The paper reports the first attempt at changing cooling treatment of synthesizing method in order to investigate its effect on the physical properties of sol-gel derived nano bioactive glass-ceramic in the system 58SiO2-33CaO-9P2O5 (wt.%). We hypothesized that the method of cooling may affect the properties of nano bioactive glass-ceramic. To test this hypothesis, two different method of cooling treatment was applied after calcinations in synthesizing method. Both quenched and unquenched nano bioactive glass-ceramics were soaked in Ringer?s solution with bovine serum albumin (BSA) for bioactivity evaluation. The obtained samples were analyzed for their composition, crystalinity and morphology through X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), surface electron microscope (SEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM). The SEM images showed that the morphology of nano bioactive glass-ceramics was completely changed by quenching process. Results of in vitro bioactivity evaluation revealed that the unquenched attains faster apatite formation ability than the quenched sample. Other properties of these two morphologically different nano bioactive glass-ceramics were strongly discussed.

In this research work new type of bioglass ceramics successfully synthesized the bioglass composition: 50SiO2−30CaO−10P2O5−10MgO by sol–gel technique which was further heated up to 600 °C. Different characterization techniques were applied on the prepared bioglass powder to obtain the structural information. X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis confirms the amorphous nature and apatite formation on surface of the sample. The time dependent biological activity was tested on immersed samples with simulated body fluid (SBF). Structural configuration of the hydroxyapatite layer along with nano-size as well as texture properties of the samples were confirmed using field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM) and Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) techniques, respectively. It was found that magnesium performs a pivotal role in bone proliferation and improves the thermophysical properties of the synthesized bioglass ceramics. The antibacterial effects were studied by two well-known pathogen Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus).

In this study a new P-free system applied to the production of Bioactive Glass Nanoparticles (BG-NPs) is proposed, in order to evaluate the effect of suppressing this component, in the bioactivity capability of the materials. The BG-NPs, based on both ternary (SiO2-CaO-P2O5) and binary (SiO2-CaO) systems, were prepared via a sol-gel method. The morphology and composition of the BG-NPs were studied using FTIR and SEM. New composite membranes were produced combining chitosan and the BG-NPs. The bioactive character of the prepared biodegradable membranes was accessed in vitro by analyzing the capability for apatite formation onto the surface after being immersed in simulated body fluid (SBF). EDX and SEM were used to confirm the bioactivity of the materials.

Bioglasses and bioactive glass-ceramics have found increasingly wide application in medicine and dentistry. Using sol-gel method, is possible to obtain glass and glass-ceramic bioactive materials of new generation, characterized the higher bioactivity than melted bioglasses. These materials can be produced in various final forms, as powders, thin layers on different base and porous sinters. Production of porous bioactive sinters from gel-derived powders is a new problem and the parameters controlling this process are not recognized yet. The aim of the study was to obtain porous bioactive sinters from gel-derived powders of the SiO2-CaO-P2O5 system of four various chemical compositions (S2, II, I, A2) and the characterization of properties of these new materials. The starting powders differ from each other in the content of the basic components, at the molar ratio of CaO to SiO2 equals 0.2-1.35. To obtain the porous sinters a method of burning additions and deposition of the casting slip on the polymeric sponge was used. Sintering was realized in several stages, at the maximal temperature 1200oC. By selecting appropriate conditions of sintering, a durable material of high open porosity up to 77 % was obtained. Its porous structure was characterized by a prevailing number of small micropores of similar dimensions, uniformly distributed in the material. The phase composition of obtained sinters was determined by the X-ray diffraction method. All sinters represented glass-ceramic materials with apatite, cristoballite and calcium silicates as a main crystalline phases. In order to preliminary determination bioactivity of obtained sinters, test in vitro in simulated body fluid SBF was conducted. It was found that hydroxyapatite formation on the sinter surface occurs only in the case of biomaterials of highest calcium concentration.

Strontium (Sr) stimulates osteoblast and inhibits osteoclast activities in-vitro and is used clinically as a treatment for osteoporosis. In this research, the effect of Sr substitution on the apatite formation of sol-gel derived bioactive glass (BG) (55.90SiO2-1.72P2O5 -21.67Na2O - (20.69-x) CaO -x SrO) (x=0, 5 and 8 mol. %) were investigated. The synthesized Sr doped BG samples were treated in Hank's Balanced Salt Solution (HBSS) for 14 days to study the bioactivity. The achieved samples were evaluated by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and Scanning electron microscope (SEM). In XRD, the hydroxyapatite (HA) crystalline peak for 8% Sr-BG is less compared with others. When Sr amount is increased to 8%, the low crystalline peaks of HA were detected although the same soaking duration. FTIR spectra supported the delay precipitation of calcium phosphate (CaP), especially for the specimen containing 8% Sr. After 14 days soaking, SEM images confirmed the bioactivity of the synthesized samples by the formation of apatite on the glass surface.

In this study; in-vitro bioactivity characterization of machinable glass-ceramics having 85 wt% sodium mica (NaMg3AlSi3O10F2) and 15 wt% fluoroapatite has been carried out. Two different heat treatment procedures are applied to the machinable glass-ceramics. The first one is nucleation at 610°C for 2 hours and crystallization at 1000°C for 3 hours and the second is nucleation at 610°C for 2 hours and crystallization at 1000°C for 4 hours. It is observed that increasing the crystallization time to 4 hours resulted in the increasing the formation of hydroxyapatite layer on surface. According to the microstructural investigations, the morphology of the precipitated crystals are different. In addition, the speed of the precipitation of hydroxyapatite is higher in glass-ceramic B than A. Thin film XRD analysis supports these results.

In this paper, three ceramic compositions 50SiO2-50CaO (A), 45SiO2-45CaO-10P2O5 (B) and 40SiO2-40CaO-20P2O5 (C) (wt %) were synthesized by using the sol-gel technique. XRD analysis demonstrates that only sample C can form the glass material. Treated temperatures and heated times were also evaluated. Analysis data showed that the bioglass 40SiO2-40CaO-20P2O5 (wt %) can successfully elaborate when the ceramic powder heated at 750 oC for 3 hours. ‘‘In vitro’’ experiment was effectuated to investigate the bioactivity of bioglass 40SiO2-40CaO-20P2O5 by soaking powder samples in SBF solution. Obtained result confirmed the formation of hydroxyapatite (HA) phase on glass’s surface after 15 days of immersion, in which HA formation orients following (211) and (222) miller planes in crystalline structure of HA phase.
