Nanoporous glass-ceramics were prepared with composition 45CaO-25TiO2-35P2O5 (mol%). Two molar percent of Na2O was added as a flux to the composition. With the aforementioned composition, glass melted and crystallized into glass-ceramics containing β-Ca3(PO4)2 and CaTi4(PO4)6 as the main phases. The differential thermal analysis (DTA) was conducted to determine the suitable temperatures f...

Quasi-binary phosphate-vanadate glasses have been studied by both IR spectroscopy and a novel method of molecular dynamics with non-constant force field. This is used for the self-assembly structural models glasses. The obtained glass network structure are analyzed quantitatively using element distribution number R–O–R bonds (R phosphorous or vanadium) 4-, 6-, 8-membered cycles. bends on concen...

Highly porous, ferromagnetic glass-ceramic P40-Fe3O4 microspheres (125–212 µm) with enhanced cytocompatibility have been manufactured for the first time via a facile, rapid, single-stage flame spheroidization process. Dispersions of Fe3O4 and Ca2Fe2O5 domains (≈10 embedded within P40 (40P2O5-16CaO-24MgO-20Na2O in mol%) phosphate-based glass matrices show evidence remanent magnetization (0.2 Am2...

In this work, we have studied the preparation and properties of an alumino-phosphate glass with composition 13Na2O-13K2O-16BaO-4Al2O3-54P2O5 (mol%). The first part work deals study processing conditions dehydroxylation phosphate glass, which was performed by remelting under N2 flow using graphite crucibles. Glass samples from 5 to 50 g Nd2O3 doped were submitted influence temperature, time, mas...

Phosphate-based glasses have been examined in many studies as a potential biomaterial for bone repair because of its degradation properties, which can be controlled and allow the release of various elements to promote osteogenic tissue growth. However most of these experiments studied either tertiary or quaternary glass systems. This study investigated a qinternary system that included titanium...

Boronate-containing polymer brushes were synthesized by free radical copolymerization of N,N-dimethylacrylamide (DMAA) and N-acryloyl-m-phenylboronic acid (NAAPBA) (9:1) on the surface of 3-mercaptopropyl-silylated glass plates and capillaries. The brushes were characterized with time-of-flight secondary ion mass-spectrometry (ToF SIMS), atomic force microscopy and contact angle measurements. F...

PURPOSE This in vitro study evaluated the effects of four different cements on the color attributes of a zirconia ceramic. MATERIALS AND METHODS 40 zirconia ceramic disk specimens (0.5 mm thickness, 10 mm diameter, 0.1 mm cement space) were fabricated by a computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing system. The specimens were divided into 4 groups of 10 specimens and cemented to co...
