Case Study

Calcium Sulfate-Based Medical Materials Prepared from α-Calcium Sulfate Hemihydrate

Tang M, et al. Materials Science and Engineering: C, 2010, 30(8), 1107-1111.

α-Calcium sulfate hemihydrate (α-hemihydrate) can be used to prepare calcium sulfate-based materials (CSBM), which has good biocompatibility, bioabsorption, osteoinduction and osteoconductivity. The crystal habit and particle characteristics of α-hemihydrate are important factors affecting the physical properties of CSBM. In this system, the α-hemihydrate process with an aspect ratio of 1 to 3:1, a maximum size of 125 μm, and good particle size distribution is suitable for obtaining high-performance medical CSBM.
Preparation of α-calcium sulfate hemihydrate-based CSBM
· First, α-hemihydrate crystals were prepared from reagent grade calcium sulfate dihydrate using a solvent-mediated phase change method. By adding different concentrations of materials and additives, crystals with aspect ratios of 0.5-1:1, 1-3:1 and 3-6:1 were prepared.
· The obtained α-calcium sulfate hemihydrate crystals with different aspect ratios were hydrated and hardened to prepare CSBM.
· The samples were tested for hydration properties, normal consistency, and hardened CSBM strength using a TAM air isothermal calorimeter, a consistency meter, and an automated compressor test, respectively.

Calcium Sulfate α-Hemihydrate for Oil Well Applications

Meireles P D S, et al. Journal of Cleaner Production, 2019, 220, 1215-1221.

Calcium sulfate α-hemihydrate (α-HH) is a material with high ecological potential and is considered a less environmentally aggressive coagulant than Portland cement. Hemihydrate has hydrating properties when in contact with water, and crystallizes and solidifies after a certain period of time, gaining mechanical resistance. Slurry systems based on α-HH as a basic coagulant for oil well cementing have been developed. The α-HH system with a water/gypsum ratio (WGR) of 0.5 showed the best results.
Slurry systems based on α-calcium sulfate hemihydrate
· Calcium sulfate α-hemihydrate (0.3672 mL/g) and fresh water were used for the formulations of the calcium sulfate based pastes.
· The additive used to enhance the technological parameters of the formulations were: a sodium tetraborate decahydrate (Na2B4O7.10H2O) retardant additive (0.5828 mL/g), polycarboxylate based dispersant (0.9088 mL/g), antifoam (1.0206 mL/g), glass G cement and bentonite.
