The synthesis of active silicate phases by combined sol gel and
high-temperature selfpropagating wave method, is described in this paper.
They show a significant decrease of setting time and good mechanical
properties, which are very important for its potential application in
endodontic practice. Particularly, process of hydration of calcium silicate
phases is carefully analyzed, from the aspect of phase changes during their
soaking in water for 1, 3, 7 and 28 days. XRD and FTIR methods were used for
phase analysis of all samples, while morphological characteristics and
chemical composition of the given phases were investigated by SEM and EDS.
