We investigated the electrical polarizability of MgO and B2O3 containing bioactive glass (MBG). The MBG material with good manufacturing properties but low bioactivity was electrically polarized at a high dc field. The electrical polarizability of MBG was evaluated by thermally stimulated depolarization current (TSDC) measurements and immersion in simulated body fluid (SBF). The early precipitation of calcium phosphate on the negatively charged surface of the treated MBG demonstrated the increased bioactivity of the material and confirmed its polarizability. It is suggested that the electrical interactions between the polarized MBG and ions in SBF promoted the formation of the calcium phosphate precipitation. Accordingly, the increased bioactivity of the MBG in SBF is suggested to demonstrate the conversion of MBG into electrovector ceramics by the polarization treatment.

Nickel ion release from NiTi shape memory alloy is an issue for biomedical applications. This study was planned to study the effect of C[Formula: see text] implantation on nickel ion release and affinity of calcium phosphate precipitation on NiTi alloy. Four annealed samples are chosen for the present study; three samples with oxidation layer and the fourth without oxidation layer. X-ray diffraction (XRD) spectra reveal amorphization with ion implantation. Proton-induced X-ray emission (PIXE) result shows insignificant increase in Ni release in simulated body fluid (SBF) and calcium phosphate precipitation up to [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]ions/cm2. Then Nickel contents show a sharp increase for greater ion doses. Corrosion potential decreases by increasing the dose but all the samples passivate after the same interval of time and at the same level of [Formula: see text] in ringer lactate solution. Hardness of samples initially increases at greater rate (up to [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]ions/cm[Formula: see text] and then increases with lesser rate. It is found that [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]ions/cm2 ([Formula: see text] is a safer limit of implantation on NiTi alloy, this limit gives us lesser ion release, better hardness and reasonable hydroxyapatite incubation affinity.

Na2O-CaO-P2O5-SiO2-Al2O3 (NCPSA) glass was investigated in its electrical polarizability by complex impedance and thermally stimulated depolarization current (TSDC) measurements. Moreover, the NCPSA glass was also subjected to a chemical treatment for bioactivity improvement. The effects of the electrical polarization and the chemical treatment on apatite formability of NCPSA glass were investigated by immersion test using simulated body fluid. From the result of complex impedance measurements, the activation energies for electrical conductivities NCPSA glass was 1.1eV. From the TSDC measurements, the polarized NCPSA glass showed monotonically increasing curves in depolarization current density spectra. The stored electrical charge calculated from TSDC measurements of the NCPSA glass polarized with electrical dc field of 2kV・cm-1 at 600°C for 1h was 4.91 mC・cm-2. The NCPSA glass treated with 1M NaOH indicated apatite formability in SBF and exhibited bioactivity. We disclosed that the combination of electropolarization and chemical treatment changed the apatite formability of the NCPSA glass in SBF, consequently, improved the bioactivity of the glass.

We have shown that hydroxyapatite (HA), which characteristics were similar to those of bone’s inorganic components, had polarization capability and was possible to accumulate electricity under high temperature and pressure. Then, we presumed that bones had polarization capability which enabled electrical storage and conducted the experiment to measure the polarization capability of bones using rabbit’s femurs. After preparing and polarizing bone samples using KOH treatment (koh), KOH and baking treatment (koh+bake) and decalcification treatment (decalcification) as well as the bone without any treatment (untreat), quantitative amounts of stored charge in samples were determined by thermally stimulated depolarization current (TSDC) measurement of these samples. Under the condition of 400 °C for 1 h with the electric fields of 5kV/cm, samples of koh, koh+bake, and untreat showed polarization capability. In addition, under the polarization condition of 37 °C for 1 hour with the electric fields of 5kV/cm, all samples showed polarization capability. Those findings can be summarized that bones have the polarization capability which enables electrical storage and polarization of bones is possible even under the low temperature condition, which was at 37 °C in our experiment, where polarization is impossible for HA.
