate bone cements: Glass characterization and physical properties

Gallium (Ga) glasses were developed to formulate a Glass Polyalkenoate Cement (GPC) series with both E9 and E11 polyacrylic acid (PAA) at 50, 55 and 60 wt% additions. Working times (T w ), setting times (T s ), compression (σ c ), and biaxial flexural (σ f ) strength testing were evaluated to determ...

Summary:Gallium (Ga) glasses were developed to formulate a Glass Polyalkenoate Cement (GPC) series with both E9 and E11 polyacrylic acid (PAA) at 50, 55 and 60 wt% additions. Working times (T w ), setting times (T s ), compression (σ c ), and biaxial flexural (σ f ) strength testing were evaluated to determine the GPCs potential use in orthopedics.
