Summary of effects of Sr/Sr2+ addition on physicochemical properties of BMs.

Materials Physicochemical properties Reference
HA Improved mechanical strength, increased solubility, decreased crystallinity, and increased d-spacing and crystal cell unit parameters. [111,112]
β-TCP Increase elastic modulus and mechanical strength [113]
BGs Increase crystallinity, crystallization starting point, crystallization peak value, and degradation rate [150]
SA As the concentration of strontium ions increases, the crosslinking degree and elastic modulus of SA increase, and the swelling and degradation rate decrease [204]
CaSO4 Decrease the degradation rate [221]
