Abstract
Abstract A method for producing a calcium phosphate-based material comprising: (a) molding a calcium phosphate powder; (b) preliminarily calcining the resulting molding in a vacuum or under a reduced pressure until the relative density is 95% or more; and (c) firing the molding in air, an inert gas, or nitrogen gas.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim
64 words
A method for producing a calcium phosphate-based material comprising: (a) molding a calcium phosphate powder; (b) preliminarily calcining the resulting molding until closed pores are formed; and (c) firing said molding in air, an inert gas, or nitrogen gas, wherein said preliminary calcining is carried out under a pressure of less than 1 Torr and at a temperature of from 950° to 1,000° C.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
64 words
A method for producing a calcium phosphate-based material comprising: (a) molding a calcium phosphate powder; (b) preliminarily calcining the resulting molding until closed pores are formed; and (c) firing said molding in air, an inert gas, or nitrogen gas, wherein said preliminary calcining is carried out under a pressure of less than 1 Torr and at a temperature of from 950° to 1,000° C.
