Miscellaneous aqueous cements

This chapter is devoted to a miscellaneous group of aqueous acid-base cements that do not fit into other categories. There are numerous cements in this group. Although many are of little practical interest, some are of theoretical interest, while others have considerable potential as sustained-release devices and biomedical materials. Deserving of special mention as biomedical materials of the future are the recently invented polyelectrolyte cements based on poly(vinylphosphonic adds), which are related both to the orthophosphoric acid and poly(alkenoic add) cements.
