A glass with a composition of SiO 2 80% and CaO 20% (in mol %) was prepared by the sol-gel method, and its in vitro bioactivity was studied by soaking it in simulated body fluid (SBF) at 37°C. The formation of a calcium phosphate layer on the glass was analyzed by determining the ionic concentration

✦ Synopsis
Sol-gel-derived SiO 2 and CaO-P 2 O 5 -SiO 2 have been shown to be bioactive and bone bonding. In this study bioactive sol-gel-derived SiO 2 and CaO-P 2 O 5 -SiO 2 systems were tested for in in vitro bioactivity. The calcined ceramic monoliths were immersed in a simulated body fluid and analyzed to follow the hydroxyapatite formation on the ceramic surface. Apatite-forming ability was investigated in terms of structural changes by changing the composition and the preparation method. The role of Ca and P dopants in the substrate structure is complicated, and careful characterization is needed. The composition and structure together determine the in vitro bioactivity. The pore structure was analyzed using N 2 -adsorption/desorption isotherms. The results indicate that a great mesopore volume and a wide mesopore size distribution favor hydroxycarbonate apatite nucleation and a great surface area is not needed. The performed preparation process for silica in a basic environment provides a convenient way to prepare a mesoporous material.

## Abstract The synthesis of SiO~2~‐CaO‐MgO‐P~2~O~5~ bioactive glass was carried out by the sol‐gel method. Sol‐gel derived bioglass material was crushed into powder to produce pellet disks by uniaxial pressing, followed by sintering at 900°C. The biocompatibility evaluation of the formed glass was
Glasses in the system SiO 2 -CaO-P 2 O 5 -MgO were prepared by the sol-gel method. These glasses featured SiO 2 contents in the range 60-80 mol %, 4 mol % of P 2 O 5 , and a CaO/MgO molar ratio of 4. Because of their composition and surface properties, all the glasses showed in vitro bioactivity, as
Titanium and its alloys are used widely in the manufacture of orthopedic and dental implants. Sol-gelprepared titania is able to stimulate bone-like apatite formation in in vitro and in vivo cultures. These materials can be used, for example, as coatings on dental and orthopedic implants. However, t
Titanium and its alloys have been used successfully in the manufacture of orthopedic and dental implants to replace damaged bone tissue. In this study, different solgel-derived TiO 2 coatings were produced on titanium substrates using different aging times (5, 10, 24, or 48 h) of the sol before dipp
