It has been reported that the biocement obtained by mixing $CaO-SiO_2-P_2O_5$ glass powders with ammonium phosphate solution has biocompatibility as will as high strength. The hardening mechanism and hydroxyapatite forming mechanism were discussed when $53.6%CaO_1,\; 38.1%SiO_2,\; 7.7P_2O_6,\; 0.6%CaF_2$(mole %) glass powder was reacted with ammonium phosphate solution and reacted in tris-buffer solution, respectively. High strength hardened biocement was obtained for the specimen with $CaNH_4PO_4\;H_2O$ crystal when the glass powder was mixed with ammonium phosphate solution, and hydroxyapatite crystal was rapidly formed only in the sample with $CaNH_4PO_4\;H_2O$ crystal when it was reacted in tris-buffer solution.

Biocementation based on the microbially induced calcite precipitation (MICP) process is a novel soil improvement method. Biocement can improve significantly the properties of soils by binding soil particles to increase the shear strength or filling in the pores to reduce the permeability of soil. In this paper, results of triaxial consolidated undrained (CU) tests and constant shear drained (CSD) tests on biocemented Ottawa sand are presented. In the CU tests, the biocemented sand had more dilative behaviour by showing a higher stress-strain curves and faster pore pressure reducing trends as compared with their untreated counterparts. In the CSD tests, the stress ratio q/p' at which biocemented sand became unstable was higher than that for untreated sands, implying that the biocementation will improve the stability of sand to water infiltration or liquefaction.

구연산이 첨가된 0.01 M의 $\beta$-인산칼슘 용액을 수열처리 하여 휘스커 상 수산화아파타이트를 합성할 때 수열처리 온도 및 시간이 휘스커의 생성에 미치는 영향을 관찰하였다. 용액을 30$0^{\circ}C$에서 5시간 수열처리 할 때 c축으로 약 60-80$\mu\textrm{m}$까지 성장하고 비교적 순수한 휘스커를 얻을 수 있었으며 이렇게 합성된 수산화아파타이트 휘스커를 수산화아파타이트 시멘트에 1-2 wt% 첨가하였을 때 그 경화체의 직경인장강도는 약 4-6배까지 증가하였다.

In order to improve the density and the mechanical strength without change in chemical composition the hardened pastes of hydroxyapatite cement were reinforced with powders and/or whiskers of hydroxyapatite. The powders behaved as a seed of hydroxyapatite formation rather than a filler while the whiskers were mrerly dispersed in matrix and capillary pores of the hardened bodies leading to increase in mechanical strength. But the increase in strength But the increase in strength was nnt enough owing to the lack of homogeneous dispersion of the fibers. The highest diametral tensile strength of 18.5 MPa was measured at the hardened hydroxyapatite body in which well-dispersed whisker phase formed uniformly during hydro-thermal curing of power-added and dry-formed hydroxyapatite cement.

It has been reported that a biocement obtained by mixing CaO-SiO2-P2O5 glass powder and ammonium phosphate solution has biocompatibility as well as high strength. However, the compositional dependence on its hardening and hydroxyapatite formation phenomena has not been studied. Therefore, the main objective of this work is to study the effects of P2O5, MgO in CaO-SiO2 system glass on the hardening and hydroxyapatite formation. When more than 50 mole% of CaO containing CaO-SiO2 glasses was reacted with ammonium phosphate solution, CaNH4PO4.H2O crystal was formed, but the glass with less than 50 mol% of CaO formed (NH4)2HPO4 and NH4H2PO4 crystals which are derived from ammonium phosphate solution without reacting with the glasses. As the amount of P2O5 in CaO-SiO2-P2O5 glass system was increased, the formation of CaNH4PO4.H2O crystal was enhanced. When those hardened samples were reacted with tris-buffer solution, hydroxyapatite was obtained only for the sample with CaNH4PO4.H2O. While the substitution of MgO for CaO decreased the formation of CaNH4PO4.H2O crystal. MgNH4PO4.H2O crystla was formed in high MgO containing glass, which did not react with tris-buffer solution.

Mg-BCP(Mg Substituted BCP)를 제조하기 위하여 $Ca(NO_3)_2{\cdot}4H_2O$(Katayama chemical, Japan)과 $(NH_4)_2{\cdot}HPO_4$ (Junsei chemical, Japan), $Mg(NO_3)_2{\cdot}6H_2O$(Junsei chemical, Japan)를 출발물질로 공침법(co-precipitation process)을 이용하여 합성하였다. 제조된 분말의 마그네슘의 첨가에 따른 분말의 분광학적 특성은 FT-IR(MAGNA-IR 560, Nicolet)을 통하여 분석하였으며, SEM(S-4200, Hitachi)을 통하여 미세구조를 분석하였다. XRD 회절피크의 면적적분강도를 Integral Analysis (Rigaku, Japan)를 이용하여 HAp와 ${\beta}$-TCP의 비율을 확인하였다. 1.0 wt% 마그네슘이 첨가된 BCP 샘플의 경우 Hank's solution에서의 2주 침적 후 표면에 침상의 HAp로 추정되는 결정이 성장하였다. 이러한 미세구조의 변화는 생활성을 가지는 마그네슘의 첨가가 BCP 조직 내에서 표면의 활성을 증가시켜 결정의 성장을 촉진시킨 것으로 판단된다.
