Abstract
Self-setting, bioactive, absorbable composites are derived from inorganic phosphate microparticles and a cyanoacrylate matrix of a methoxypropyl cyanoacrylate at a weight to volume ratio of at least 20/80 of microparticles/matrix. The self-setting composites are capable of the controlled release of bone mineralizing ions, antimicrobials, and bone growth promoters. Such composites are useful as bone cements, fillers, and/or substitutes.
