6.3.5Calcium hydroxide Calcium hydroxideis a substance that has been used in dentistry for many years for itsastringentproperties. It is available from veterinary wholesalers and suppliers of veterinary dental products in several forms, including a powder that reacts with carbon dioxide in the air ...
Calcium hydroxide is a common cosmetic ingredient in hairstraightening and hair-removal products, and in shaving preparations. 1) In dentistry, it is used as a filling agent and in dental pastes to encourage deposition of secondary dentine. Calcium hydroxide was traditionally used as an escharotic...

Calcium hydroxide (lime) may be the cheapest method to flocculate P. tricornutum, but it is not suitable if the end product is EPA-rich oil for human consumption. For this reason, 20 ppm chitosan (Şirin et al., 2012) was recommended as flocculant, followed by centrifugation and drying...
Biodentine stands out for its high levels of Ca2+release compared to other materials, such as calcium hydroxide (CH) cement, mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA), and resin-modified calcium silicate (TheraCal LC).[1]The material's solubility plays a significant role in this substantial Ca2+release...

On reaction with water, these hydraulic cements produce amorphous calcium silicate hydrate and crystalline calcium hydroxide as the principal hydration phases that bind the unreacted mineral particles together to form a conglomerated structure3. Calcium silicate cements designed for biomedical uses are ...
Also, hydroxide, one of the primary constituents of hydroxyapatite, has been reported to be absent in bone mineral [22]. Finally, bone mineral is often described as poorly crystalline, which probably relates to the small size of the crystals as well as residual stresses in the crystal lattice...
