Zusammenfassung:A room temperature stable, substantially phase pure ±-C 3 P product is provided, which may be included in a reactive composition suitable for preparation of calcium phosphate cements. The ±-C 3 P product may be obtained by heating a tricalcium phosphate source to a temperature sufficient to convert substantially all of the tricalcium phosphate source to a substantially phase pure ±-C 3 P product. The temperature of the resultant product is rapidly cooled to a temperature below about 700°C, resulting in the room temperature stable, ±-C 3 P product. The resultant ±-C 3 P product may be milled to provide a composition suitable for use in cement production.
