Abstract
An infrared spectroscopic study has been made of the development of crystallinity (hopeite) in dental zinc phosphate cements. Crystallization in the bulk of a cement is prevented only by the incorporation, in the liquid, of aluminum which forms complexes with phosphoric acid. The development of surface crystallinity is related to the chemical composition of the cement and the speed of the reaction. No acid phosphates are to be found in the matrix which consists solely of neutral orthophosphates.Entities:
