Work presents the effects of several factors on the mechanical strength of a calcium phosphate cement (CPC) based on alpha tricalcium phosphate and correlates the results with the microstructure and percentage of conversion to hydroxyapatite. Conversion rate increased by raising the setting temperature in the studied range (4–90 °C), but the strength exhibited an increasing-decreasing trend due to changes in the morphology of hydrated crystals. Plate-like crystals were formed in the range of 22–60 °C, mechanically reinforcing the material, whereas the formation and refinement of needle-like crystals at higher setting temperature decreased the strength. Moreover, cements with dissimilar particle sizes had different optimal hydrolysis temperatures that resulted in the maximum strength. The finest powder led to higher strength at lower setting temperature due to the formation of a more compact crystal network and higher conversion. Therefore, optimization of powder particle size may allow to achieve the highest possible strength at room temperature, being beneficial for the production of the strongest pre-set CPC-based implants without the use of energy. Furthermore, the particle size can be also engineered to produce formulations that develop the highest strength at physiological temperature, with application as injectable bone grafts. The incorporation and crosslinking of gelatine further increased the mechanical strength of pre-set cements by bridging the hydroxyapatite crystals, the setting temperature showing a similar effect to that of gelatine-free cements. In contrast, moisture decreased the strength and reduced the brittleness by solvating intramolecular association between hydroxyapatite crystals and between gelatine molecules. Moreover, large cement bodies were slightly weaker than small ones, but the size effect was not statistically significant.
