Mechanical properties of bioactive glasses, ceramics, glass-ceramics and composites: State-of-the-art review and future challenges

Bioactive Glass Coated Zirconia for Dental Implants: a review

“…Considering the investigations by many researchers, bioactive glasses possess potential of many wide applications such as the formation of HCA and bone, but their use as materials for coating, is more attractive than other applications, especially when they are used as an implant. Their mechanical integrity becomes important [102][103][104][105] when they are used as coating on tougher substrate [106][107][108]. The studies about coatings have proved that depending on the approach of coatings and deposition, the main chemical and physical characteristics will change [109][110][111][112][113].…”

Structural and thermal behavior of 45S5 Bioglass®‐based compositions containing alumina and strontium

“…The first bioactive glass was developed by Prof. Larry Hench in 1969 and has been widely used since the 80s because of its high biocompatibility. However, due to its high crystallization tendency and consequently limitation in applications that require heat treatments, many other glasses with distinct compositions has been also largely investigated …”

“…However, due to its high crystallization tendency and consequently limitation in applications that require heat treatments, many other glasses with distinct compositions has been also largely investigated. [1][2][3][4] Glasses as a versatile material accept a large range of distinct cations in its structure and can be easily modified. However, the complexity in designing brand-new compositions as Bioglass ® 45S5 is mainly due to the fact that a number of components involved results in being more difficult to control the relationship between composition, structure, and bioactivity.…”

Comparison of Mechanical and Barrier Properties of Al2O3/TiO2/ZrO2 Layers in Oxide–Hydroxyapatite Sandwich Composite Coatings Deposited by Sol–Gel Method on Ti6Al7Nb Alloy

“…Most of them are characterized by sudden temperature changes, phase transitions, and/or rapid kinetic deposition on coated surfaces. This often leads to the formation of disordered, porous, amorphous-crystalline hydroxyapatite structures, with a high degree of defect (i.e., cracks), low cohesion, and mediocre adhesion-due to mismatching of the physicochemical properties of coatings compared to metallic substrates [23,24]. There is also a tendency to dissolve HAp coatings due to their biochemical interaction with the living tissue, which can lead to the exposure of the implant's metallic substrate [10].…”
