Bone prosthetic material and method of manufacturing the same
Abstract:
A method of manufacturing a bone prosthetic material, includes by forming tricalcium phosphate (TCP) particle precursor particles; by performing preliminary sintering on the TCP precursor particles at a temperature in a first temperature range to produce TCP particles of diameters in a predetermined diameter range; by granulating the TCP particles to produce granulated bodies; and by performing sintering on the granulated bodies at a temperature in a second temperature range to generate sinter assemblies. The second temperature range is higher than the first temperature range. In the bone prosthetic material manufactured thus, a first space in a range of 100 to 400 μm is formed between adjacent two of a plurality of sintered assemblies. Each of the plurality of sintered assemblies includes tricalcium phosphate (TCP) particles which are subjected to sintering, and a second space in a range of 5 to 100 μm is formed between adjacent two of the TCP particles. The second space communicates with the first space. Each of the plurality of sintered assemblies has a connection portion connecting the TCP particles, and the connection portion has a width in a range of 5 to 20 μm.
