45S5 bioglass has been widely studied in the last few decades because of its bioactivity and promising applications in the biomedical field. Boron, even few studied, represents a potential element to improve the properties ...

Electrophoretic deposition (EPD) method has been developed for the fabrication of chitosan/Bioglass and chitosan/Bioglass/TiO2 composite coatings on stainless steel substrates for biomedical applications. Microstructure, ...

Over the past few years, several tridimensional synthetic bone grafts, known as scaffolds, are being developed to overcome the autologous grafts limitations. Among the materials used on the production of scaffolds, the ...

A bioglass with composition 12%Na2O-28%CaO-50%SiO 2-10%P2O5, combined with boron carbide(B 4C), was prepared to form foam-glass. The bioglass were prepared from pure oxides and fused in an electric furnace, at 1450°C for ...

Bioglass 45S5 has been successfully implemented in clinical applications, because of its capability of developing a strong bondwith the bone tissue. However, its low mechanical strength does not allow applying it in places ...

Free standing hierarchical bioglass scaffolds were prepared by the ISISA (ice-segregation-induced self-assembly) method. Commercial low-cost precursors such as Ludox® HS-40 and cow milk were employed as the source of SiO2 ...

The objective of this work was to evaluate the influence of bioglass additions on the sintering and mechanical properties of yttria-stabilized zirconia ceramics, Y-TZP Samples containing different bioglass additions, varying ...

In this work, β-TCP (β-tricalcium phosphate) bioresorbable scaffolds were prepared by the gel casting method. Then, they were impregnated with a 45S5 bioglass sol gel solution to improve biocompatibility and promote ...
