Application
Calcium phosphate tribasic serves multiple purposes in both medical and industrial applications due to its unique chemical composition, containing significant levels of calcium. As a mineral component of bones and teeth, it is utilized in therapeutic settings, assisting with the treatment and prevention of osteoporosis and aiding in tissue replacement for bone repair. It also functions as a drug carrier delivering medications directly to bone tissue. In its nanopowder form, it can be incorporated into biodegradable polymer composites or deposited onto biocompatible surfaces, enhancing bone-forming cell growth and proliferation. Additionally, in the pharmaceutical industry, it is extensively used as a capsule diluent and tablet filler or binder, providing essential calcium and phosphorus for bone health. Its bioavailability for calcium absorption is notably improved when combined with cholecalciferol (vitamin D3). Furthermore, in food production, it acts as an effective anticaking agent, ensuring free-flowing properties in powdered products.
