CHEMICALLY BONDED BIOMATERIAL WITH TAILORED PROPERTIES

摘要

A chemically bonded biomaterial element composed of an inorganic cement, exhibiting minimal dimensional changes upon hardening and long-time use, improved mechanical properties and improved translucency. An algorithm to describe the micro-structure is expressed as (I) where .lambda. is the distance between filler particles of mean size d, and VF is the volume conte nt of non-reacted cement and added filler, and where .lambda. = 10 ~m. The invention also relates to a device in connection with the preparation of a chemically bonded biomaterial element according to the invention.
