In this research, bioactive glasses 60mol%SiO2-36mol%CaO-4mol%P2O5-5mol%SrO containing 0, 5, and 8 mol% zinc were synthesized by sol-gel method, and the effect of adding ZnO microstructure, in vitro bioactivity and biocompatibility was investigated. To investigate the in vitro bioactivity, glass powders were placed in the simulated body solution (SBF) for 14 days, and before and after the mentioned periods, the changes and process of hydroxyapatite (HA) phase formation on BGs surfaces, using characterization methods. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), checking the release rate of different ions by inductively coupled plasma spectroscopy (ICP_AES), pH changes, and microstructure studies using a scanning electron microscope (SEM) were investigated. In the infrared Fourier transform spectroscopic analysis of the surface of the synthesized bioactive glasses after immersion in SBF solution, phosphate and carbonate bands were detected, indicating the synthesized glasses' bioactivity. Also, the scanning electron microscope images showed that the microstructure of HA created was spherical. Finally, among all the bioactive glasses synthesized in this research, S5Z5 bioactive glass was introduced as a new multi-functional biological bio-material in bone tissue engineering due to its osteogenic, biocompatibility, and bioactivity in vitro properties.
