Abstract :

Because of one phase polymers and ceramics due to their properties can not be used in bone defect repairs, attention has been focused to the development of double phase polymer and ceramics and their properties and ability to make bones. Mechanical stability and dynamical properties have been investigated. The nano bioglass which contains magnesium in sol-gel methods has been synthesized in this work. The magnesium oxide dose not have any destructive effects on preparation and specification and thermal processing but it preserves osteoporosis. FT-IR, XRD, TEM tests are under taken to observe the characteristics of synthesized Nano powder. FTIR tests were carried to evaluate the chemical links in scaffold composition. Also to observe bio-compatibility of nano-bioglass scaffold viability cell test was modeled. The results of FTIR test confirmed the chemical links in synthesized nano powders. XRD test indicated nano-bioglass powder is amorphous. TEM and SEM images showed the powder particles are 20-70 nm. The results show biodegradable and biocompatible nano–glass could be chosen as suitable substitute in bone implantation.
