Crystallization of glasses with compositions (wt%) of 11.2 MgO, 33.3 SiO2, CaO, and xP20 ~ (x=18.3, 16.65, 15.825 and 15.0) resulted in a spherulitic apatite phase with different crystal morphologies. An ellipsoidal morphology was observed for x= 18.3, 16.65 and 15.825, and an anomalous morphology w

Commercial hydroxyapatite was reinforced by adding small amounts (2 and 4wt%) of P2Os-based glasses during its sintering process. The composites prepared had a chemical composition closely related to the mineral part of bone tissues in terms of trace elements usually detected, such as Na, K and Mg.
P2O5-based glass hydroxyapatite (HA) composites denoted HA-2 oxide, HA-3 oxide, and HA-4-oxide, were immersed in Hank's balanced salt solution for a period of 1, 2, 3, and 4 weeks at 37 degrees C in nonagitated condition for in vitro evaluation. A surface layer was precipitated on the composites tha
