## Abstract In this study, composites of β‐tricalcium phosphate (β‐TCP) and sol gel derived bioactive glass (10, 25, and 40 wt %) based on the SiO~2~‐CaO‐MgO‐P~2~O~5~ system were prepared and sintered at 1000–1200°C. The mechanical properties were investigated by measuring bending strength, Vickers
