    Monetite Promoting Effect of Nacl on Brushite Cement Setting Kinetics
    (Royal Society of Chemistry, 2013) Şahin, Erdem; Çiftçioglu, Muhsin
    Brushite forming calcium phosphate cements (CPCs) have received growing interest for scaffold applications due to their high surface area and high bioresorbability. The dehydrated form of brushite, monetite, has a finer microstructure with higher surface area, higher strength and bioresorbability comparable to brushite, making it a viable alternative phase in CPCs. The increase in monetite content of the β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP)-monocalcium phosphate monohydrate (MCPM) cement system due to the reduction in its supersaturation upon addition of NaCl to excess setting liquid was investigated kinetically. The relaxation period was monitored by pH-stat titration of the cement solution by 0.1 M NaOH. Monetite growth was achieved in shorter periods at higher NaCl concentrations where the supersaturation gap between brushite and monetite is thought to be narrowed due to high ionic strength in accord with Pitzer's ion interaction model. The brushite/monetite ratio decreased consistently with increasing NaCl concentration in the 3-6 M range.

    Foaming Binary Solution Mixtures of Low Molecular Surfactant and Polyelectrolyte
    (Springer Verlag, 2006) Aidarova, S. B.; Musabekov, K. B.; Ospanova, Z. B.; Güden, Mustafa
    The lifetime of water solution foams of sodium dodecylsulfate (DDS, low molecular weight surfactant) and sodium carboxymethylcellulose (SCMC, polyelectrolyte) and their binary mixtures was experimentally investigated. The effects of ionic strength and acidity on the foam life were also determined. In binary solutions, a synergic effect of DDS and SCMC on the surface tension reduction, most likely resulting from the interaction of the surfactant with polymer, was found. The addition of NaCl into solution or increasing the ionic strength was found to decrease the surface tension and reduce interfacial mobility, hence increased foam lifetime. The relatively low lifetime of binary solution foams in acidic medium was attributed to the reaction between SCMC and acid, which resulted in relatively small reductions in the viscosity and consequently lowered the solution viscosity.
