Definitions
- the present invention relates to a calcium phosphate powder capable of preparing a slurry for laminated modeling having excellent dispersion stability in laminated modeling and producing a high-strength three-dimensional laminated model.
- artificial bone has been used as a substitute for human bone for bone defects for the treatment of bone diseases such as bone fractures.
- Metals, ceramics, polymer materials and the like are used as materials for artificial bones.
- Ceramic is inferior to metal and polymer materials in mechanical strength, but has excellent biocompatibility and is highly useful as a material for artificial bone.
- calcium phosphate such as hydroxyapatite (HAP) and ⁇ -tricalcium phosphate ( ⁇ -TCP) has the same composition as human bone and has excellent bone inducibility.
- HAP hydroxyapatite
- ⁇ -TCP ⁇ -tricalcium phosphate
- the artificial bone formed by calcium phosphate is an artificial bone having the same composition as the bone, the treatment speed is not as fast as that of the autologous bone. Therefore, the artificial bone formed by the calcium phosphate has the same structure as the autologous bone. Therefore, block-shaped and granular bones with porous bodies and communication holes have been developed, but the treatment speed is still slower than that of autologous bone, and it is necessary to mold the bone according to the defect site at the time of surgery.
- Non-Patent Document 1 discloses that an artificial bone was produced by a powder laminated molding method using a powder containing ⁇ -tricalcium phosphate, tetracalcium phosphate, calcium hydrogen phosphate, and HAP.

パウダテスタ(ホソカワミクロン株式会社、PT-X)を用いて、装置の「ゆるみかさ密度」を選択し、カップ容量10cm3、目開き710μmの篩、振動時間50秒、振幅0.5mmの条件で行い、リン酸カルシウム粉末がカップからあふれた所で粉体の落下を止めた。カップ上の盛り上がっている粉末を擦り切り、粉末の入ったカップの重量から、空のカップの重量を差し引きすることで、1cm3当たりの粉末重量を求め、ゆるみ嵩密度(g/mL)とした。
前記ゆるみ嵩密度の測定後、引き続き装置の表示に従い、カップ上部にタップ密度測定用の筒(内径2.2cm、高さ3.2cm)を取り付けた。次いで、振幅0.5mmで振動させている目開き710μmの篩を介してリン酸カルシウム粉末を筒内に落下させ、筒の容量の8割程度までリン酸カルシウム粉末を充填した。この状態でタッピングを開始し、合計180回のタッピングを行った。タッピング中は、筒内のリン酸カルシウム粉末量が筒の容量の2割程度にまで圧縮された際には、装置の表示に従って、再度、振幅0.5mmで振動させている目開き710μmの篩を介してリン酸カルシウム粉末を筒内に落下させて筒の容量の8割程度までリン酸カルシウム粉末を補充した。タッピング終了後、筒を外して、カップ上の盛り上がっている紛体を摺り切り、粉体の入ったカップの重量を測定した。この重量から空のカップの重量を差し引きし、カップ内の粉体重量を計算し、1cm3当たりの粉体重量を求め、かため嵩密度(g/mL)とした。
X線回折装置(株式会社リガク、SmartLab)を用いて、以下の条件で測定を行った。測定条件は、管球:Cu、管電圧:40kV、管電流:30mA、スキャン軸2θ/θ、スキャンモード:連続、範囲指定:絶対、スキャン範囲:2θ=20~40°、スキャンスピード/計数時間:4.0°/min、ステップ幅:0.02°、入射スリット:2/3°、長手制限スリット:10mm、受光スリット1:10mm、受光スリット2:10mm、検出器:D/teX Ultra)で測定した。
前記結晶構造の測定結果から統合粉末X線解析ソフトウェアPDXL2のRIR法(Reference Intensity Ratio:参照強度比)を用いてβ-TCP及びHAPの含量を測定した。そのときのDBカード番号はβ-TCPは2128、HAPは01-076-0694を使用した。
2-1.積層造形用スラリーの製造
リン酸カルシウム粉末20.0gを正確に計りとって撹拌脱泡装置用の容器に入れた。次いで、紫外線硬化性樹脂及び分散剤の混合液を添加していき、撹拌脱泡装置で撹拌した。なお、実施例1~5、7、9及び比較例1~7のリン酸カルシウム粒に対しては、紫外線硬化性樹脂(株式会社エスケーファイン、SZシリーズ専用アクリル系光硬化性樹脂)及び分散剤(株式会社エスケーファイン、ポリカルボン酸系分散剤)の混合液を使用し、実施例6及び8のリン酸カルシウム粒に対しては、紫外線硬化性樹脂(株式会社エスケーファイン、SZシリーズ専用アクリル系光硬化性樹脂)及び分散剤(株式会社エスケーファイン、ポリカルボン酸系分散剤、脂肪酸アミド類系分散剤)の混合液を使用した。流動性が出た時点で混合液の添加を止め、積層造形用スラリーを得た。ここで、流動性が出た時点とは、前記混合液を添加しスラリーが形成された時点であり、混合液の添加によりリン酸カルシウム粉末の凝集がなくなった時点である。
前記で得られた積層造形用スラリーから10~14mLを分取し、15mLの遠心管Aに入れ3日静置した。静置後、遠心管A内で分離している液を別の15mL遠心管Bに移し、その時の液量を分離液量Xとした。さらに遠心管Aを45°傾け、分離液を採取した遠心管Bに遠心管Aからチクソトロピー性がなく落下した液が入るようにセットし、2時間静置した。2時間静置後、液の落下がないことを確認し、遠心管A内に残り、かつ粉体の凝集が見られた液を沈降液量Yとした。この操作後に、遠心管A内に残り、且つ粉体の凝集が見られた液は固形分が沈殿して流動性を失っており、積層造形に使用すると、造形装置内で分離するおそれがあり、造形濃度の不均一化や装置の詰まりに繋がるといえる。分離液量X及び沈降液量Yの値から、以下の式に従って、分離率及び沈降率を求めた。
