A biomaterial composition for the resorption/substitution of organic supporting tissues, including 20-75 wt. % of an inorganic phase consisting of particles that include either hydroxyapatite (A) optionally mixed with tricalcium phosphate β (B), or calcium-titaniumphosphate (Ca(Ti) 4 (PO 4 ) 6 ) (C), and 80-25 wt. % of a liquid phase including an aqueous solution of a water-soluble biocompatible polymer that is cross-linkable under the effect of the pH of the medium. The composition is sterilizable, injectable and curable in biological media to form a biomaterial for replacing supporting tissues. |
