The discovery of bioactive glasses (BGs) in the late 1960s by Larry Hench et al. was driven
by the need for implant materials with an ability to bond to living tissues, which were …

For the last few decades, there has been a growing interest in using glasses for biomedical
applications. Bioactive glasses are a group of surface reactive glasses which can initiate a …

A series of borophosphate based glasses were prepared with a main composition (50P 2 O
5–30B 2 O 3–10CaO–10Na 2 O) wt%. The effect of addition wt%(of cobalt oxide (0.2, 0.5 …

Attributable to their low chemical durability, borate-based glasses have been demonstrated
to convert rapidly to hydroxy-carbonated apatite (HCA), the inorganic component of bone …

The present work employed the finite element model (FEM) to predict the influence of
successive increases in borate (B 2 O 3) contents, from 0 to 25 mol%, on mechanical …

Vanadium borate glasses containing 5 to 25% mol vanadium oxide (V 2 O 5) were
investigated. Prepared via the melt-quench technique, these glasses were examined by …

Borate glasses differ from silicates as they do not always exhibit linear property trends with
the addition of modifying elements. Rather, various property maxima, notably boron …

Optical and FTIR spectral investigations of prepared undoped and WO 3-or MoO 3-doped
glasses from ZnO-CdO-P 2 O 5 glassy system were carried out before and after irradiation …

Borophosphate glasses were prepared with the nominal molar compositions 16Na 2 O-(24-
y) CaO-ySrO-xB 2 O 3-(60-x) P 2 O 5 (mol%), where 0≤ x≤ 60 and y= 0, 12, and 24 …

In this paper, we report a facile, low cost synthesis and characterization of silver
nanoparticles (AgNPs) on borophosphate glass by a two-step process involving a melting …
