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 …

Biomaterials and tissue engineering are rapidly expanding fields for research and also
commercial exploitation. A greater understanding of the interaction of materials with cells …

The general trend in biomaterials is to use and employ materials that play an active role in
tissue regeneration rather than passive and inert materials. Therefore, understanding how a …

This paper presents the results of a study of the thermal properties, X-ray powder diffraction
(XRPD), NMR and solubility of a range of phosphate-based glasses. Ion release and pH …

This paper describes a fast, low-cost but reliable process for the fabrication of microfluidic
systems on soda-lime glass substrates. Instead of using an expensive metal or …

Calcium phosphate (CaP) glass has recently gained popularity as a promising material for a
wide range of biomedical applications. Recent developments have seen CaP glasses …

In this study soluble glasses have been developed for biomedical applications containing P
2 O 5 as a network former and CaO and Na 2 O as modifiers. This study shows that as …

Four different formulations of phosphate glasses in the system P2O5–CaO–Na2O–TiO2
were developed. Their physicochemical, morphologic, and structural evolution was …

This work investigates the effect of CaO addition on physico-chemical properties,
crystallization, chemical durability and bioactivity of phosphate-based glasses. To this end …

The dissolution behavior of five series of Na 2 O–FeO–Fe 2 O 3–P 2 O 5 glasses with ranges
of O/P (3.0–3.5) and Fe/P (0.13–0.67) ratios were investigated in deionized water (DI H 2 O) …
