Chemically Bonded Phosphate Ceramics: Twenty-First Century Materials with Diverse Applications

Chemically Bonded Phosphate Ceramics: Twenty-First Century Materials with Diverse Applications, 9780080445052 (0080445055), Elsevier Limited, 2005

A single source of for the science and applications of chemically bonded phosphate ceramics

The first chemically bonded phosphate ceramics (zinc phosphate dental cements) were developed over a century ago. However it has only been in the last 30 years that a new breed of materials has been discovered. This book brings together latest developments in this field including several novel ceramics, from Argonne and Brookhaven National Laboratories. Coupled with further advances in their use as biomaterials, these materials have found uses in diverse fields in recent years. Applications range from advanced structural materials to oil-well cements and stabilization and encapsulation of hazardous and radioactive waste. Such developments call a single source for their science and applications. This book provides the first comprehensive account to fulfil this need.

· Providing a foundation into the latest developments in chemically bonded phosphate ceramics.
· Explores new CBPC's with a wide range of practical applications.
· Over 30 years worth of developments and applications in the field available in a single source
