Abstract:
Nanoscale bioactive glasses of silicate composition are gaining increasing attention due to their superior bioactivity, enhanced osteoconductivity and antibacterial properties when compared to conventional (micron-sized) bioactive glasses. In this chapter, we present an overview of the technology, characterization and applications of nanoparticle and nanofibrous bioactive silicate glasses. Novel fabrication technologies are presented, covering sol-gel routes, microemulsion techniques, the gas phase synthesis method (flame spray synthesis), ...
