이중, 상기 합성골(Alloplastic bone)은 '조직을 수복하거나, 재건하기 위해 사용될 수 있으며 열이나 압력으로 가공이 가능한 인공적인 합성골'로 정의될 수 있으며, 가격이 저렴하고 재료의 크기 제한이 없어 적용범위가 다양하다.Among them, the synthetic bone (Alloplastic bone) can be defined as'artificial synthetic bone that can be used to repair or rebuild tissue and can be processed by heat or pressure', and it is inexpensive and there is no limit on the size of the material. The scope of application is diverse.
한편, 상기 합성골 중, 인산칼슘계 합성골은 동물실험에 적용했을 때, 염증 반응이나 새로운 섬유상 조직의 생성 없이 경조직과 결합하는 것이 밝혀지면서 주목 받게 되었다.On the other hand, among the above synthetic bones, calcium phosphate-based synthetic bones attracted attention as they were found to bind to hard tissues without inflammatory reactions or new fibrous tissues when applied to animal experiments.
이러한 인산칼슘계 합성골은 칼슘과 인(Ca/P)의 비율에 따라 매우 다양하게 존재한다.These calcium phosphate-based synthetic bones exist in a wide variety according to the ratio of calcium and phosphorus (Ca/P).
한편, 각각의 인산칼슘계 합성골은 칼슘과 인의 비율에 따라 열역학적 특성이 다르고, 인체 또는 인체와 유사한 용액 내에서 용해도의 차이를 나타낸다.On the other hand, each calcium phosphate-based synthetic bone has different thermodynamic properties according to the ratio of calcium and phosphorus, and shows a difference in solubility in a human body or a solution similar to that of the human body.
때문에 여러 가지 인산칼슘계 합성골을 생체 내 삽입하면 그 주변에 있는 조직들과 각각 다른 생물학적 반응 (biological reaction)을 보이며 특히, 생체 내에서 용해되어 나온 칼슘과 인은 생체 내에서 골재생에 크게 영향을 주는 것으로 알려져 있다. Therefore, when various calcium phosphate-based synthetic bones are inserted in vivo, they exhibit different biological reactions from the surrounding tissues. In particular, calcium and phosphorus dissolved in the living body greatly affect bone regeneration in vivo. It is known to give.
즉, 인산칼슘계 합성골은 Ca/P 비에 따라 생체불활성, 생체활성, 그리고 생분해성으로 구분되며, 보다 구체적으로 Ca/P가 0.5이면 monocalcium phosphate monohydrate(Ca(H 2PO 4) 2·H 2O), 1.0은 dicalcium phosphate dihydrate(CaHPO 4·2H 2O), 1.33은 octacalcium phosphate(Ca 8H 2(PO 4) 6·5H 2O), 1.3~1.67은 amorphous calcium phosphate(CaxHy(PO 4)znH 2O, n=3~4.5, 15-20% H 2O), 1.5는 α-tricalcium phosphate(α-Ca 3(PO 4) 2), 1.67은 hydroxyapatite(Ca 10(PO 4) 6(OH) 2)이며, 2.0은 tetracalcium phosphate(Ca 4(PO 4) 2O)이다.In other words, calcium phosphate-based synthetic bone is classified into bioinertness, bioactivity, and biodegradability according to the Ca/P ratio. More specifically, when Ca/P is 0.5, monocalcium phosphate monohydrate (Ca(H 2 PO 4 ) 2 ·H 2 O), 1.0 is dicalcium phosphate dihydrate (CaHPO 4 ·2H 2 O), 1.33 is octacalcium phosphate (Ca 8 H 2 (PO 4 ) 6 ·5H 2 O), 1.3 to 1.67 is amorphous calcium phosphate (CaxHy(PO 4 )znH 2 O, n=3~4.5, 15-20% H 2 O), 1.5 is α-tricalcium phosphate (α-Ca 3 (PO 4 ) 2 ), 1.67 is hydroxyapatite (Ca 10 (PO 4 ) 6 ( OH) 2 ), and 2.0 is tetracalcium phosphate (Ca 4 (PO 4 ) 2 O).
그러나 이러한 인산칼슘계 합성골의 용해 특성은 용액의 pH에 따라 달라지기 때문에 그 제조가 용이하지 문제점이 있었다.However, since the dissolution property of the calcium phosphate-based synthetic bone varies depending on the pH of the solution, there is a problem in that it is not easy to manufacture.
더 나아가 인산칼슘계 합성골은 친수성이 우수하여 세포의 부착 또는 증식에 도움이 되며 Na +, K +, Li + 등과 같은 1가 이온이나 Sr 2+, Ba 2+, Pb 2+, Mn 2+, Sn 2+, Zn 2+ 등과 같은 2가 이온 또 Al 3+이온으로 치환하거나 결함을 생성시키면 재료의 물성을 변화시킬 수 있다. Furthermore, the calcium phosphate-based synthetic bone has excellent hydrophilicity and is helpful for cell adhesion or proliferation, and monovalent ions such as Na + , K + , Li +, etc. or Sr 2+ , Ba 2+ , Pb 2+ , Mn 2+ , Sn 2+ , Zn 2+, or the like, replacement with divalent ions, Al 3+ ions, or defects can change the material properties.
또 다른 성질을 부여하기 위해 고온 처리를 할 수도 있으며, 고온열처리 시 일부 인산칼슘계 합성골은 인산염의 휘발을 일으켜 Ca/P가 낮은 물질로 상전이를 일으킬 수도 있다.In order to impart another property, high-temperature treatment may be performed, and during high-temperature heat treatment, some calcium phosphate-based synthetic bones cause volatilization of phosphate, resulting in a phase transition to a material with low Ca/P.
한편, 상기 octacalcium phosphate(OCP)는 칼슘과 인의 비율이 1.33인 인산칼슘계 세라믹으로, 용해 특성이 너무 빠르지도 느리지도 않아 신생골이 자라기 전까지 골시멘트로서의 역할을 잘 수행하고, 신생골이 자라나온 이후에는 일부 용해되어 사라져 신생골이 잘 성장할 수 있는 환경을 만들어주고 또한, 세포접착성이 좋고 세포독성이 없으며 시험관 실험과 동물 실험 결과들이 매우 우수하여 최근 합성골 이식재로 주목을 받고 있다.On the other hand, the octacalcium phosphate (OCP) is a calcium phosphate-based ceramic with a calcium and phosphorus ratio of 1.33, and its dissolution property is neither too fast nor too slow, so it plays a role as bone cement well until new bones grow, and after new bones grow, It partially dissolves and disappears, creating an environment in which new bones can grow well, and has good cell adhesion and non-cytotoxicity, and the results of test-tube and animal experiments are very excellent, which is attracting attention as a synthetic bone graft material.
그러나, 상기 OCP는 pH에 의해 쉽게 다른 물질로 변하는 특성이 있어 고순도의 OCP를 대량으로 합성하는데 어려움이 많았고 이로 인해 아직까지 생체재료시장에서 유통되고 있지 않고 있는 문제점이 있었다.However, since the OCP has a property of easily changing into another material by pH, it is difficult to synthesize high-purity OCP in large quantities, and thus, there is a problem that it has not been distributed in the biomaterial market yet.
본 발명은 상술한 문제점들을 해결하기 위해 창안된 것으로, 합성골 이식재 특히, OCP를 포함하는 인산칼슘계 합성골 이식재를 간단하고 신속하며 고순도로 대량 제조할 수 있는 합성골 이식재 제조장치 제공을 일 목적으로 한다.The present invention was invented to solve the above-described problems, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a synthetic bone graft material manufacturing apparatus capable of mass-producing a synthetic bone graft material, in particular, a calcium phosphate-based synthetic bone graft material including OCP in a simple, rapid and high purity manner. To do.

발명에서 사용되는 용어는 가능한 현재 널리 사용되는 일반적인 용어를 선택하였으나, 특정한 경우는 출원인이 임의로 선정한 용어도 있는데 이 경우에는 단순한 용어의 명칭이 아닌 발명의 상세한 설명 부분에 기재되거나 사용된 의미를 고려하여 그 의미가 파악되어야 할 것이다. As for terms used in the invention, general terms that are currently widely used are selected, but in certain cases, some terms are arbitrarily selected by the applicant. In this case, the meanings described or used in the detailed description of the invention are considered rather than the names of simple terms. The meaning should be grasped.
이하, 첨부한 도면에 도시된 바람직한 실시예들을 참조하여 본 발명의 기술적 구성을 상세하게 설명한다. Hereinafter, the technical configuration of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to exemplary embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings.
그러나, 본 발명은 여기서 설명되는 실시예에 한정되지 않고 다른 형태로 구체화 될 수도 있다. 명세서 전체에 걸쳐 동일한 참조번호는 동일한 구성요소를 나타낸다.However, the present invention is not limited to the embodiments described herein and may be embodied in other forms. The same reference numbers throughout the specification indicate the same elements.
이와 관련하여 먼저, 도 1은 본 발명의 일실시 예에 따른 합성골 이식재 제조장의 전체 구성을 도시한 사시도이며, 도 2는 도 1에 도시된 합성골 이식재 제조장의 측면도다.In this regard, first, FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing the overall configuration of a synthetic bone graft manufacturing plant according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a side view of the synthetic bone graft manufacturing plant shown in FIG. 1.
상기 도 1 및 2를 참조하면, 본 발명의 일실시 예에 따른 합성골 이식재 제조장치(100)는 합성골 이식재 원료물질이 투입되어 반응시키기 위한 반응챔버(110)를 포함한다.1 and 2, an apparatus 100 for manufacturing a synthetic bone graft material according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a reaction chamber 110 for reacting raw materials for a synthetic bone graft material.
이때, 상기 반응챔버(110)는 상기 합성골 이식재 원료물질이 투입되어 반응하는 공간으로, 다양한 형상으로 이루어질 수 있으나, 본 발명의 일실시 예에 있어서 상기 반응챔버(110)는 원기둥 형상으로 이루어진다.At this time, the reaction chamber 110 is a space in which the raw material of the synthetic bone graft material is input and reacts, and may be formed in various shapes. In one embodiment of the present invention, the reaction chamber 110 has a cylindrical shape.
아울러, 상기 반응챔버(110)는 다양한 소재로 이루어질 수 있으나, 본 발명의 일실시 예에 있어서 상기 반응챔버(110)는 내부의 반응과정을 육안으로 확인할 수 있도록 투명유리로 이루어진다.In addition, the reaction chamber 110 may be made of various materials, but in an embodiment of the present invention, the reaction chamber 110 is made of transparent glass so that the reaction process inside can be visually confirmed.
특히, 본 발명의 일실시 예에 있어서 상기 반응챔버(110)를 투명유리로 한정하는 이유는 다음과 같다.In particular, the reason for limiting the reaction chamber 110 to transparent glass in an embodiment of the present invention is as follows.
먼저, 상기 반응챔버에 투입되는 합성골 이식재 원료물질은 액상의 상태로 투입되게 되는데 이때, 투입되는 상기 합성골 이식재 원료물질의 열전도도는 약 0.6W/m.K이며 유리의 경우 약 1.1W/m.K로 합성골 이식재 원료물질과 유리의 열전도도 차이는 약 0.5가 된다.First, the raw material of the synthetic bone graft material is introduced into the reaction chamber in a liquid state. At this time, the thermal conductivity of the raw material of the synthetic bone graft material is about 0.6 W/mK and about 1.1 W/mK in the case of glass. The difference in thermal conductivity between the raw material of the synthetic bone graft material and the glass is about 0.5.
만약 상기 반응챔버(110)의 소재로 스테인리스 스틸을 이용하는 경우 스테인리스 스틸의 열전도도는 약 12~45W/m.K로, 합성골 이식재 원료물질의 열전도도와 차이가 심해 정밀한 온도제어가 어렵게된다.If stainless steel is used as the material of the reaction chamber 110, the thermal conductivity of stainless steel is about 12 to 45 W/m.K, and the difference from the thermal conductivity of the raw material of the synthetic bone graft material is severe, making precise temperature control difficult.
아울러, 유리의 경우 열팽창계수가 약 8.1×10 -5/℃로 작아 제품의 품질에 대한 영향을 최소화할 수 있다.In addition, in the case of glass, the coefficient of thermal expansion is about 8.1×10 -5 /℃, so that the influence on the quality of the product can be minimized.
이에 본 발명의 일실시 예에 따른 합성골 이식재 제조장치(100)는 상술한 바와 같이 상기 합성골 이식재 원료물질과 반응챔버(110) 간의 열전도도 차이를 최소화하여 정밀한 반응온도 제어가 가능하고, 열팽창계수에 따른 제품의 품질 저하를 최소화하기 위해 유리를 이용한다.Accordingly, the synthetic bone graft manufacturing apparatus 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention minimizes the difference in thermal conductivity between the raw material of the synthetic bone graft material and the reaction chamber 110 as described above, thereby enabling precise reaction temperature control and thermal expansion. Glass is used to minimize the deterioration of product quality due to counting.
한편, 본 발명의 일실시 예에 따른 합성골 이식재 제조장치(100)의 반응챔버(110)는 그 종횡비 즉, 세로와 가로의 비가 2:1 또는 3:1로 이루어진다. Meanwhile, the reaction chamber 110 of the apparatus 100 for manufacturing a synthetic bone graft material according to an embodiment of the present invention has an aspect ratio, that is, a vertical to horizontal ratio of 2:1 or 3:1.
이처럼 상기 반응챔버(110)의 종횡비를 2:1 또는 3:1로 한정하는 이유는 다음과 같다.The reason for limiting the aspect ratio of the reaction chamber 110 to 2:1 or 3:1 is as follows.
먼저, 상기 반응챔버(110) 내에는 합성골 이식재 원료물질이 투입되며, 투입된 상기 합성골 이식재 원료물질은 후술할 가온수단(150)에 의해 가열된다.First, a synthetic bone graft raw material is injected into the reaction chamber 110, and the injected synthetic bone graft raw material is heated by a heating means 150 to be described later.
이때, 상기 합성골 이식재 원료물질은 상기 가온수단(150)의 가열에 의해 증발이 발생하게되며 증발량은 상기 반응챔버(110)의 수평방향 단면적에 비례한다.In this case, the raw material of the synthetic bone graft material is evaporated by heating the heating means 150 and the evaporation amount is proportional to the horizontal cross-sectional area of the reaction chamber 110.
한편, 상기 합성골 이식재 원료물질의 증발은 증발이 발생하는 표면과 증발이 발생하지 않는 하부와의 농도차를 야기하게 되어 정량으로 투입된 합성골 이식재 원료물질로부터 원하는 순도 및 균질한 합성골 이식재 제조가 어렵게 된다.On the other hand, the evaporation of the raw material of the synthetic bone graft material causes a difference in concentration between the surface where evaporation occurs and the lower portion where evaporation does not occur. It becomes difficult.
이에 본 발명의 일실시 예에 따른 반응챔버(110)는 상기 합성골 이식재 원료물질의 증발량을 최소화하기 위해 상기 반응챔버(110)의 종횡비를 2:1 또는 3:1로 한정하였다.Accordingly, the reaction chamber 110 according to an embodiment of the present invention limited the aspect ratio of the reaction chamber 110 to 2:1 or 3:1 in order to minimize the evaporation amount of the raw material for the synthetic bone graft material.
한편, 상기 합성골 이식재 원료물질은 상기 반응챔버(110)의 상부가 개폐되도록 구비하여 상기 반응챔버(110)의 내부로 투입될 수 있으며, 도 1에 도시된 바와 같이 상기 반응챔버(110)의 상부에 합성골 이식재 원료물질 투입을 위한 투입구(115)를 구비하여 투입될 수도 있다.Meanwhile, the synthetic bone graft raw material may be introduced into the reaction chamber 110 by opening and closing the upper portion of the reaction chamber 110. As shown in FIG. It may be inserted by providing an inlet 115 for inputting raw materials of the synthetic bone graft material at the top.
한편, 본 발명의 일실시 예에 따른 합성골 이식재 제조장치(100)는 상기 반응챔버(110)의 상부에 구비되며 수직방향 회전축(121)이 구비된 구동모터(120)를 포함한다.Meanwhile, the apparatus 100 for manufacturing a synthetic bone graft material according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a driving motor 120 provided on the reaction chamber 110 and having a vertical rotation shaft 121.
이때, 상기 구동모터(120)는 합성골 이식재 원료물질의 교반반응을 위한 임펠러(impeller)(122)(122a)(122b)(122c)를 회전시키기 위한 구성으로 다양한 방식의 구동모터를 이용할 수 있으나, 본 발명의 일실시 예에 있어서 상기 구동모터는 RPM의 정밀한 제어가 용이한 스텝모터(step motor)를 이용한다.At this time, the driving motor 120 is a configuration for rotating the impeller (122) (122a) (122b) (122c) for the stirring reaction of the raw material of the synthetic bone graft material, and various types of driving motors may be used. , In one embodiment of the present invention, the drive motor uses a step motor that facilitates precise control of RPM.
한편, 본 발명의 일실시 예에 따른 합성골 이식재 제조장치(100)는 상기 회전축(121)과 연결되어 상기 반응챔버(110)의 내부에 투입된 상기 합성골 이식재 원료물질을 교반시켜 반응시키기 위한 적어도 하나 이상의 임펠러(122)를 포함한다.On the other hand, the synthetic bone graft manufacturing apparatus 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention is at least for reacting by stirring the raw material of the synthetic bone graft material that is connected to the rotation shaft 121 and introduced into the reaction chamber 110. It includes one or more impellers 122.
