Abstract:
1. A bone repair material comprising a mixture of: A) a first granular component having a diameter larger than 20 μm selected from the group consisting of: calcium phosphate, calcium pyrophosphate and calcium sulfate dihydrate; B) a second component consisting of apatite powder having a particle diameter smaller than 1 μm; and C) a third component comprising water or an aqueous solution; wherein the second component and the third component collectively represent at least 35 volume-% of the total bone repair material, wherein the bone repair material forms a paste when the first, second and third components are mixed together to form the mixture, wherein the bone repair material does not contain a hydrogel, and wherein the first granular component provides a scaffold on which bone cells can anchor and proliferate when the bone repair material is used to repair a defect in a bone filled with an aqueous body fluid.
