Experimental data on the properties of polymer-modified cement grouts using epoxy and acrylic resin emulsions.

ABSTRACT: The use of additives to improve the quality of cement grouts is crucial for civil engineering, especially in foundation construction. This article presents experimental data concerning the compressive strength, elastic modulus, bleeding and injectability of microfine cement grouts modified with epoxy and acrylic resin emulsions. Strength properties were obtained at different curing ages. For further analysis and detailed discussion of properties of polymer-modified cement grouts, see "Fundamental properties of epoxy resin-modified cement grouts" (C.A. Anagnostopoulos, G. Sapidis, E. Papastergiadis, 2016) [1].

Project description:ObjectiveThis work focuses on tackling the inadequate bone/implant interface strength of acrylic bone cements, which is a formidable problem diminishing their clinical performance, especially in percutaneous kyphoplasty surgery.MethodsA new strategy of incorporating magnesium particles into clinically used poly(methylmethacrylate) (PMMA) bone cement to prepare a surface-degradable bone cement (SdBC) is proposed and validated both in vitro and in vivo.ResultsThis surface degradation characteristic enables osseointegrative, angiogenic and antiinfective properties. SdBC showed fast surface degradation and formed porous surfaces as designed, while the desirable high compressive strengths (≥70 MPa) of the cement were preserved. Besides, the SdBC with proper Mg content promoted osteoblast adhesion, spreading, proliferation and endothelial cell angiogenesis capacity compared with PMMA. Also, SdBC demonstrated clear inhibitory effect on Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. In vivo evaluation on SdBC by the rat femur defect model showed that the bone/implant interface strength was significantly enhanced in SdBC (push-out force of 11.8 ± 1.5 N for SdBC vs 7.0 ± 2.3N for PMMA), suggesting significantly improved osseointegration and bone growth induced by the surface degradation of the cement. The injectability, setting times and compressive strengths of SdBC with proper content of Mg particles (2.8 wt% and 5.4 wt%) were comparable with those of the clinical acrylic bone cement, while the heat release during polymerization was reduced (maximum temperature 78 ± 1 °C for PMMA vs 73.3 ± 1.5 °C for SdBC).ConclusionsThis work validates a new concept of designing bioactive bone/implant interface in PMMA bone cement. And this surface-degradable bone cement possesses great potential for minimally invasive orthopaedic surgeries such as percutaneous kyphoplasty.The translational potential of this articleThis work reports PMMA/Mg surface-degradable acrylic bone cements that possess enhanced osseointegrative, angiogenic and antiinfective properties that are lacking in the clinically used acrylic bone cements. This new kind of bone cements could improve the treatment outcome of many orthopaedic surgeries such as percutaneous kyphoplasty and arthroplasty.
