- Abstract:
- Processing properties of PMMA bone cements can be divided into four phases: 1. mixing, 2. waiting, 3. processing and 4. curing. Each of these phases is subject to several external influencing factors, such as temperature and humidity, which must be considered during application. Instructions for use provided by the manufacturers of PMMA bone cements and mixing and application systems contain important information on correct application. The processing properties of PMMA bone cements and possible factors influencing the curing process are of great importance for safe procedures in the operating room. Knowledge of the viscosity and consistency of the PMMA bone cement from the dough phase to complete curing facilitates preparation and application, which in the long term significantly improves the requirements placed on PMMA cements regarding the function and service life of the implant.
