Description

Bioactive phosphate glasses have been widely investigated for bone repair. Phosphate glass system of 47P2O5-30.5CaO-(22.5-x)Na2O-xB2O3 has been prepared by melt quenching technique. From the Raman analysis, it is confirmed that phosphate network form metaphosphate structure. Bioactivity of the glass is studied by immersing the prepared glass in simulated body fluid (SBF). All the glasses exhibited bioactivity after soaking in SBF. Addition of B2O3 to the glass by replacing the Na2O produces considerable effect on the dielectric and bioactivity of the glass. Ion dynamics are also analyzed through imaginary modulus and imaginary dielectric permittivity. (orig.)
